| Battle | A Rampart provides protection along the two forward facing hex sides. |
| Close Combat | When attacked by an enemy unit across a hex side with a rampart, the defending unit disregards one sword symbol and may disregard one flag rolled against the unit. Note that the defending unit does not receive rampart protection when the enemy unit is not attacking across a hex side with the rampart (normally this is from a hex directly to the side or directly behind the two rampart protected hex sides). |
| Range Combat | A unit attacked through a forward facing rampart hexside may disregard one flag rolled against it. Note: mounted units receive no protective benefit from rampart. |
| Line of Sight | A rampart hexside does not block line of sight. |
NOTE: mounted units receive no protective benefit from ramparts.
