Shipyard.

[Bedlam]

So over the last week and a bit I've been making sure I leave enough citizens for the 6 hr and 24hr expeditions. When you add a general the bonuses are amazing...Im overloaded with furs leather and cider. Great for mercenaries

 

[melheor]

Technically, if you login every 4 hours to collect mines/cider and hunt pets, you get all those same resources at faster rate. No?

 

[Bedlam]

Not necessarily. Besides. I send them at beddy-bys time. Plus you get the troop cards and other things

 

[Manifesto]

I agree, the shipyard is very underrated.

you will get more

dock is too expensive

 

[chris.dominations]

The trade goods collected from the Shipyard go to your inventory, so they really help build up for rainy days.

 

[Bedlam]

Nice to see someone who gets it

I agree with Bedlam, use the 6 hour expeditions just before you go to sleep. Another use is to synchronize workers.

Say you have 3 workers come free from clearing a forest, so now you have 5. You want to upgrade a building that takes 4 workers, but you want to keep 2 free for hunting and gathering. You have a trap upgrade that will finish in 24 hours. Send 3 workers on a 1 day expedition and when they get back you will have 4 workers in sync, plus some goodies to boot.

Absolutely... I have a lot of resources built up now for the dry times

 

[danron1376]

the dock with the library upgrade (-1 citizen) is very good. 1 worker for 4-5 hours or 2 workers for 8-10 hours is perfect for those down times (sleep).

 

[Bedlam]

I only have the -1 citizen to research

 

[rising_meatball]

Until Dock requires No Worker for expeditions, it remains useless.

It is already bad for player to wait 1~3 days for any meaningful rewards, put a 3-4 workers requirement on top of it is adding insults to the injury.

Blessing are useless, and trade goods can be obtained in regular game play, albeit with missile silo, it is difficult to get diamond now.

 

[melheor]

Blessings are NOT useless, and neither are tactics. I save them up, then use them during the 1-2 weeks the temple or war academy is upgrading. It's a great way to counter Nexon's ludicrous upgrade times.

 

[rising_meatball]

i say the blessings from expeditions are useless, do you think the oil, food, gold, or wall blessings offer any meaningful usage while your temple is down? we need training and animal blessings.

 

[Maurmo]

I find the wall blessings 3 uses and peace treaty 24hrs useful. Also a good way to get National trade goods which are stored in resources. I get the bonus of gold, food & Oil as well. 23k of oil last time. Troop cards are a bit naff. Hardly ever do more than 24 hours. The higher your shipyard the better the rewards.

 

[Bedlam]

Umm...there are 6hr expeditions mate

 

[Bedlam]

Sending off one tonight. 6hrs 2 workers for 3 diamonds and 3 trade good shipments. If you think that is pointless,then so be it. Add a general and you get even more

 

[Bedlam]

Some people get it. Some people just want everything for free and if its not exactly what they want the they pout and cry.

 

[rising_meatball]

if you think this makes whole point then so be it, go enjoy the game and send everyone to expedition.

 

[Lord P]

Bedlam I completely agree. I’ve always tried to organise my upgrades so I have at least 2 workers coming free each day to harvest cider, hunt animals and upgrade some walls but this is getting harder to achieve with the increasingly crazy upgrade times. Now I am happy to keep a few workers free to do their daily chores but can send them off on short expeditions so they’re not being wasted by sitting idly in my base!!
