Q1.  Are many of the manual "click heavy" mechanics intentionally part of the Illy experience, or just the way things are currently implemented?

For instance, could we one day see an automated harvesting system?  Set 50 harvesters to automatically harvest the closest free resource spots.  Would a mechanic like that be in the spirit of Illy?

Q2.  If you take a very long term approach for a new town, the order you choose to do your research in isn't very important.  Rarely will you have more than one good research option available, and when you do you can finish both in a few days.  In other words, currently you will research everything the only minor decision is in what order.  Is this "as planned", 9 months is long enough, or will we eventually have to make decisions on which direction a towns research will take, much like you have already started doing with additional buildings? 

Or the short question.  What time scale should new players think of when starting Illy, Days, Weeks, Months or Years? 

Grats and Thanks

R.

First off, congrats on the two year milestone, and cheers for many more to come Beer
So I was wondering...
When factions come live what are we going to be able to do with them? What would our interactions with them be limited to? And vise versa.

Will there be more options for diplomatic unit configuration?  (Armies, commanders, etc)

Will the GM's be looking at how Seige Mechanics work? Maybe a stronger emphasis on Sally Forth?

I've heard that you've been adding new staff members at Illy.  Can you describe some of the recent additions and possible future additions to the Illy staff?  How will this affect development timelines?
