{{About|This article refers to the adventure map location "[[Garrison]]", not the similar sounding hero "[[Gurnisson]]".}}
An [[Adventure map]] object used for storing armies. Enemy heroes can't pass the garrison without fighting the armies stationed in it. Garrisons can be aligned both horizontally and vertically. Since the creatures in it neither have the benefit of a hero leading them nor the defensive structures of a [[Town]] with a [[Fort]] built in it, they tend not to be of much use.

'''Garrison''' is a defensive location on the [[adventure map]], generally used to guard a terrain ‘bottleneck’ on a map.
'''Warning:''' Mapmakers may set up a garrison so that the units stationed in it cannot leave. Make sure that isn't the case before storing anything you might want to use later on in them.


Up to seven stacks of creatures can be deposited in a Garrison. Players owning the Garrison and allies can travel through it without fighting the Garrison's force. However, an enemy must first defeat the Garrison's force before they can pass it. Garrisons without defense not belonging to the player or its allies should be flagged prior to passing, i.e you cannot figure out the route to a map object standing beyond that garrison, until you conquer it (which may cause misleading situations in which something important appears to be inaccessible or requiring long travel, while in fact it is close to you). Heroes cannot occupy a Garrison.


With the exception of the Anti-Magic Garrison (no spell may be cast during combat there), Garrisons do not give special defenses like walls, moats, or arrow towers.

== Check Box: Troops Are Removable ==
[[Category:Adventure map]]
 
This checkbox can only be used after installing {{ab}}. It only appears in the [[map editor]].
 
Removing troops from a Garrison is set by default, but can be unchecked to ensure that the creatures stay in the Garrison. If the map-editor does not want a player, human or computer to take the troops from a particular Garrison, then the map-editor can simply uncheck this box and the troops will remain there until they die in a combat. New troops can be put into such a Garrison by a player, but can't be taken back once added.
 
If the troops in the garrison are removable, there will be a flag on the first slot of the garrison. Otherwise, the troops are irremovable.
