Rampart is a good alignment town with the Ranger and Druid hero classes. Rampart represents AvLee.
"The Druid and Ranger hero classes are native to Ramparts, which are built by creatures in allied defense of the unspoiled wilderness regions of Erathia. With two slow unit types, Dwarves and Dendroids, Rampart armies may be best suited to defensive tactics. Most of these creatures, however, have enemy hampering abilities that can be used to turn the tide against many opponents — especially those dependent on magical attacks." RoE manual
Rampart's native terrain is grass.

Necromancy and Fire Magic are not available for rangers.
Necromancy and Interference areis not available for druids.

Town names[edit | hide]

Bath'iere | Ceiliedgh | Elfwind | Emerald Moor |
Forest | Forest Glen | Fortune Keep | Gladeroot |
Green Falls | Marishen | Rainhaven | Serenity |
Still Water | Strongglen | Wild Willow | Wise Oak |
If there are more Rampart towns on the map than possible names, they will use names taken from other towns.
The Rampart [edit | hide]
The following is a short story that was written by a New World Computing employee and published on the now-defunct fansite "The Nether Gods".
- To start with, the Rangers and Druids no longer serve as troops in the armies of Erathia. Instead, they have risen to join the elite few who become heroes of this land, and it is the creatures of the Ramparts who now serve them.
- Whenever a new Rampart is constructed, it is the gentle Centaurs and sturdy Dwarves who arrive first to pledge their loyalty. In fact, once you offer proper training to the Dwarves, they will begin to "horde," bringing both additional units and income to your city.
- Before you know it, Elves will begin to join your city, Wood Elves at first, then Grand Elves as time passes. More amazingly, once they are convinced of the cause you fight for, the Elves will begin to bring to the Rampart their great Pegasi mounts, creatures both beautiful and deadly, to join your armies.
- One day you will suddenly find yourself surprised when you learn that apparently overnight, the trees themselves have come alive! Great and noble Treefolk, who you discover have been watching your progress very carefully, offer to join your ranks, and as word of your success spreads throughout the forest, mystical Unicorns will show themselves, also ready to do battle in the name of good.
- But it does not end there. When at last word of your heroic deeds reaches the far corners of the world, massive Green Dragons, and their elder Golden kin, will begin to arrive. Your success is almost assured!
- Beautiful, noble and elegant. These are the traits that can be found uniformly in the creatures that inhabit the Rampart cities of Erathia.
- So ends our discussion for today. If you have any requests for which of Erathia's cities you would like to learn about next, please voice them here."
