Introduction
Please note that based on the feedback, I opted for a different approach. To see the current view of this material, head over to http://worldsofmagicinfo.azurewebsites.net/. You'll see why I can't host the material here - it isn't static. The site should be fairly self-explanatory. Let's just say the graph is live. Select a class in the upper left and enjoy. Feedback here is welcome.

A couple of notes:
  • These are accurate as of the beta that I'm releasing them for
  • They don't include ships yet as those haven't been implemented
  • The team has already said that this will change a little (new units added) so I'll try to update these for the release

Finally, I'm still working on a format that I like and a layout that I like that is easy to read and find. Some folks have asked about having a path (something like "I want to build a Merchants' Guild, what's the shortest path and how long will it take). That requires that I build a website to display everything for and make it dynamic. Not that it's hard, and it may be a fun project but I don't have time right now. Now that I think about it, it may be fun just to do that in a weekend or something. I'll put more thought into it.

The main reason why I haven't done this is because everything is dependent on population, location, resources, etc. I very much doubt I'll be able to do any more than saying, "at the start of the game these are the relative costs to build each building." I just don't know of any better way to manage this - if you have any ideas, please leave them in the comments.

I'm still working on the other races and may have more time to finish them over the holiday break.

Unhallowed
Please note on the Unhallowed I couldn't find a shore to build a town next to so I don't konw if they support shipyards and the like.

Second, on the grid, I added gridlines. Looking for an opinion on the differences with gridlines and without. If with, is black a good color or should I make it a lighter grey?
