Monarchy: Max number of towns without letting corruption kill you

Hello guys, I want to know those of you who runs monarchy, how many towns you have? And can I have unlimited number of towns if they are all one cell away from each other? Or I must stop at a certain point?

I was able to do 7 towns with 0 corruption. I think if I could have continued to have 1 cell separating each town, I could have gone on indefinitely. Did build 8th outside the one cell separation for the achievement, then destroyed it because of corruption

Got it, so I have to follow the one-cell rule 100 percent. Thank you

Yes - but this won't let you build unlimited numbers of towns, because at some point the terrain will mean you have no more spaces available to build on that are only one cell away (e.g. all the one-cell-away cells might be mountains or swamps or other un-buildable cell types). So the maximum number of towns that you can build, without experiencing any corruption, will vary from hero to hero and will depend on the terrain around your dwelling.
