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

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.
