You have to keep in mind the intended encounter size for fortress attacks and city sieges... if both sides of the force are thinned out, and the attackers don't have the necessary wards/etc., those keeps and fortresses are never gonna drop. I really don't think Mythic's intention is to cut down the size of the battles currently happening, though; I'm sure their aim must be to cut down on the crashes via optimization... the bottlenecking that's happening right now is unintentional and probably driving them crazy :) Heh, I’m not even sure they could field enough to take on a keep lord, let alone a fortress lord.

You would thin the population.. but also the size of the attacking and defending forces in a fortress siege will probably be thinned... This blade has really two sharp sides.. Handle it with care. On the other hand.. servers with 9 rank 40 chars on will most likely not have any stability issues in fortress attacks ;) There is no easy answer to the question if adding the remaining capital cities would help WAR. It will definetly not cure everything, but multiple war-fronts might help at fortress fights as they don't become such bottlenecks that they are right now. Well..
