A little help please - I've placed them around a substantial amount of my city - however i've had to span a river - so I've walled off the road with a gatehouse etc but they still think they're unprotected..

This is narbo btw - imagine i've spaned from the smallest fertile area, through the hilly central bit, and cut past just before the largest fertile area, then walled off the other side of the bridge...

you have to go to the river as close as the walls go, the bridge if any need a gate in front with walls at the side which go to the river edge and check carefully if there is any gap in the wall, as tiny as it can be.

Is there wall along the river on the same side as the first part of your city? The wall must be completely around your city for them to feel secure.

Ok, i sorted it - Be careful regarding small gaps in the walls, believe me - barbarian raiders can fold down paper thin and be posted through the cracks according to my equites..

This is incorrect, you may just connect to the river, then cordon off any bridges.. (on either side of the river)

Right that was was the point I was driving at. If one side of the city was exposed next to the river the walls would be incomplete.
