The Southron Fortress was a large structure that spawned in both the major regions of Near Harad (fertile and desert) and contained a large amount of bonuses for those aligned with the Southrons.
In updates since Update 34, this fortress only survives as a ruin (see here), as in that update Near Harad was split into several sub-factions and this fortress became deprecated.
Structure[]
This fortress was made of Haradric brick and walls and had a date palm tree on the highest turret. Inside, there were a few food items, a barrel of araq, two armour stands, both a regular crafting table and a Haradric crafting table as well as a furnace and two baskets with some food, drink and everyday items. Underneath the stairs were another two baskets that had items more unique to the Southrons, generally equipment based.
Along the front outer wall were a series of Southron banners.
Traders[]
On the top floor of the fortress was a Southron warlord that you could hire Southron units from if your Near Harad alignment was high enough.
History[]
This structure was added in Public Beta 18 as the "Near Harad Fortress" in a first Near Harad redesign. In Public Beta 32 it was renamed "Southron Fortress" as all Near Harad related content was renamed similarly. Finally, it was removed in Update 34 during a complete redesign of Near Harad. Fortunately the structure survived as a half-buried ruin which contains a lot of loot.
