—In-game description |
The Wall is a defensive structure in Age of Empires III. Available in the Exploration Age, its purpose is to protect an area from enemy attacks. The Wall is available to all civilizations in the Exploration Age, except the Lakota, who can build it from the Industrial Age*.
A Gate can be upgraded on a Wall section which lets through own units and allied units, but never enemy units.
The Church or Wall itself provides the Bastion upgrade, along with the appropriate Gates for stone Walls.

History[]
“ | Early fortifications in the New World were palisades constructed of sharpened tree trunks driven into the ground side by side to form walls. Some of these palisade walls, especially when a little green, were remarkably effective at withstanding bombardment by artillery because they could flex as they were hit, rather than splintering, like dried wood, or shattering, like masonry walls. More effective than either wood or stone at withstanding bombardment were the bermed earthworks famously ringing star forts like Fort McHenry. A fort in the era of cannon was a series of sculpted plains, ditches, bastions, and walls of earth and stone that maximized lines of sight and fire for defenders. | ” |
