ORIGINAL: BofH
My understanding is that troops entering and defending buildings are abstracted: rather than spend a lot of time developing animations of sprites passing through doorways/entrances, we get 'permeable walls'. They do indeed fight back when inside - once again this is abstracted to some degree. Everything is a trade off - SOW games give us (comparatively) good AI and extremely large scaled battles practically limited only by your PCs capabilities, while having only 2d sprites and less focus on eye candy. Abstractions aside the game looks grand and beautiful.
Thank you, that's a very good answer.
We'd like to do more to improve those things visually (and hope to in a future patch or release). But like BofH stated, there is a trade off in this area and some things are a bit abstracted. We wanted to design a solid system that is both fun and visually pleasing, and we will continue to improve on it wherever we can.
