Keep your medicine at at 60-70% of your requirements and you can still get a great population growth bonus but people still will not live much longer than no medicine at all. Most population will be working with very little dead weight old people about. Also I believe food "expires" so if it's around to long it's tossed out. Helps to prevent the massive population instability you would get if you could get a massive food store and grow far beyond your means.
Energy repay times for power sources
Windmill 0 (No energy materials required to make it)
Water Power Plant 150 min
Coal power 9.27 min
Solar power 565 min
Repay time increases by *2.5 for every level.
So level 6 Water Power takes 10 days to pay for the energy resources you put into making it!!! That just for the level 6 upgrade not including the previous 5.
Moral of the story, stick to windmill and maybe coal.
Max out your logging and stone and upgrade a lot before getting later tech. Logging is your biggest limiter. You need logs to make boards to upgrade your steel production and you need lots of steel to make power. Don't make electric board factories build a logging site and normal board factory instead and you will only use about 1/4 of the logs to make boards the left over logs can upgrade your stone which you use to upgrade your logging also they will not waste your steel.
Hard can be done. Very hard should be labeled impossible. First turn you get attacked by 3 militiamen about 9 out of ten times. Only way to reliable beat it is to play English or Jap or just plan on restarting a lot. Furthest I'v gotten is year 24.
Selling suits in the Boutique, fancy coffee in the Cafe's, ballroom dancing with bow ties in the Night clubs, bad ass old school hotels. What are we going to eat with that, burgers :) Love the game but please change the burger graphic it does not match the theme of all the other graphics. Or not, your calls as it's your game, just though i would mention it.
Thanks for the suggestion !! We asked the financial manager of holyday city and he said that he don't want to forget that he started from very low eating only burgers and fried potatoes. Riches may change his life, but not his eating habits :P
Fun enough game but got boring after level 100 as you just let it go and checked in every so often to spend patrol tokens. One note "Resource Discount" is almost useless beyond 1%. If you do the maths its far more efficient to spend tokens on "Resource Reward" until you get it past 100,000% by which point the game is over. Maybe tweak that.
80QA heat and 132QA power (sold) per tick. 800k Prestige out of the max 1 million you can get. I think that's end game or is their something I'm missing?
As far as I can tell the best strategy, cover ever flat surface in power plants, dig out new areas to put more power plants. Put in 6-10 tech buildings to taste. Build 20 lazer turrets and sprinkle in some cannons. THEN build even more lazers and cannons. If it's not firing it's not using energy cover the map in turrets it's called defense in depth.
Use "shift"+"right click" to mass sell everything of the component clicked. Also works on cells and depleted cells.
Use "shift" + "Left Click" to mass upgrade everything of that type. Example Select L2 Capacitors and shift left click a L1 Capacitor to upgrade all L1's to L2 or as many as you have money for at least. Does not work on power cells.
Helpful stuff
1) You can walk over stairs just hit escape as you hit it, with a bit of practice you can even corner over it.
2) You can transmute more that items, works on potions and ingredients.
3) Transmuted ingredients are not counted the same as non transmuted ingredients so you can enchant or potion with two of the same ingredients if you want.
4) The ESC key brings up the inventory
5) Kid in town sells great items for early players before you hit level 20-30 of the dungeon.
6) The book in the inventory with give you the HP, Damage and elemental attack damage of any creatures you encounter. Handy if you are gearing up and trying to remember what resistance to bring.
7) level 5, 15, 25, 35 etc all have forges on them handy for resistance adjustment on the fly.
Rush Healing magic and Transmute then pump everything into combat. Anything left over once combat is finished target potion effect.
You can start getting Magic regen from kills (fractals) about dungeon level 25+. This is super powerful, before that you want health regen. Imbue everything with magic and/or health regen. For some areas throw in resistances you will learn this in the ice caves first. No harm is getting something like boots with good ice protect and enchanting on two more ice protects. Face an ice unit put them on. Same for fire, dark etc.
Combat skills feel like the only choice early on, magic feels to weak until you get items that give some magic regen from kills. By the time I got some of them I had almost maxed out combat tree. That said when you do get magic regen items the healing spell becomes super handy. Would be interested to hear about some peoples builds/strats.
Assuming you are maxed and doing survival. Once you hit about level 10-15 for Arcane only use Striker Pengu and Dragonfall. Dragonfall will kill most ground while you concentrate on killing all the dragons/wyrms with lightning to stun then freeze to make them drop. Don't lightning again till they hit the ground or you will thaw them out. With the 2 arcane charms you can keep spamming Dragonfall and will have 999 waiting to fall. Got about 4 mil this way before I quit as it get a bit boring. As a side note can we get a level counter on survival as you can't tell what level you are on.
i think 1.06c fixes some of those. When people requested a lv 25 rune, i was overwhelmed by the changes to all synergizing spells. For the level / Wave counter. it should be at the bottom left of the gui. Thanks!
