Research for defenders
Defense Fortifications is the defending counterpart to Siege to Seize. Defense Counterattack, Fortified Defense and Standing Firm strengthen your heroes when they defend in PvP, and the branch adds an extra Hospital, more Hospital capacity and healing, resource protection and fewer Drill Grounds losses when your base is breached. It is the natural pick if you are more often the target than the attacker.
