and i thought it would be great to hear your opinons..

 

wich town is the strongest..?

have you say..

 

i think that skingrad is the strongest because its divided in two,, but kvatch is also kind a strong because of its locaion on the hill..

another strong city could be bravil because of the water around the city..

I say the Imperial City is the strongest. Its the best fortified and has the most guards as well as mages, arena combatants, pirates, and bodyguards/mercenaries. Also unlike other towns it has multiple types of guards (Imperial Watch, Watch Captains, Palace Guards, Battlemages, and the Blades).

in Vanilla Oblivion i would say either Skingrad, since thats the main place my Char lives also it got a powerful Vampire mage for a count. Or IC since its heavily forified and as DeathWarrior said, loads of guards and other fighting people.

 

in modded Oblivion i would say Kvatch since it's MY city and im its count

I'd also say the Imperial City. Surrounded by water, home of the Arcane University and its battlemage guard, districts are walled-off from one-another, and by virtue of being the biggest city it has the most guards. It's also smack in the middle of Cyrodiil, which means an invasion force has a long way to go to reach it, and the river is much too small for a naval assault to get through. The bridges to the University and Prison are unfortunately easy to climb up to if you haven't been detected, though.

as in defending? npc atticks?

 

Bruma: one of the worse even with Horus-Re's help take one of the gates and then you win the caslte is poorly defended very little of brumas desgin could help the guard

 

Bruma Castle: possable the best place to defend if the guard got there frist and build up a blockcade they migh have a small chance of living

 

Chorrol: due to its size and open space it makes easy to defend bows from both atticker and defender and since a small bit of chorrol is on a hill it gives the guard a bit of a advangte to mow down the attackers + the fighters guild will bound to send help

 

Castle Chorrol: due to its size defending it will be easy if the guard manged to arrow them as they come thou the doors then they might win

 

Bravil: its large spaces allow easy defending and it can cut bits of the bravil off by cutting the bridges allowing the guard on the isle or the casle to bow them from the isle mages guild has the school of illusion there and little fighters guild members so they cant be counted

 

Bravil Casltle : its simple desgin makes it easy to take over count will be dead in miniites

 

Leyawin: simple space make it easy for the attickers to hide the guard is 2nd to useless after you kill the captain of the guard...

 

Castle: Leyawin: its small easly taken over

 

More later

Strongest City:

 

Imperial City. Heavily Fortified and ALOt of guards.

 

Easiest City to Defend:

 

Bravil: because of motes and bridges.

My first impulse would be to say the IC, but with its size,its defenders would be spread out and gaps in the coverage could appear...

Anvil town would be easy to evacuate to the castle and once the gates are closed easy to defend as water makes a lot of attacks hard. Skingrad too easy once a gate is breeched, no gates remain and the castle is too remote to provide aid.

Bruma would be my second choise.

Seems to me an army would have trouble reaching anything aside from the front gate and, with a lot of preparation, maybe the waterfront, (All the other walls are up against a sheer cliff) and once they get in their movements would be hampered by the city's modular design. I imagine the guards would have plenty of time to redeploy as individual districts fell.

 

Anvil town would be easy to evacuate to the castle and once the gates are closed easy to defend as water makes a lot of attacks hard.
Another way of looking at that is "A naval attack force would be right up against the castle or could land in the harbor before anything could be done about it."

 

Bruma would be my second choise.
Unless the attackers are coming from the north. Then they would come in right between the castle and the rest of the city, making evacuation to the castle very difficult. It's also wide enough up there that the city guards would have trouble doing any sort of pincer move with the castle guards.
