I think I am a level 2 currently, I saw that at the sawmill... Is that the same thing... What do you guys think as far as donating wood to the sawmill goes? I just put in 100 to put it up another level, now lets us have 50 workers...

Your level is determined by your palace's level.

OK, I am building to level 3. My gold is bleeding. I have max scientists, laborers, etc. I am not producing enough raw materials to supliment my wealth. I have wealth, I have a market, docks, a shipyard, etc. Everything I am allowed. So why am I losing gold at a rate of 60 an hour??

If you have too many citizens as workers, you will lose gold since they arent being taxed.

Or something. :wacko:

Resource wise, the Lunarwar people have Marble up to their eyes.

Workers don't produce any gold, and scientists use 4 gold per scientist. Unused citizens are the only source of income for your town.

You must start with a pretty big amount of gold... I am losing about 100 an hour but still at 1000...

Kinda stupid that you cant trade stuff for gold... :huh:

Ahhh well, by place do you mean town hall?

I seem to have some pretty legitamate gamers on my island, no attacks on me though... Anyone tried attacking??? Good return? Ability to increase wall level looks like a nice little defense...

Actually, you CAN trade stuff for gold. Once you get some merchant ships and a trading post, you can sell wood, and other resources. You also buy them from other players.

Attack wise, I've hit a couple inactives on my island. usually walk away with 75 or so wood.

Pillaging is well and good, but when can you actually invade/annex other villages? Do you need swordsmen or phalanxes first?

Also, to create alliances you first need foreign embassies

You can conquer cities and occupy them after you get one of the researches. I can't recall which one off the top of my head.

Occupying a city allows you to launch attacks from it, you take a portion of their gold, and it slows that cities growth way down.

You can also blockade cities to weaken them and stop fresh troops from arriving there.

At your current level of academy, it would take you 1600 days to research it if you started now.

How many years is that? :lol:

Well, I'm sure it will help when you have multiple cities with upgraded academies working on it too.

Yea, it will by a lot. I have yet to get a second city, but it makes sense that it would work that way. I've noticed that the more I upgrade the academy, the faster the research goes (so long as I put more workers into it of course.) So the same must apply for more academies and researchers.
