Allowing arrowslits to buff castles and town centers on top of towers will buff non archer civs(and archer civs to a degree) by increasing defensive structure damage without increasing range.

That would be interesting. I think for castles it shouldn’t increase the dmg too much because they are already pretty powerful, but i agree that it should affect town centers and castles. I am yet to see someone making towers in Imp age in a normal ranked game.
Lithuanians would have pretty cool TCs, and Malians too! unfortunately none of these civs have arrowslits, so it’s moot -_-’
Wait a sec, are you suggesting this just to make your teuton fortress even stronger?

I use the same basic principles for all civs(playstyle is the same) but yes, it would buff teutons considerably defensively. That being said, lithuanians have full attack/range upgrades, so they’re set even without arrowslits. Tho for malians I’d give them arrowslits - arguably all civs without the last arrow upgrade would do well to have it, and those with full upgrades may do well to lose it, except a few key civs depending on balance.
Oh i see! So you can plant your giant Teuton fortress in the middle of the map and have some ez wins! 
I tell you what, i’m for it, but since Teutons already have castles with tons of range and buffed siege, they no longer have access to arrowslits 
otherwise it would be crazy, and we don’t want that! 
Tbh i don’t think i’ve ever researched arrowslits.
As long as they regain their extra range town centers sometime in castle age (transferred from Lithuanians) and buff the liths’ version - I’d be fine with that.
