    Here's another one.

    This one lets you calculate 4 things.
    1. The amount of troops you can have on the wall.
    2. The amount of troops you can have on the flank
    3. The amount of troops you can have on the front
    4. The amount of troops you can have in 1 attack
    Have fun.

    I want to thank everyone for the nice comments both on here and in private channels, it's greatly appreciated!

    This is a great thread and it is much appreciated. I'm not sure this has been posted before and i've missed it, but it would be valuable to see somewhere how much each upgrade of the sovereign buildings cost - for instance when is it more efficient to upgrade the brewery to lvl 7 rather than build more apiaries as the lvl 6 -> 7 in effect increases the efficiency of your honey by 50%. However unless you know how much each upgrade from lvl 1 brewery to lvl 7 brewery cost you can only guess when the time has come to make the upgrade.

    This contains all the costs for those and many other buildings.

    How to use the new Hall of Legends

    The new Hall of  Legends has a lot of cool new buildings for you to research and unlock. However, these don't come to you for free. You will need to unlock so called "Sceats" these are tokens that can be used to research everything in your HoL.

    These Sceats can be won from level 600 in the Kingdom League and since last month, in the Storm Island event.
    Unfortunately you will have to level up a bit more to be able to research all these cool new things, you can start doing so at level 650. But don't worry, you will need quite a lot of Sceats so these 50 levels won't be much of a hindrance. 

    When you completely your first research the game will only let you progress onwards if you meet all the requirements for the next research. These requirements have to be met in your main castle. Upgrading your keep in your outpost won't count for your Hall of Legends.

    An overview of how many Sceats everything upgrade on each rowcosts:
    1. 300 Sceats
    2. 250 Sceats
    3. 300 Sceats
    4. 350 Sceats
    5. 400 Sceats
    Total Amount of Sceats needed to finish the entire Sovereign Buildings tab is 4250.

    Next to the Sovereign Building tab you can upgrade your Mead consuming troops to level 10.
    You will first have to upgrade both of your attacking troops to level 10 in order to upgrade your defensive troops.

    These troops cost 200 sceats to get to level 1 and 150 sceats for each level after that.
    DO you know if it is possible to do two types of research in parallel - that is, one type of troop and one type of building? If so hunting sceats in storm just became a lot more attractive.

    Hi

    A useful addition to this thread would be a description of the district buildings, what you can put in them, the cost of building and upgrading, the footprint, which castles you can have them in etc.

    Thank you

    This probably the most useful thread in a very long time.  Thank You
    Perhaps you can put your math skills to work on the build items and upgrade tokens.
    Don't bather with useless items like farm tools, timber and upgrade tokens.  Only one item in each category creates any shortage.  Items like timber, farm tools, and upgrade tokens accumulate in such excess they are irrelevant.

    What happens when you lose an outpost?


    When losing a castle you will get some of your buildings back and you can find these in your storage.
    When losing an outpost to a capture attack you can expect these buildings to come back to you:
    1. Build items
    2. Relic Bakery and Storage
    3. Conservatories
    4. Greenhouses
    5. All honey and Mead related buildings
    6. All public order items
    7. Both Districts
    When surrendering an outpost:
    1. All honey and Mead related buildings
    2. Relic Bakery and Storage
    3. Conservatories
    4. Greenhouses
    5. Both Districts
    6. Decorative Items
    7. Build Items
    A simple question - the only difference seems to be Decorative Items vs All public order items. I'm not quite sure what the difference would be as buildings with PO effects don't automatically return so what are we talking about?

    Hello everyone,

    I have noticed that my spreadsheets are being broken a lot on purpose, unfortunately, I don't have enough time to check and repair all of them every day. I have compiled all the spreadsheets and put them into one. I will be keeping an eye on this one to make sure it's not broken.


    Have fun.
