Castle Stairs

When placed adjacent to a wall of any height or type, they allow military units to climb atop the wall and any adjacent walls or Wood Gate or Stone Gate.

Military units may walk on walls of any and even alternating heights, Wood Castle Block, Castle Block, Wood Gate, Stone Gate, and any combination thereof. They will enter through the most convenient staircase. Vikings may also traverse walls using the staircases, making it advisable to only have Castle Stairs located within the walls and not adjacent to the common attack points.

Peasants do not currently walk on walls - even if it would be more efficient.

Aesthetically, when placed near a wall that is one block high, they ramp directly to the wall. When the wall is any higher, they make a doorway for the units to walk through and onto the wall. Adjacent walls of alternating heights that have Castle Stairs connected will gain doorways to allow the units to walk to them. When placed at the very edge of a row of single-height blocks, the corner block will lose its square shape and become elongated as though connected to another portion of a wall. Adjacent Castle Stairs do not link together. When placed in an internal corner adjacent to two walls, the stairs will curve around the corner and create two entry points. The highest portion of any wall has no notable entryway, units simply appear as though climbing from within.
