The Keep is the strongest of the standard towers. The Bombard Tower is a seperate but much more powerful tower; however, Keeps are cheaper, and fire faster. Keeps fire a heavier arrow and are very good against ships and lancers, but do not fire farther than any other tower. Bohemian Keeps have +2 range (from civ bonuses), while Welsh ones have +2 attack (from a unique tech) and Burgundian ones garrison ten units instead of five and allow additional arrows to be fired when infantry are garrisoned.
