Which effect amplified the vulnerability of Roman castra fortifications against siege ladders?

💡 Explanation

Regular tower spacing created blind spots as ladder placement exploited the limited archer firing angles between towers. Therefore tower spacing caused vulnerability, rather than wall height, gate construction, or ditch depth which would require different tactical exploits.
