Hamlet

Village

Minimum Population: 100

Township

Town

City

Minimum Population:

Citadel

Minimum Population:

Basically I thought it'd be useful to have terms for the different settlement sizes. I'm open to name changes (provided they make sense) and I need some help with information. I'd like to know the required population size for each level of settlement. Any additional info would be greatly appreciated. Smile

Oh and yes I know this isn't where guides go. But I thought I'd like some help before I put it up there and people get confused.

There are already city sizes as described in the Castle page. Unfortunately I don't know the exact population requirements for each. There also seem to be more city sizes than graphics at this time. Here are the ones I know at current populations.

Growing Hamlet (100)
Village (221, 420)
Large Town (767)
City (2,179)
Large City (3,665)
Burgeoning City (4,735)
Sprawling City (7,735)

I wouldn't try too hard to find a classification system that matches the current graphical tile-set, as I suspect it will still be expanding some.

Following the dukes picture names:
Township 210
Town 400 or 399 there was no player on with 399 population at this moment
City around ~1600
citadel around ~6000
city and citadel are hard to follow because players have multiple towns.

Oh. Sorry I didn't know there were already names. Confused

Yeah I noticed HonoredMule that the castle gives 7 names, and I can only find 6 different tiles.
