Oh! Yes, this is an interesting case. Towns actually slot into the battle as one-letter words, so this case FEN is long enough. It doesn't come up much, but it might deserve elaboration in an "advanced" tutorial since it's unexpected.

Or have you considered not having towns work that way? Seems like a confusing caveat to me, unless there is a good reason for it.

[liambigelow]

Yeah that's probably the best solution.
