[gameplay] remove wall tower attack

Summary

This patch is split off from D2769, which requires art changes to proceed.
Currently wall towers are cheaper and have much more health than free-standing towers. They don't shoot arrows by default, but can when garrisoned, though their damage is limited (8 per second, vs up to 27 for a small tower, up to 54 for a large tower, and up to 84 for an Iberian tower). Nevertheless, wall towers are first and foremost walls, and having them double as towers is poor design.
This patch removes the <Attack> and related nodes from wall towers, as is already done for those of the Britons and Gauls, improving consistency.
To compensate, their cost and loot is lowered, giving it the same cost-to-health ratio as other wall pieces.

Test Plan

Check for completeness and correctness. Agree this is an improvement.

I really like this. Ok, is less realistic but for gameplay it is better, gives the towers greater importance and also makes less op turtle maps.

I see no reasons why wall towers should keep 4K HP (equivalent to long wall pieces) when short-wall pieces, which block more ground, are 1000 HP. I would suggest reducing their HP to 1000 or 1500, as I did in D3466/D3465, and their cost accordingly to 12 or 18.

I also see no reason they would hold more garrison than equivalently sized wall pieces (IIRC women can use wall turrets to garrison inside, which I think is _also_ poor design and should be removed).

Other than that I completely agree with this.

(Actually it's 4000, 3000, 2500, 2000, 1000 health for the tower, long, gate, medium, and short wall segments.)

It depends what you consider “equivalently sized”; wall towers are thicker and taller. Currently long wall segments can host 8 soldiers, medium 4, short 0. There is room for 12, 8, 4 (or even more), but the length of the short segment is left empty because of overlap with wall towers. 4 seems a reasonable number for wall towers.

See my answer at https://code.wildfiregames.com/D3465#153373:

They're the thickest and strongest points, protecting nearby sections (e.g. those of Lugo).
When attempting to breach city walls, one targets the weakest section. If wall towers were to have less health, then those would be targetted instead of gates or long segments, despite the latter having larger footprints and thus larger openings.
Rebuilding a short, medium, or long segment in game is quite easy, but rebuilding a destroyed wall tower is rather annoying, you basically need to demolish the adjecent pieces too,

(Actually it's 4000, 3000, 2500, 2000, 1000 health for the tower, long, gate, medium, and short wall segments.)

I think 4000 is still completely unreasonable. I acknowledge it's more realistic, but gameplay matters more. IMO the correct value in 0 A.D. is somewhere in the 1000-2000HP range, not more.
While you're right that they're more annoying to rebuild, they're also not guaranteed to open any hole in the walls for the pathfinder to find, so it's potentially just wasted time.

Currently long wall segments can host 8 soldiers, medium 4, short 0.[...] 4 seems a reasonable number for wall towers.

Ok, agreed then.

Thanks, I missed that.

Gameplay is exactly the reason why it's important that wall towers have more health than other wall segments. As you pointed out, targetting wall towers can be a waste of time. Targetting gates or long walls is more efficient, therefore that should be encouraged, and having less health does exactly that. Also, the AI doesn't take footprints or obstruction sizes into account.
Furthermore, when building walls, there are more wall towers than other wall pieces taken together. Consequently, those having the highest health and consequently the highest costs works as a check on building walls. Reducing it can only result in making walls being built even more quickly than they are already.

? Long walls have the most HP. Gates are indeed weaker for historical/encouragement reasons, but long walls have more HP exactly to compensate their larger obstruction size.

We ought to increase the general cost of walls following this diff, so I don't think this is particularly relevant, but you're certainly correct that it makes walls overall much cheaper.

No, wall towers have more health (4000) than long walls (3000). That's always been the case, for good reason, and should stay as is.

Well, I wouldn't mind doubling their costs and time, however, even it would be increased a hundredfold, my previous remark remains true: wall towers are the single most important segment that determines the total costs of walls.

For me the health of the wall towers are not very relevant for this patch and should be done in another one if necessary. The patch is complete and correct and an improvement to the gameplay.

I disagree with both of these statements :P .
I think wall health should be reduced, and its cost should be reduced. That being said, I have no problems with the rest of the patch and it's standardised, so I'll commit.
