Town typically refers to a structure on an Adventure Map, where heroes can recruit troops, replenish their spell points, and learn new spells. More generally, it can refer to one of the nine different town types, that can be seen in the table on the right. In 埃拉西亚的光复, there were only eight different town types, but 末日之刃 expansion added Conflux. Moreover, unofficial Horn of the Abyss expansion added Cove. Every player must own at least one town, so as to remain in contention for any amount of time until winning or losing the scenario. If a player loses the control of his last town, or if a player starts with no towns, he has time for seven days to conquer at least one town, otherwise being eliminated from the game. A map without towns is therefore largely undesirable, though not fully unplayable.

Towns are also important source of gold with hall buildings producing it every day for the kingdom. If a town has a marketplace, a player may trade surplus resources for needed ones, and Resource Silo produces resources daily (but not gold). Towns have horde buildings which increase units' growth. Buildings unique to each of the town types can provide additional strengths and abilities for heroes and units, produce resources, or support the gameplay on the adventure map.

Town with fort, citadel or castle have walls surrounding them, and can be defended by heroes in a siege battle. Other town defending structures that come with the fortifications are arrow towers and moat. Heroes can be located inside the town and inside the walls to protect the town. If a non-fortified town is sieged, a traditional battlefield is shown, as if the combat were not in a town.

Each town has its own musical theme. Nine common towns have themes written by Paul Romero, while music for HotA's Cove is written by Docent Picolan.

Maximum number of towns is 48 on any map.

Towns on adventure map

In 死亡阴影 there are just three visual appearances of a town: Village, Fort and Capitol (as a Fort with a flag). But the exact fortification level (fort/citadel/castle) always can be checked by an icon in the rightclick menu (the hall level is visible just for allies).

Horn of the Abyss represents towns accurately to their level of fortification.
