Sea Fortification

The Sea Fortification is a defensive tower in Age of Empires II HD: The African Kingdoms.

It cannot be constructed by the player by any means, but it is available in the Scenario Editor. It is similar to The Tower of Flies in many aspects, including its health regeneration feature.

It appears to take a 2x2 space, but in reality it actually consumes an 1x1 space like all towers. Appearance-wise, it appears as a sandstone tower in the African architecture (the architecture used by Ethiopians and Malians) added in The African Kingdoms, regardless of civilization. However, in  Age of Empires II HD: Rise of the Rajas,  the Southeast Asian civilizations (Burmese, Khmer, Malay and Vietnamese) get their own Sea Fortification graphics.

It can be found in the last mission of the Sundjata campaign, The Lion's Den, where they are owned by the enemy and present in the sea between the player and Koumbi Saleh, and in the coastline of the latter. They are present as defensive towers that outrange all ships, including Cannon Galleons.
