Ummm ... speaking of Wine, I seem to be researching winemaking, but there's no reference to a winemaker in the release information.  Will I actually be able to build a winery of some sort?

I already have 20 grapes! only 4,660 to go!
Wine is made in your brewery

I appreciate your intent with the humorous Section titles in your update posts.  However, the information is important and serves as a reference to the player base.  Accurate and Descriptive section titles would make locating information much easier for us.

Example: "They were few in number, but the look in their eyes told all" this tells the reader absolutely nothing about the content of the information following.

Thank you for your consideration.


This is Manowar!!! :)

Equipping commanders only give them personal bonuses or they are also divisional ?

My brain is melting.

My brain is melting trying to work out how you got Man o'War and Aqua on the same post without the universe ending
My brain is further melting trying to work out what equipment is best for my cities, whether I'll try to equip all of my troops or just small Elite groups (leaving the big divisions to die as disposable canon fodder), etc., etc.
My brain then melts some more when I realise that I can't even consider that question until I know what resources are available to me
And then I realise that I don't have any spare building slots anyway, so I also now need to look at my town builds afresh.
AAAahaaaaaahahhahahahahahhgggggggh!

I'm going to have some fun playing around with potential loadouts, regardless of the resource issues! I suspect I'll be blogging about this when I finally understand (some of) it!

Thank you! :-)

My guess is that if you are a big enough player to have 100k troops, and to think you an equip them all, you'll probably be going for 100k +30% Silversteel swords, not messing about with a mere +2% of anything.

I guess that depends on whether you get the reference or not. That one was spot on!

"A boy is building sandcastles on a beach. You go and kick down his castle. You could say that it only reflects how you play with sandcastles. Others may think it reflects who you are." - Ander.

My point is is it worth to harvest 100K rare minerals and craft 100K enchanted swords only to get +2% attack bonus in your armies?

I don't personally feel you are being negative, Brids. I do think you are wrong, though. The current market system, trading basic and T2 items is staying the same, from what I understand. These updates are expanding beyond the simple market system. How would having an entirely seperate and new trading system limit the trading community?

Personally? My Spearmakers stand idle most of the time anyway, so if I happened to have a load of the ingredient around I might think "oh why not..." and make a few. But absolutely NO way would I set out to make 100,000 of the things - there are much, much better weapons here.

I guess that's why the Razor Edge weapons are the first that you get in each research ladder. Maybe make a few while you're researching further up the ladder, but then forget them as soon as you get what you really want.

Perhaps the resources required for 100,000 of whatever really good weapon there is, are so rare or time consuming to get, it wouldn't be achievable to make all your troops use it.
