Quick notes

  • Separate ordinary workers from specialists. Woodcutters and workshop workers sustain the economy, while soldiers, traders and clerics advance the main strategic branches.
  • Build the branch building you need. The Stronghold trains military units, the Export Office trains traders and the Church supports clerics.
  • Read training requirements first. Different specialist ranks require different goods and upgrades.
  • Keep basic labor supplied. Tools and living space remain essential as the population grows.
