Sorry if this has been posted somewhere, but I can't seem to find it via search.

What is the full cost of building a Fort?

2 Supply Units
4 Artillery Units
Active General


Anything else? Money, Conscripts, WS? I tried looking through the database but I want to confirm what others have done to be successful. Thanks!

There is a decent thread on forts here.

Here is some basic info on forts and redoubts:

The main difference between forts and redoubts is that forts can be built in regions without cities.

Redoubts come from RGD cards. Forts come from manual construction.

Forts require 4 artillery and 4 supply elements to be built. Takes 25 days.

Forts can be upgraded once with an additional 4 artillery and 4 supply elements. Takes 15 days.

Level 1 forts can be destroyed with orders. Level 2 forts and redoubts can not.

Redoubts and level 1 forts can fit 25 elements without overcrowding penalties.

Level 2 forts can fit 50 elements without overcrowding penalties.

I've added a last post to the thread Cardinal Ape referenced What is the difference between a redoubt and a fort? to make it more concise. You may want to read at least post #25.
