Freeguild Fortress
From Age of Sigmar - Lexicanum
Fortresses and Forts are constructed all across the territories held by Sigmar's empire, whether along the borders or within the grand Free Cities, many of these are garrisoned by regiments and companies of Freeguild soldiers. Such fortresses tend to be placed in locations of incredible strategic, economic, or spiritual value.[2a][3a][4a][5a]
Structure
Fortresses of the Freeguilds are typified for having segmented gatehouses, with heavily armoured gates[1a] and sturdy, stone walls.[7a]
