Speed of game
Hi All !
When I wanted to register for the game, I have noticed that I can only choose a normal game. Is there a possibility in the future that the game can be played in slow speed as in the Hungarian version? Or did I miss something? Thx a lot in advice. :rolleyes: |

Confused
Man, how could anyone want the speed to slow down.
When it takes 20 hrs to build anything, it's allready way toooooooo slow. Other games I play are about 6 - 8 - 12 hrs for buildings or troops. At 20 hours it is very hard to correct any mistakes you made. I will finish this round, but this is probably not the game for me or any of my friends. The instructions and rules are way tooooooo complicated. I still cant get an answer on this. Houses = 50 Villagers, OK Buildings Hire 15 workers. But they also make 10 Villagers, is that correct, So they basically only hire 5 of my Villagers from my houses. So do I have to build like 8 buildings per House to make 100% Employment. Also, do my troops come out of my Houses, or are they created when I pay for them and are not deducted from my Villagers. I am having a hard time making my numbers work. I also hate the idea that if a building loses 1 employee, all the sudden the building is worthless. So if I have a store with 15 employees, and I lose 1 of them for some reason, the whole store is now worthless. The whole number system is unbelievably hard to get hold of. |
Info
Ah OK I learn something today. So this game is using real time. 20 rounds = 20 hours = is that correct?
Yes I find it interesting that even though every game page has a help guide (= ? symbol) that it doesn't appear to explain the basics of the game itself. So I say good job on creating a very interesting visual game but poor job on player usage understandings... |
Click on "Short Guide" on the login page. That page has a very basic outline, with links to all the relevant help files.

I won't mention the names but I have recently ( = years) played two other online text games very similar to this one but they both used turns (gained by the hour) instead of this real time strategy. So I think that is what is throwing me off in understanding.
---- So anyway I have been in game for several days and this is what I have done - or attempted to do; 1. Explore for more land. Worked at first but it appears that the game limits amount you can have...at certain levels? 2. Hired and/or trained thieves. They left because of limited space. In another different game I had to build barracks and two barrack parts = a full barrack that could hold 2,000 troops. Where is that info in this game? 3. Attempted to use magic spells upon myself. I saw that it took several attempts to succeed due to low troop morale..? 4. Built various buildings. It appears that all text game I have played over complicate the build page; lol.. 5. Researched economy, etc. by writing scrolls. 6. Attempted to loot another kingdom but failed quite bad. (I am playing a giant.) 7. Been successfully attacked by another kingdom for 2 days in which he or she gained my land and/or buildings. 8. And reading so many help pages that my brain feels as though it will explode. |

You need information before an attack! There are ways to get the needed information. Wizardry/Crystal ball, if you successful you will see their main page. Underworld/survey building will give you the number of each building they have, so you can guess how many barracks and forts they have. Also does your target has allies or lone wolf? Allies can summon each other for help, lone wolfs get automatic help, but only if they picked lone wolf. Choosing to be a lone wolf is not automatic, you must do it yourself. Quote:

Yes thanks for the help but this game is complex beyond belief - everything I do creates another complex puzzle to try to figure out. It will take an iron will to complete it. Why you guys have not written a more direct guide is beyond me. For example;
1. build this... 2. write scrolls on this.. 3. hire or train these... 4. Next day etc. And then eventually the new players would have to try their luck vs the more skilled ones. I have written such a guide for another game; others have done this as well. Do you guys really expect new ones to come in here and suffer for weeks and months on end so they can just enjoy a text game? Too much detail I think is one of the problems of this game. 'Clay pits, wood yards, etc. is one example. I remember another game I could not stand that required you to constantly update your troops equipment; from bare feet to sandals to boots to belts to lol.. |

Need to build barrack: gold, stone and wood (how much stone and wood is under it) to build 1 In order to write scrolls you need gold and libraries, each temple writes 100 scrolls in 20 rounds. How much gold you need is there on the science page. |
