Not Enough Walls?

[Hyperion]

I feel that we are not given enough walls, particularly at the lower ages (like Iron Age). You can not make anything interesting enough to cover the base, even in a basic defensive manner.

I tried just protecting the important buildings but even then, it's not enough walls to do anything proper or strategic.

While the exact number of Walls per Age could be played around with still, I like that one cannot purchase enough to cover one's entire base. As a player it first and foremost forces you to protect key areas of your empire, organizing and compacting as you ho. This approach can also be used as offensive defence in the sense that you try to 'channel' attackers to follow a particular path, that of least resistance relative to Wall placements, and right into your Caltrops and Spike Traps for instance.
