A Guardpost is an unlockable law building where - as the name would imply - citizens act as guards where they patrol areas to dissuade others from breaking the law, or pursue citizens who have committed a crime and bringing them to justice. The building becomes available once a settlement reaches a population of 200. Each guardpost as a predetermined radius of which guards operate. Unlike most buildings, there are no components. The guardpost only comes in one unchangeable size, being a 6×6 square.
Criminals caught by a guard will then be taken to a court, where a judge will determine the proper punishment. During the night, a fire will be lit in the center of a guardpost, aesthetically providing sufficient light in the area, but not in the same manner that a torch would.
