Within the city builders of The Convocation of Malqort, there are three types of forts:
1. Towers
2. Camps
3. Forts

A tower is three stories tall, with space for livestock, people, and supplies. The roof is a watch tower. The entire thing is about 20 meters on a side. Generally, 20 people live here and there's room for 100. These are built each day's march from each other along the Road. This easily controls an area out to 100 meters.

A Camp starts with a Tower, built another story tall and with out buildings. There's a fence at 100 meters, and the Tower is now four stories. Generally, 100 people live here and there's room for 500. These are built at intersections of Roads. This easily controls an area out to 500 meters.

A Fort is built from a Camp. The inner Tower has another floor, and there is specialization in each quadrant. Generally, 500 people live here and there's room for 2,500. These are only built at strategically important zones, and often include a Naval component. This easly controls an area out to 2,500 meters.

These are each essentially military camps, used to project forward power of the Convocation. Towns and Cities send out groups of ~20 people and ~20 Lifeless to build roads, towers, and Camps. Building a Fort is a bigger deal, and often is used as the nuclear of larger towns and cities.

Towns are much more organic, and usually include Insulae, bathouses, and other specialty locations designed to keep a population healthy.
