- | There are a number of [[rituals]] that can construct a fort in a single turn during the magic phase. These ritual forts will land before any movement-phase attacks and are therefore capable of immediately preventing the province from being taken without a siege, making ritual forts critical to many a mid- to late game throne rush. However, given the fact that all rituals occur in a random order, other rituals are capable of interrupting the casting of a ritual fort by killing the caster or taking the target province. | + | There are a number of [[rituals]] that can construct a fort in a single turn during the magic phase.

Note that ritual forts cannot be cast on top of existing forts -- the fort must be demolished before a ritual can be used to replace it. | Note that ritual forts cannot be cast on top of existing forts -- the fort must be demolished before a ritual can be used to replace it. | ||
