When closing the search box on the main map, it lags, doing... something. Maybe it's freeing up memory or something; but it takes nearly as long to do as it does to populate the search in the first place, so if that is what it's doing, it's being extremely inefficient about it. This is noticable even on a fairly fast computer. When closing the search box on the main map, it lags, doing… something.

Labanzo, you gain 4 boxes per day: 1 for logging in 2 for being on for 2 hours 1 from daily quest. You can convert two boxes to a key and open one box, but that leaves you with one spare box per day. If your fame goes up to the next Title Level and you complete both sets of dailies, you can get five boxes that day, and make two keys. So on that day you would be removing a box, not gaining one. Unfortunately, it is not really possible to increase your Title Level every other day. The 5800->11500 jump and successive jumps after that are too large. So overall, you have a surplus of boxes.

That's good. I've tried a few battles now, and it seems like you should spread your units such that each troop just about kills the stacks of enemies you'll be fighting (if you can predict that). Can you maybe post this in the Tomb of Knowledge sticky thread? That’s good.

Tick-boxes next to each item and Sell All button please! - There needs to be a warning that you can't join a guild after leaving a guild for 12 hours. There should also be a timer for that. - In the search window of the map, the “resource” search drop-down box should let you look for 5* and 6* resources. - Selling equipment is really awkward and slow.

[..........] </blockquote> Currently the daily that says "chest or key" only gives out a chest. So currently the only way to get free keys is to use the daily quest. Therefore you should use it whenever it's available, or else you could end up with too many chests. 2. What things should I do every day? - Daily tasks (Click Tasks -> Daily tab) - Visit Water Wheel and Windmill - Visit Tomb and Dwarf Vault if you can beat them (need about 40k+ units to beat without loss) Be aware that every time your Title increases, your daily tasks reset. So optimally, make sure all the tasks are completed AND rewarded before then, so you can get two lots in one day sometimes. Title increases with rank. Your next Title level is displayed when you hover over the current Title in the Player tab on the castle main screen. Title increases at the following fame levels: 200; 800; 2200; 5800; ... 3. I can't find ..... on the map! You should use the search feature. It's located in the top-right of the map display. Leave the castle to see it. In each tab is a list of places you can go. They are sorted by increasing radial distance from the middle of your current view; so centre your castle on the screen to see the closest things to your castle. By radial distance, I mean straight distance: as the crow flies. On most of the tabs you can select what you want from the drop-down box at the top; e.g. level 1 treasure. On each one, you can then click view to see how long it takes to get there, what defences it has, and choose to attack. On the Worldmap Building and Resources tabs, the drop-down is mostly useless. You should click "Next" to find 6 star or 5 star resources. You may need to click and drag to increase the size of the first column so you can see the 6th star. If you can't find a Worldmap Building you need, like Dwarven Vault for example, trying centring your screen away from your castle and searching there. 4. Is lumber better than ore? How do I get more gold? Can I buy more sulfur? The relative worth of resources are: { 20 Lumber == 20 Ore == 10 Sulfur == 10 Crystal } => 100 Gold You can convert between any of the four mined resources, and you can convert the resources into Gold. You can't convert Gold into mined resources. To convert, you need a level 1 Market. Click the Merchant Trade button to convert mined resources to other mined resources, and click the Sell to Merchant button to convert mined resources to Gold. - When you try to convert multiple resources at once, you get a "null" pop-up. This is a bug. Do one resource at a time. - The Market help text says there is a four hour cool-down between trades. However, this is not currently implemented. 5. How do Castellans get experience? Castellans get experience when you create or upgrade things in your city: - Buildings - Troops - Battlements - Magic Tower spells The experience is given to the current Castellan at the time the build completes. Healing in the infirmary doesn't give experience. 6. How does the infirmary work? When your units are defeated in battle, a large percentage of them are just wounded, and can be healed. The rest are lost forever. The percentage of lost units that are just wounded is 75% from battles against NPCs, 60-80% against a player. To heal them, go to your arena in your castle, and click infirmary. In the top box, choose the number you want to heal (type 999 to heal all), then click heal. You can have one heal process going at once. The cost to heal is one third of the initial gold cost of each unit (and none of the mined resources cost). 7. Why don't I get any wounded units? The percentages above are rounded down. Against NPCs: <code>1 to 4 units lost -> 1 dead 5 to 8 units lost -> 2 dead 9 to 12 units lost -> 3 dead [...]</code> Note that there is no randomness in this process of working out the number of wounded. The percentage wounded in PvP is 60-80% depending on (I think) honour; with (in my testing) 60 honour still giving less than 64% wounded rate. It is important to realise that these rates are applied per TROOP, not per battle or over time: <code>  1 - 1 - 1 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 -> if battle is lost, there will be 0 wounded (all dead)..   0 - 0 - 0 7 - 0 - 0 - 0 -> if battle is lost, there will be 5 wounded (2 dead). </code> So, for example, suppose you spread seven imps on the allocation squares of a hero (forming seven troops of one imp each) and send that hero out, and lose the battle. The 75% is applied to each troop and rounded down, giving 0 wounded. Yes, this is a disadvantage of spreading out your troops! <blockquote><cite>Originally posted by <a href="/forums/29/topics/63209?page=1#posts-1425707">someguy542003</a>:</cite> 1.

It is important to realise that these rates are applied per TROOP, not per battle or over time: <code>  1 - 1 - 1 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 -> if battle is lost, there will be 0 wounded (all dead)..   0 - 0 - 0 7 - 0 - 0 - 0 -> if battle is lost, there will be 5 wounded (2 dead). </code> So, for example, suppose you spread seven imps on the allocation squares of a hero (forming seven troops of one imp each) and send that hero out, and lose the battle. The 75% is applied to each troop and rounded down, giving 0 wounded. Yes, this is a disadvantage of spreading out your troops!
