Towers spawn at least one guard no matter the quality

I have removed this information from the Guard tower page:

It would seem that this is incorrect as sub 10ql towers do not seem to be spawning guards.

If further confirmation is possible please notate and comment. Thanks! ~ Levedara Oct 19/2008

The Test was done at -100 , -75 , - 70 , -50 and -30

Tower guards don`t respond below -30 , same as the spirit Templar

Something should said about being able to put unfinished towers in inventory. -- Kanif 14:04, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

Range

I've been testing and it seems guard response range is exactly 20 tiles. However only one guard answered per call on this distance. Aldur (talk) 10:25, 1 July 2012 (CDT)Aldur

Positioning

A B C D E F G H I

I stood in the north east corner of E, facing I, when I attached the last component. The tower was created on "E" with the door facing "F". This does not coincide with what the wiki page says will happen when you finish a tower. If someone else could try a different position while creating their guard tower, just to test, we might be able to explain conclusively how to place a tower as desired.
