The Capitol - Your Most Important Building
Your Capitol is the heart of your city. Its level determines:
- Maximum level of all other buildings
- What troop tiers you can train
Rule of thumb: Your should upgrade other buildings first before upgrading your Capitol and only upgrade your Capitol when needed.
Essential Buildings for Beginners
- Farms - Build several! Food consumption is constant
- Lumber Mills - Wood is used for almost everything
- Quarries - Stone for walls and advanced buildings
- Mines - Iron for military upgrades
- Barracks - Train your troops. Build multiple of these.
- Warehouse - Protects resources from being stolen when attacked (different quantities protected depending on level)
- Temple - Revive fallen troops here
- Academy - Required for research
- Mansions - Produces silver
