Yea, it needed more info in it, such as the fact that moats do not have to only have water in them. i have fixed that... to some extent. --CombatWombat 07:22, 28 January 2008 (EST)
- I'm pretty sure that an empty channel is just as impassable as a water-filled one. --Mitchy 10:13, 28 January 2008 (EST)
though an empty channel is not called a moat, it is a channel. --CombatWombat 02:04, 29 January 2008 (EST)
- Unless there's an in-game reference calling anything a moat, then I wouldn't say an empty moat isn't a moat. I would say the distinction between moat and channel is largely on it's primary function. If it's intended to be a defensive emplacement, then it's certainly a moat. If it's intended to move a fluid on the otherhand, then it's probably a channel. Obviously, something can be both at once, though I'd always place the defensive value above the convenience value. --Edward 07:17, 29 January 2008 (EST)
Made some edits. I have no problem with fun-style writing and a little fantasy, but the content should be accurate and not misleading. --Koltom 20:49, 19 February 2008 (EST)
