Choosing the basic path (at city lvl 2)


City Level 2
reached at 50 Population
Choose City Specialization
When to go this path?
Conclave
3 Research, 2 Production, 2 Gildar
has exclusive buildings to enhance research and mana gain
whenever in doubt; 2+ essences would be good
Fortress
2 Research, 8 Production, 2 Gildar, +1 Level for Trained Units
has exclusive buildings to enhance trained units and lower their costs
lot of materials; have one with 2+ essences to train units there
Town
2 Research, 2 Production, 4 Gildar, +1 ZoC
has exclusive buildings to enhance economy and growth (in all cities)
lot of grain, no essence, when other cities need to grow
Conclave
Level 3
reached at 150 Population
rating
Archivist
+50% Research when the city is Producing Research
okay/situational
Oracle
+1 Essence in this city
very good

+20% Research in this city (and some Spell Scrolls can be bought in the shop by Champions)
bad

Level 4

rating
Academy of Revelation
+10% Research for your faction
good (especially on large maps)
Amethyst Vault
+2 Crystal per season
okay; good if in dire need of crystals/on small maps
Tenfell University
Unrest doesn't affect Research (in this city)
poo

Level 5

reached at 150 Population
rating
Infirmary
Trained units get +1 Hit Point per level (Endurance trait); Stationed units heal +10 Hit Points per season

very good (this game is all about Initiative!)
Watchtower
Trained units get +1 Move and +2 Attack on the first action of combat (Charge trait); 1 catapult for city defense
very good, but you should create your units with Charge. And since they already have it then, Watchtower does nothing (doesn't stack).

I don't remember the exact details @Piorun22, but I believe on higher difficulties you don't have the resources for that.

How soon do I need to build my second and 3erd citys??? I can't seem to get the hang of this dam game driving my bat shit crazy.... :steamsad:
ปากกาน้ำเง 31 Jul, 2015 @ 7:01pm 
good

Sorry, forgot to mention, it takes Fame to build henchmen, hence the need for the Almshouse.
Pedinski 14 Apr, 2015 @ 9:27am 
An Almshouse is not useless, its awesome with the right combination (situational/great) I play a kingdom (of my own design) that is allowed to hire henchmen. With a henchmen created in a fortress that allows level advancement upon creation, (Command Post, Worrior trait etc.) I can create "Governors" (level 5 henchmen of my own design). I level them up as commanders and then send them to each city I own...POW -35%ish unrest EACH! With that, I can grow an empire of 15+ cities...unstoppable.

with prison i dont realy like the -1 growth so i never take it. does it stack with the onyx throne???
Ness 5 Jul, 2014 @ 1:07am 
I like to do two fortresses, each with the highest essence and production combo that I can find. One gets an Infirmary and Great Arena to make tanky front line fighters to protect the mages and archers I build in my other fortress with a Strike Garrison.

Of course, I usually play a mage and thus have lots of unit buffs to put on the fortreses, and I make those tanky front line fighters for the sole purpose of protecting my Hero, mages, and archers from their front line, so it kind of depends on playstyle.

great guide ty!

I would recommend 2 or 3 Fortress sities Total in larger empires.
The Onyx throne for lvl 5 really reduces unrest into nothingness.
