Some of you have asked what the um… "Oil Refinery looking" thing is on your
map… (are my graphics that bad?)



These are either a lighthouse or a watchtower! (hopefully you can tell
which it is – tho they are functionally equivalent, I just put watchtowers
if inland, or lighthouses if coastal). It watches over the two spaces next
to it, and keeps them lit up on every map you receive. This makes it harder
to sneak up on these key cities. If it's unclear, feel free to ask. This
is a new feature for FOW IV, after having seen some brutal surprise stabs in
games past.



If your lighthouse or watchtower is captured, it does NOT operate for enemy
occupiers but will stop working for you. If you can liberate the city, it
would resume operation.



Enjoy,
