'''Lighthouse''' is a [[Castle]] specific building which is increasing [[movement]] points by +500 when heroes move on [[water]] [[tile]] with a [[boat]]. The bonus is cumulative meaning that owning two Lighthouse increases all heroes' movement points by +1000 on water. The bonus is calculated after a possible bonus from [[Navigation]] skill. In other words, Navigation only affects the base movement on water.
Lighthouse can only be built in cities with access to water, meaning that adjacent to the garrison tile must be at least one tile of water.
'''Bug:''' a Lighthouse built in a [[Castle]] gives water movement bonus to all players: an owner, allies and enemies (fixed in {{hota}}).

Lighthouses on the [[adventure map]] have the same effect (except there is no "movement points for everyone" bug).
'''Pillar of Fire''' is an [[adventure map]] location, where a visiting hero can see "Distant Lands", as the description states. It means, that everything within a 20 square radius is revealed for the player. Even areas clouded by a [[Cover of Darkness]] will be revealed, though they will be overclouded again at the beginning of the next day. Pillar of Fire is basically an underground version of the [[Redwood Observatory]], though it can be used above ground as well.  


They can be located on dry land or directly on water. Lighthouses found on adventure map counts as a [[mine]] if the [[Victory conditions|special victory]] is "flag all mines".
Additionally, [[Observation Tower]] in {{hota}}{{-wh}} has a similar effect.
