Fortress of Redemption

The 'Standard' Imperial Fortress. Apparently.

Maybe there are designs for other variants such as Fortresses of Absolution or Salvation, etc. etc. But in all truth, No One Knows! Also, who would design a fortress like this? It lacks dakka, has fire points on only one side and has only one entrance/exit stock and said entrance/exit is on the side that doesn't have fire points and is hidden from most of the battlements by a giant tower(slow clap). To cap it all off the part of the fortress with the greatest vantage point and the greatest population capacity, the tower with 20 infantry slots, hasn't got a single fire point at all. '

Hay! 'Standard' does not mean 'good'.

On the Tabletop

The Fortress of Redemption is made up of four buildings, all of which are AV14. There are three small buildings (one of which is the walkway), and one large building (tower). As it comes Stock, it has a Fragstorm missile launcher silo and a Twin-linked Icarus Lascannon turret, both of which are fired from the two bunker annexes at either end of the walkway.

From the Stronghold Assault book - it can be upgraded with a variety of things such as

  • Up to 4 Heavy Bolters .
  • Upgrade the Missile Silo to allow it to fire Krakstorm Missiles.
  • Targeting Controls to allow the Missile Silo and Lascannon turret to be fired from the Main Tower.
  • Upgrade Auto-firing AI to BS3.

Also you can add a lot of other upgrades that are universal to all fortifications from the Stronghold Assault book such as Void Shields, barricades, extra Quad Gun or an escape tunnel etc. but you have to purchase them seperately for each part, which bloats the already high point cost even more.
