Thanks! I'll keep my eye out for any weird ways to play. At one point I was planning to do a town hall only city and use recurring quests to generate all goods, supplies, etc. until I could complete settlements to get emissaries, but that was just waaaaaay too slow and boring to play.
Sniping with Arc produces thousands of FP per day in the right hands. Combine that with CF and farming RQs to produce vast amounts of goods, coins, and supplies. The rest of the space can be used for military. This involves more active play, but will allow extremely faster progression.
The CF isn't as useful as you'd want it to be in a tiny town. You wouldn't be able to reach a level where you don't lose resources by using it, and the bottleneck becomes supplies production rather than goods. Paying coins and supplies for goods would backfire then. However, the Arc could have been useful if I stuck with it, but it would take too long to truly pay off. Once again, I don't need FP, I need supplies. Of course, you could build a tiny town focused around, say, fighting, at which point an arc could be pretty useful. But when my main target is reaching high ages, it kind of falls short.
@@UBERnerd14 With the Arc on board, you can farm the "spend X FP" quests via sniping and/or 1.9 threads to get supplies (and goods etc) completely free (not using the unbirthday quests). And the amount of supplies obtained this way scales up with age.
I'm in love!!! What a great idea!! I'm already working two cities - - shall I start a tiny town too... I think I will as soon as the frost returns and the yard work ends for the year :) Thank you for your video on the journey of your tiny town!
You should! It doesn't take too much effort to maintain since it's such a slow progression, so it's not too much work on top of other cities. That's one of the main reasons I've stuck with it for so long :)
I recommend doing settlements, if coins and supplies allow it. Through settlements you can get allies to assign into you’re town-hall, most importantly from ancient Egypt. As ancient Egypt gives 2 units/day from the town hall without the need of more space. Vikings can be an interesting pick too for 3x3 building and 30% attack buff, to improve further upon you’re city’s production and buffs without the need to sacrifice much more space
Oh I know. Settlement buildings would be really helpful. But settlements aren't that enjoyable to me and I'd rather just not do them, regardless of the rewards.
I have gone this route with other cramped city designs, as well as Traz-less city designs. Core is the Royal Bathhouse to generate 10 unattached units per day. Doing Vikings and Egypt generates a lot of emissaries to make the Town Hall more productive.
I wouldn't say challenging so much as you just need more patience. It's more planning for what you will need far in the future (like high supply boosts) and inching your way there.
You could have just built himeji castle to get infinite supplies forever. And goods and fp. And diamonds and rouges. What I'm thinking could be a good strategy for a modern challenge of this kind is to get himeji and blue galaxy. Then a panda shrine as long as possible. Then fill the rest with sunhaven palaces to produce jester stages and slowly replace them with the jester stages as you get them, ending up with just those 4 building types: Himeji, BG, Panda, Jester. I don't know if having no attack boost is viable, but going for it may not make a difference if you can't get enough to win. Alternatively if some ludicrous event building presents itself you can go for that. For example in that one event I got 21 sparkforge stormspires at gold level. 6 fp 1 good and 6% attack per tile without need for road. Assuming there will be more of these ludicrous buildings maybe ditch blue galaxy and just do himeji for the infinite supplies along with all the other boosts.
Great video and idea and one that's really aesthetically pleasing- usually high Era towns look a mess! Maybe if i ever feel that i've "caught up" with the game i'll start a second World and come up with my own challenge run.
Thanks! This city has been really fun to build. The best part about a tiny town is that it doesn't take as much effort as a normally sized city. Basically just collect once a day, since you're probably not going to be doing much GE or GBG. I highly recommend starting one :D
@@UBERnerd14 Can You think of a Challenge where the idea is to get to a point where there are only Great Buildings, roads and the Town Hall present but the city is still viable. I'm new so i may well be missing something about the game that would make this either not at all interesting or impossible :D
You'd probably have to play normally until you get a great building, otherwise it would be really slow progress. Some players have done challenges where they get all the great buildings though! Those cities look pretty cool. Might have to try it :)
I have a thematic town, a Silk Road town, so Asian buildings and the Turkish buildings. I don't have an Alcatraz but I do have a Chateau and an Arc, as well as a Blue Galaxy and currently the AI Core and the Spaceship to help with special goods. My goal is to reach Virtual Future, where I will remove all of the buildings that do not support the theme (except for the Arc and the Blue Galaxy, you can argue that Asian countries have some futuristic architecture too :P). But everything else will go, including event buildings that do not fit the theme. they are down now to produce me a lot of goods and forge points, so I have a stack for later when I won't have as many of them. Once I reach Virtual and went through the tech tree, I will place all the Japanese themed buildings from the era. It's the perfect age for this theme, with the cool cyberpunk Japanese buildings. I'm currently in Arctic and cannot wait to finally settle in Virtual.

I'm starting over on Tiny Towns, building my second one in two years (the first one was deleted). I believe the trick is to go sloooooowly and eke out every advantage of reverse scaling you can get. What do I mean by that? Well certain buildings like the Oracle are relatively expensive to level for their age, but there is a space premium where GBs that have tighter footprints have a better productivity per tile compared to their roomier brethren (like the Notre Dame compared to the Oracle, which produce the same thing). Like you, I'm using the Babel and Oracle only as stepping stones until better event buildings or GBs make more sense. As for slooow, I'm in about 11 days into a 3 week camp in the Bronze Age. The goal is to get Bronze Age event buildings to generate Bronze Age goods before moving up to Iron Age, where I'll spend at least a year. In BA you can run the Have 4 spearmen/Have 4 slingers repeatable every 20 minutes to an hour (depending on guild level), which on average generates 6 goods and about 0.8 FP [packetized] per 2-quest cycle. With a little goods trading up and down and event awards, I have already netted 2,389 BA and 1,705 IA goods while still in Bronze Age. Also the Drummer and Bannerguard are godly units in BA, and coupled with spearmen slay most battles found in quests. When moving up to IA, I'll still be exploiting Drummers/Bannerguards plus Zeus bonus to make Spearmen stronger than the IA light units. The goal here is to arrive in IA with goods production at 85 BA and 54 IA per day, enough to negotiate all of GE 3 and most weeks GE 4. I'll use the Arc long enough to collect all the prints needed, and then probably delete it while keeping an Obs for Treasury Goods. My other GBs planned out for are the Seed Vault for current goods, supplies, and diamonds, and the Star Gazer for prior era goods (especially if I decide to stay perma-Iron Age). This city has started on the USA Server, Dilmun world, under the handle Gentleman Farmer. I should be leaving Bronze Age by October 9, 2023.
@@UBERnerd14 Precisely! A fully leveled Autumn Festival building is a Smallville's dream! I just nailed down the last kit for a fully leveled Sunflower Oil Press for IA and have a Level 6/6 Hippodrome Carceres for BA. Suishun Mill is in the works for a supply boost. Once the Castle is up to Level 5 - 10, the city will be sitting pretty.
очень интересно, как раз надоедает уже просто развивать город, надо самому придумывать такие сложные квесты, как автор ролика, не ограниченные по времени.
Hello Uber! I would like to ask that, have you considered putting down the Himeji Castle, even though it's a 6x6 but it provides a massive amount of supplies and additionally it gives great rewards, such as Goods, Rouges and FPs. I know the chance is not too high but it well worth your time. Furthermore, I bet this is probably and most possibly not your first world, so you must've considered joining an active and helpful guild. IMO many people who do this challenge gets some outside help, at least initially to get things going (farming BPs for GBs, unfair good trades for GBs or to make many goods by trading down, also figthing bonuses, extra FP from the Town Hall, GBG rewards etc.)
The HC is definitely something I've been thinking about, but I haven't decided yet since it would be a pretty large investment. As per an active guild, currently I'm part of a decently active small guild that doesn't do too much ge/GBG. The problem with joining an active, high-level guild is that I probably wouldn't be able to complete the guild minimums. I'd need a guild that wanted me because of the tiny town, etc. and for right now I'm fine where I'm at for that regard.
I'm about to start a tiny town and I'll just camp in IA until my Zeus is L80, probably won't bother with any other GB and just load up on event buildings. I guess it's easier to start one of these in 2024 than 2019 lol.
Looks very cramped. Agree the Arc simply doesn't make sense for a tiny town. The MAIN benefit of the Arc is to get infinite medals, to buy victory expansions. If you're not going to use those expansions... the additional blueprints etc. are not worth the space cost in your city. Personally I would have deleted the Lighthouse as well if you are that short on space. A second Suishun Mill would be better value, or perhaps some settlement buildings. The Viking Yggdrasil, Aztec Sun Temple, and Egyptian Royal Bathhouse are best in slot buildings to get to max level, and you have certainly had enough time to do all of those settlements many times. Nothing wrong with the Feudal Japan Shinto Temple either. All of these give excellent forge points, plus goods and combat boosts or units in some cases. That said, if you don't have space for great buildings, what do you need the forge points for? In the long run as you advance eras, you are going to be challenged by having insufficient combat boosts for the enemy units of the era. I don't know if there is any practical solution for that in a tiny town challenge.
I'd say the main benefit of the arc is to get cheap BP and FP that you can use to level your own GB. Without it, it is hard to get to high levels of GB. As for the Lighthouse, it provides the majority of my supply boost. And settlements are in my agenda, but I am not the biggest fan of them right now :) FP are used to level the GB I have, and get prints to open more levels. I am a little concerned about higher age fighting, but I should be ok on attack by the time I get there. My Zeus will be much higher, and new event buildings will come out with crazy stats. Probably.
@@UBERnerd14 The tiny city idea makes me think of Bonsai. It's tiny, and pretty, and you have to trim away EVERYTHING non-essential to keep it that way.
BTW, the upcoming Fall event main building (Sunflower Oil Press) may be worth shoe-horning into your city if you can get it to level 9. 6x4 squares, 34 Goods when motivated, 12fps, and 3 Units per day. At level 8, you don't get any free units though (as well as getting less of the other stuff), so getting the last level is important. Unfortunately, getting all 9 levels will require being able to do the daily challenge every day as well as all the event quests. This could be ... difficult.
I like you describing the tiny town as Bonsai. It is kind of similar. And I have been looking at the Sunflower Oil Press, but like you said, I don't know if I'll be able to make it to level 9. I think I'll still try to anyways :)
Hello, thank you for this and all videos....I don't know if it was asked before, but why don't you build an Himeji Castle? It is big, but produces lots of supplies even on lvl 1. And you might get some very useful rewards from fighting.
I've been going back and forth on it. It would probably be a worthwhile investment, but I'd have to majorly change up my tiny town (would probably delete LoA if I did). Maybe for whenever I make an update to this video...
I always complete the questline and collect incidents, which in most cases give event currency. You can find the questlines ahead of time (like on the FoE fan wiki) and plan for certain quests like productions if you need that extra head start. But basically your goal should be to complete the questline as fast as possible, then keep up with the daily quests.
How did you advance your Greta buildings so fast? Or did you spend a ton of diamonds? I have a big problem getting blueprints for the buildings I'm trying to develop.
Blueprints have been a bit of a problem, but I've been slowly levelling them, contributing to other players' GB that I need prints for, and being patient. If you aren't in a tiny town :) the easiest thing to do is message other players and grab low spots on their great buildings. It also helps to get and level and Arc highly, so that you can get more rewards like prints and FP from taking spots on other players' GB. I've been planning to make a video on getting prints, levelling methods, etc. but haven't quite gotten around to it yet. Coming soon, I hope :)
Well i saw your video and started my Tiny Town in Beta, 2 months ago. Deleting the Arc was a big mistake you made, all the game is based at the Arc, and you should be patient.. the key to tiny town i believe are the cultural settlements! Play egypt (for 12fps and 10 units) , then Aztecs and Vikings, for 30% att and 30% def , plus 8+12 fps and goods, and placing Himenji for supplies (allready have 8M in only two months play) and Frontenak! thankfully some friends of mine gave me the goods for Himenj Arc and Cf, and now theyre all to 10 and planning to take the Arc to 80! the only way to build up a bank to be able to progress fast later. but you have to be patient cause iron age has a great advantage : the pay 2K coins 2K supplies rq!! when you CF is over 20-25 you do that rq and you re filled up with fps and goods! i plan to stay a year or more, and get my Arc to 80 (sniping at IA is very easy) and maybe Cf to 60 and then its much easier to go up. I will problably have Iggy , Temple of Sun and Bathhouse ready by then, so plus Fiore Village that i have now(for population to my 3 archers) and Bistro i can have like 100fps per day! So you gave me a fantastic idea man, i am an end game player at my live servers and i was kinda bored, now i have all this new prospective and i thank you for that! Check my Tiny Town if you want , Tiny Fighter is the acc at Beta!
Thanks for enjoying it, and glad to see you starting one! The Arc is useful, but it didn't fit the play style that I had. It might work for you better, but not for me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ As for cultural settlements, yes, they're great for powerful buildings, but I'm just done with grinding them to get the buildings. Just sucks the fun right out of the game for me.
I have been considering trying the tiny town challenge for a while now. I wonder if pushing on early till settlements are unlocked would be a good idea. Royal Bathhouse plus Yggdrasil nets more attack bonus, units, fp on 21 squares compared to Governor's Villa's 30 square footprint. Also wondering if Himeji Castle is worth the space, it's roughly the same size as Arc but it would solve the supply problem, if you can get it to level 58 it produces 2 million a day and the 9 challenges a day reward a decent amount of fp and goods.
You should try it! It's fun :) Settlement buildings would be powerful, I just don't have the desire to grind them anymore. The HC has been on my radar for a while. Another tiny town has one and likes it. The only problem is it's sheer size and to get to those high levels would be a pretty large investment. That's the fun part though; there's no one perfect strategy.
It's been nearly a year since the last one, so possibly soon! They usually do it based on player count though. If there is a new world, I don't know yet if I'll play it, but if I do I'll see you there :)
That's a great question! I completely forgot to mention that in the video. Yes, I do both, though usually only the quests/provinces of my age. I do the quests because I get some diamonds for my other cities, and I do the map because once I (hopefully) make it to the space ages, I will need the ore sites from the maps.
@@UBERnerd14 I asked because that adds an extra challenge. Completing story quests from OF onwards require from a player to build big supply buildings and do specific productions. I remember the especially annoying quest in OF - ten 24h productions in a big building.. For a tiny town it will be an extra challenge, so you'll need some store buildings to hide your event buildings..
I’m a new player and I have one question. I understand how you get the blueprints for the great buildings from ages above your own, but how do you get the required goods? I have all the blueprints for the ark but I don’t have any of the goods to make it. Do you have any tips for getting those? I’m in the early middle age
I don't get it. You talk about supply boosts but I don't see any supply buildings. If your supplies are coming out of event buildings, tear that LOA down. I did see some blacksmiths. There's no point in boosting them except in the very earliest ages.
The supplies are coming from the event buildings, but unfortunately many event buildings don't give a lot of supplies. Without the LoA I'd be producing next to no supplies.
@@UBERnerd14 I get it the LOA produces supplies. Notice though, that the boost from the LOA has no effect on LOA production so the actual boost isn't doing you any good. You might be better off with a GT which is smaller.
Dan - the supply boost does work on event buildings. So whatever the event building produces naturally - it does produce more with the LoA. Still the HC is 6X6 so huge for a city like this but I would think if supplies are such a problem it would be the way to go.
Zeus, Lighthouse and Settlements is the stuff to focus on in tiny city. Think you missed the inportance of getting Yggdrasil, Shinto tempel, and Royal bath up. And Build 2 Rogue den, it makes fighting more easy. Lighthouse Fix the need for suplies if you have good suplies buildings like Yggdrasil, Butterfly house, sun temple, shinto temple and/or premiun suplies building. In PME Greenhouse provide 16000 in 1 h, (with 400% bonus). Terracotta vineyard doesnt fix anything. So, Either go for settelment, or go for Premium suplies building, or Delete LoA and build HC insted
See, the thing is, I don't really feel like doing another round of settlements. It's just painful. The point of this city is to have fun, not be the most strategically organized city. I do appreciate your tips though.
I am boulding a city in the iron age and the pourpuse is to make it look as aothentic as posibile with all builfings belonging yo iron age. No event buildings no special buildings no gb from above iron age just the buildings of the era and also trying to make it look nice. Have you heard of anyone doing the same ?
3:00 You were trying to be an Arc Trump!!!! (That is, gaining profit at other people's unfair expense.) I would rather you plunder me than snipe my buildings, and I would have re-cooped everything form you and any of your guild mates that happened to be in my neighborhood --- as they all would be paying taxes for your unscrupulously rude actions. It would not have paid if you had done that to me.
I know how that feels :). But you can avoid getting sniped by priming your GB correctly and avoid plundering by collecting on time . Once you do both, no one can take anything from your city.
Very unusual but intriguing content! I'd be curious to see more of these vids.
Thanks! I'll keep my eye out for any weird ways to play. At one point I was planning to do a town hall only city and use recurring quests to generate all goods, supplies, etc. until I could complete settlements to get emissaries, but that was just waaaaaay too slow and boring to play.

IMO many people who do this challenge gets some outside help, at least initially to get things going (farming BPs for GBs, unfair good trades for GBs or to make many goods by trading down, also figthing bonuses, extra FP from the Town Hall, GBG rewards etc.)
The HC is definitely something I've been thinking about, but I haven't decided yet since it would be a pretty large investment.
As per an active guild, currently I'm part of a decently active small guild that doesn't do too much ge/GBG. The problem with joining an active, high-level guild is that I probably wouldn't be able to complete the guild minimums. I'd need a guild that wanted me because of the tiny town, etc. and for right now I'm fine where I'm at for that regard.
I'm about to start a tiny town and I'll just camp in IA until my Zeus is L80, probably won't bother with any other GB and just load up on event buildings. I guess it's easier to start one of these in 2024 than 2019 lol.
Looks very cramped. Agree the Arc simply doesn't make sense for a tiny town. The MAIN benefit of the Arc is to get infinite medals, to buy victory expansions. If you're not going to use those expansions... the additional blueprints etc. are not worth the space cost in your city.
Personally I would have deleted the Lighthouse as well if you are that short on space. A second Suishun Mill would be better value, or perhaps some settlement buildings. The Viking Yggdrasil, Aztec Sun Temple, and Egyptian Royal Bathhouse are best in slot buildings to get to max level, and you have certainly had enough time to do all of those settlements many times. Nothing wrong with the Feudal Japan Shinto Temple either. All of these give excellent forge points, plus goods and combat boosts or units in some cases. That said, if you don't have space for great buildings, what do you need the forge points for?
In the long run as you advance eras, you are going to be challenged by having insufficient combat boosts for the enemy units of the era. I don't know if there is any practical solution for that in a tiny town challenge.
I'd say the main benefit of the arc is to get cheap BP and FP that you can use to level your own GB. Without it, it is hard to get to high levels of GB.
As for the Lighthouse, it provides the majority of my supply boost. And settlements are in my agenda, but I am not the biggest fan of them right now :)
FP are used to level the GB I have, and get prints to open more levels.
I am a little concerned about higher age fighting, but I should be ok on attack by the time I get there. My Zeus will be much higher, and new event buildings will come out with crazy stats. Probably.
@@UBERnerd14 The tiny city idea makes me think of Bonsai. It's tiny, and pretty, and you have to trim away EVERYTHING non-essential to keep it that way.
BTW, the upcoming Fall event main building (Sunflower Oil Press) may be worth shoe-horning into your city if you can get it to level 9. 6x4 squares, 34 Goods when motivated, 12fps, and 3 Units per day. At level 8, you don't get any free units though (as well as getting less of the other stuff), so getting the last level is important. Unfortunately, getting all 9 levels will require being able to do the daily challenge every day as well as all the event quests. This could be ... difficult.
I like you describing the tiny town as Bonsai. It is kind of similar. And I have been looking at the Sunflower Oil Press, but like you said, I don't know if I'll be able to make it to level 9. I think I'll still try to anyways :)
Hello, thank you for this and all videos....I don't know if it was asked before, but why don't you build an Himeji Castle? It is big, but produces lots of supplies even on lvl 1. And you might get some very useful rewards from fighting.
I've been going back and forth on it. It would probably be a worthwhile investment, but I'd have to majorly change up my tiny town (would probably delete LoA if I did).
Maybe for whenever I make an update to this video...
It looks like he went this way. I checked his city on Z, and the only GB now is the Himeji, producing needed supplies for his age.
Nice
Awesome City! How do you max out your Event Buildings? I always fall short of max during the event timeframe 😮
I always complete the questline and collect incidents, which in most cases give event currency. You can find the questlines ahead of time (like on the FoE fan wiki) and plan for certain quests like productions if you need that extra head start. But basically your goal should be to complete the questline as fast as possible, then keep up with the daily quests.
How did you advance your Greta buildings so fast? Or did you spend a ton of diamonds? I have a big problem getting blueprints for the buildings I'm trying to develop.
Blueprints have been a bit of a problem, but I've been slowly levelling them, contributing to other players' GB that I need prints for, and being patient. If you aren't in a tiny town :) the easiest thing to do is message other players and grab low spots on their great buildings. It also helps to get and level and Arc highly, so that you can get more rewards like prints and FP from taking spots on other players' GB. I've been planning to make a video on getting prints, levelling methods, etc. but haven't quite gotten around to it yet. Coming soon, I hope :)
Started yesterday 13th 10 2022 a tiny land Greatings BAMBAM from the Netherlands.
Woohoo! Have fun!
Well i saw your video and started my Tiny Town in Beta, 2 months ago. Deleting the Arc was a big mistake you made, all the game is based at the Arc, and you should be patient.. the key to tiny town i believe are the cultural settlements! Play egypt (for 12fps and 10 units) , then Aztecs and Vikings, for 30% att and 30% def , plus 8+12 fps and goods, and placing Himenji for supplies (allready have 8M in only two months play) and Frontenak! thankfully some friends of mine gave me the goods for Himenj Arc and Cf, and now theyre all to 10 and planning to take the Arc to 80! the only way to build up a bank to be able to progress fast later. but you have to be patient cause iron age has a great advantage : the pay 2K coins 2K supplies rq!! when you CF is over 20-25 you do that rq and you re filled up with fps and goods! i plan to stay a year or more, and get my Arc to 80 (sniping at IA is very easy) and maybe Cf to 60 and then its much easier to go up. I will problably have Iggy , Temple of Sun and Bathhouse ready by then, so plus Fiore Village that i have now(for population to my 3 archers) and Bistro i can have like 100fps per day! So you gave me a fantastic idea man, i am an end game player at my live servers and i was kinda bored, now i have all this new prospective and i thank you for that! Check my Tiny Town if you want , Tiny Fighter is the acc at Beta!
Thanks for enjoying it, and glad to see you starting one!
The Arc is useful, but it didn't fit the play style that I had. It might work for you better, but not for me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
As for cultural settlements, yes, they're great for powerful buildings, but I'm just done with grinding them to get the buildings. Just sucks the fun right out of the game for me.
I have been considering trying the tiny town challenge for a while now. I wonder if pushing on early till settlements are unlocked would be a good idea. Royal Bathhouse plus Yggdrasil nets more attack bonus, units, fp on 21 squares compared to Governor's Villa's 30 square footprint. Also wondering if Himeji Castle is worth the space, it's roughly the same size as Arc but it would solve the supply problem, if you can get it to level 58 it produces 2 million a day and the 9 challenges a day reward a decent amount of fp and goods.
You should try it! It's fun :)
Settlement buildings would be powerful, I just don't have the desire to grind them anymore. The HC has been on my radar for a while. Another tiny town has one and likes it. The only problem is it's sheer size and to get to those high levels would be a pretty large investment.
That's the fun part though; there's no one perfect strategy.
Galata tower gives you goods without population
They're unrefined goods. Useless past ME.
I’ve got one in X world.
Will they have new server this year? I hope can meet you there.
It's been nearly a year since the last one, so possibly soon! They usually do it based on player count though. If there is a new world, I don't know yet if I'll play it, but if I do I'll see you there :)
@@UBERnerd14 new world will be opened in 22/09, I will meet you there :)
Even ten times the area is not enough for me. hahahah
Do you do story quest? Do you fight on a continent map?
That's a great question! I completely forgot to mention that in the video. Yes, I do both, though usually only the quests/provinces of my age. I do the quests because I get some diamonds for my other cities, and I do the map because once I (hopefully) make it to the space ages, I will need the ore sites from the maps.
@@UBERnerd14 I asked because that adds an extra challenge. Completing story quests from OF onwards require from a player to build big supply buildings and do specific productions. I remember the especially annoying quest in OF - ten 24h productions in a big building.. For a tiny town it will be an extra challenge, so you'll need some store buildings to hide your event buildings..
Yes, I go through a decent amount of store buildings. I might stop the story quests once they get too hard, but for now I'll keep pushing them :)
I’m a new player and I have one question. I understand how you get the blueprints for the great buildings from ages above your own, but how do you get the required goods? I have all the blueprints for the ark but I don’t have any of the goods to make it. Do you have any tips for getting those? I’m in the early middle age
Buy them from another player for forge points. You might be able to get them from someone in your guild
@@UBERnerd14 So you can directly buy them for forge points? How? I thought you had to trade goods to get other goods
You do, but what usually happens is you pay a certain amount of forge points onto another player's great buildings, and then they'll take your trades
@@UBERnerd14 I see thanks!
Its 2024...hows it going??
I don't get it. You talk about supply boosts but I don't see any supply buildings. If your supplies are coming out of event buildings, tear that LOA down. I did see some blacksmiths. There's no point in boosting them except in the very earliest ages.
The supplies are coming from the event buildings, but unfortunately many event buildings don't give a lot of supplies. Without the LoA I'd be producing next to no supplies.
@@UBERnerd14 I get it the LOA produces supplies. Notice though, that the boost from the LOA has no effect on LOA production so the actual boost isn't doing you any good. You might be better off with a GT which is smaller.
The LoA doesn't produce supplies. It provides a supply boost and goods.
@@UBERnerd14 Sorry confused.. Okay still missing what the supply boost is for,
Dan - the supply boost does work on event buildings. So whatever the event building produces naturally - it does produce more with the LoA.
Still the HC is 6X6 so huge for a city like this but I would think if supplies are such a problem it would be the way to go.
bonsai town
Zeus, Lighthouse and Settlements is the stuff to focus on in tiny city. Think you missed the inportance of getting Yggdrasil, Shinto tempel, and Royal bath up. And Build 2 Rogue den, it makes fighting more easy.
Lighthouse Fix the need for suplies if you have good suplies buildings like Yggdrasil, Butterfly house, sun temple, shinto temple and/or premiun suplies building. In PME Greenhouse provide 16000 in 1 h, (with 400% bonus). Terracotta vineyard doesnt fix anything. So, Either go for settelment, or go for Premium suplies building, or Delete LoA and build HC insted
See, the thing is, I don't really feel like doing another round of settlements. It's just painful. The point of this city is to have fun, not be the most strategically organized city. I do appreciate your tips though.
I am boulding a city in the iron age and the pourpuse is to make it look as aothentic as posibile with all builfings belonging yo iron age. No event buildings no special buildings no gb from above iron age just the buildings of the era and also trying to make it look nice. Have you heard of anyone doing the same ?
I haven't! It sounds really cool! Good luck!
I know somebody doing that
oh that playstyle will make me feel bored from the game for sure
You never know! Sometimes you have to try something different to see if you like it. It's a low-maintenance city that can be a fun challenge :)
@@UBERnerd14 no thanks 😂
3:00 You were trying to be an Arc Trump!!!! (That is, gaining profit at other people's unfair expense.) I would rather you plunder me than snipe my buildings, and I would have re-cooped everything form you and any of your guild mates that happened to be in my neighborhood --- as they all would be paying taxes for your unscrupulously rude actions. It would not have paid if you had done that to me.
You're not wrong. I also would have used the arc to participate in 1.9 threads to actually get more prints and stuff, but it never worked out :(
@@UBERnerd14 Ya...I am not mad at you...I just really hate when someone snipes my GB more than getting plundered. :)
I know how that feels :). But you can avoid getting sniped by priming your GB correctly and avoid plundering by collecting on time . Once you do both, no one can take anything from your city.
