1. So, you have a
city.
The first thing you are introduced to (aside from
the help menu) is your main city, which holds many
buildings:
A. Main Building-controls the amount of people you receive
per hour in your city, as well as the maximum number of
people you can hold. Upgrading the Main Building gives you
more people per hour, plus a larger amount of people can be
held. They're used for upgrading other buildings, and are
also used to make troops. Somebody has to do it, right?
B. Barracks-controls making of troops including infantry,
cavalry, archers, and catapults. Upgrading increases the
speed in which troops are created.
C. Stone Mine-creates stone used in upgrading resources,
creating soldiers, and building defenses.
D. Cropland-creates wheat used to feed your soldiers, as
well as upgrading resources, creating soldiers, and building
defenses. Creating one soldier subtracts one wheat resource
per hour, so upgrading this is essential for a large army.
E. Iron Mine-creates iron used in upgrading resources,
creating soldiers, and building defenses. |

F. Lumber Mill-creates wood used in upgrading resources,
creating soldiers, and building defenses.
G. Tech Center-holds technology upgrades to enhance the
speed of resources, shooting abilities, scouting abilities,
defenses, marching speed, attack, and defensive skills.
Upgrading technology only requires money, but is largely
time consuming and costs more per level of upgrade.
H. City Wall-holds defensive weaponry including traps, and
gun turrets (even though they didn't have guns at that time
period 
)
I. Cranny-holds resources from others who have attacked you
and win against you. Upgrading the cranny increases the
amount of resources held from them.
J. Warehouse-controls the amount of resources you can hold at
one time. Upgrading increases the amount that can be held,
which is extremely useful to upgrade if you don't plan on
visiting the game very often a.k.a. the passive player.
K. Marketplace-obviously, this is the place where you sell
your goods and treasures to other players, and is the center
of the economy. Prices go up and down |
