One hovel is enough for the time being.

[andrea]

I'll build one when I get some new toys to play with, such as bakery and pig farm.
But I also plan to increase wood and stone production ( stockpiling stone to eventually build a castle).

Anyway, nothing of this is going to be done today.

the question is: should I start recruiting peasants? it takes time to recruit armies, and I am not sure I will be able to draft one quickly enough when I lose protection (by the way, how much does it last?)

[Akura]

Protection is 72 hours. I dunno about other troops, but Peasants are trained instantly - you just need 3 gold and a free peasant. It's getting the peasant that takes time.

[Taricus]

Protection last about a couple of days, but people only attack a parish center anyway.

And stockpile stone for a market.

[adwarf]

Some cowards have been attacking me because our parish guy left

[Akura]

What the hell? I found a pitch stash nearby, and I'm trying to sell it, which requires 200 units. I had 200 units, but the sell button wasn't doing anything(merchant had just returned from buying wood) and somehow I have only 150 pitch.

[Taricus]

@Andrea: Which forest are you putting the woodcutters at?

[andrea]

top left.
by the way, I am in a lowland village. I suppose most people start with that, since it is listed as "balanced".

why do you ask?

[Akura]

Son of a cockbite! That pitch stash had over 1600 left in it, two scouts come, both fast, and now it's gone.

[Taricus]

Move your stockpile between the stone and the wood.

[andrea]

the stockpile starts between rock and wood. I don't have to move it.

I used my 8th villager to create a second quarry, even thought it meant losing 6 happiness points, since just one dairy can't produce enough for quad rations, so I only get 1 kind of food. I hope it wasn't a mistake...
probably it was, but the damage shouldn't be too big.
tomorrow I'll expand much more. luckily I have a wood card to play.

edit: I will expand not only to get more resources, but also because I think I'll start taxing my citizens, after getting back my double food bonus ( and possibly getting more). I need more gold...

yep it seems the abusive play is still in. People focus on scouts and can gain resources faster then resource buildings. Some guy become the richest int he game just by taking all the apples within reach with scouts.

That's the main reason I stopped playing.

Question about the sub-ranks, does going up sub-ranks give research points as well?

Yes

Also, hitting two unscouted stashes in a row.
