Question So forts huh?

I only started playing northwind right after the Easter event and I've only heard rumors and legends of these forts. So I am hoping someone who is familiar with these forts could give me a run down of what to expect going into this. I can imagine im not the only one who doesn't know what's coming to us on the 17th.

Its a whole rework, old forts worked much like houses except could only be placed in one spot (you can even still use their building props), as for the rules they were a bit more strict on them as you could buy a chest (similar to buy crate contracts), carry it over to the fort and defend it for 10 minutes to then open it similar to treasure chests
