I put points into economy.

Also, it seems the capital of my parish was attacked.

Yeah you definitely need to invest in the economy, I did invest in mine and I'm still strapped for wood and stone.

It's normal to be strapped for wood, but stone, too? Geez, man.

Stewards use flags and gold to build stuff in parish capitals. You get gold through tax and 1 flag a day and by capturing other parish's flags. So attacks on parishes happen quite frequently, and if the parish members don't sell stone/wood/iron to their parish capital then the steward won't have the resources to build defenses. This is a problem in my parish, I have one active member other than myself so holding onto flags is difficult, which means I can't build higher end guilds so my parish doesn't have very many good bonuses right now. :(

This game could honestly give out hand jobs for free and people would still bitch.

Uh-huh. *doesn't understand that at all*

By the way, which is more important, gold or honor?

Depends, honour is used to rank up and thus get access to more stuff through research. Gold is used to buy troops and to build some buildings. I'd focus on honour while you're first starting out.

I'm not much for MMO's or RTSes but if this is something I don't have to spend a lot of time on every day, and there's a Bay12 alliance of some sort, I could try it out.

I remember liking the premise of the Stronghold games.

So this this game interesting enough to get into? Or, try getting into, at least?

I think so.

But man, I really wish they'd give you more research points.

If you don't pay fro premium, or play a lot then the current number of points per rank is good I think. On world 1 I don't have premium and only check it once a day and I'm constantly researching due to how fast I rank up vs how long it takes to research.

Bleh still need a lot of resources till I can build market and actually get some trading going. >.>

On a side note, our County Sheriff seems active which is good. He's actually building up the County Capital which is good. May be worth getting on his good side, heh.

My parish's steward has actually made some moves too, but nothing towards fortifying castle, of course the raids probably haven't helped.
