"Cities are very large, powerful, and well defended. They are"
"basically capital cities, or something in a comparable range. (New York"
"and San Francisco are cities, Salt Lake City and San Antonio are towns."
"Yeah, San Antonio has a lot of people, but it's still insignificant,"
"nyah nyah.) A city is worth five towns, territory-wise."
