How does the technology part of the game work?
AI factions and the player kingdom need to advance in technology in order to get bonusses and much better: new advanced troop trees. Only the six original factions advance in technology. Small nations tend to become outdated after a while.
Talk to the Steward to get information about your technological stage.

There are three main troop trees ingame. Feudal, 16th- and 17th-century troop trees. 16th-century
troops become available from Stage III. 17th-century from Stage VI. Advancing in tech is the most important thing to do for the player nation. Do not fill your treasury, spend every unused coin to tech.


Does the game have gunpowder items/units?
Sure. They're not available straight from start, but firearms, bullets and advanced outfits will appear when one nation reaches respectively Stage III or VI.

Help! I can't fill my treasury.
Firstly keep in mind there are different management features for village, towns, kingdoms and colonies. There four do not interact with each other at all. There are different treasuries for village, towns and kingdoms. The kingdom has a Council of Nobles:

- Chancellor
- Steward
- Court Chaplain
- Diplomat
- Treasurer

The Town Council exists of commissioners.

Can I steal from village materials stockpile (wood, stone, tools)?
You stinky thief, NO!

What do to with slaves?
Slaves can be obtained through battle or by talking to a slave trader in a tavern. The only use for them currently is to put them at work at your colonies (+10 population).

Wait! My current year is changing!?
Oh yes. It's a small feature which you can disable and reset (camp menu).
Till 1650, one year per ingame day will be added. From 1650 to 1695 1 year a week is added to the date. When the ingame date reaches 1695, it'll continue using the native real date system.

Hehe lol. You can also cut down some brown trees. The trick is to look at the ground. Some areas have a bright colour. Trees at these spots can be cut down whether they are a birch or a common tree.

how rare is roman gear i have a centurion helmet and have been looking for a chest piece for a while and have yet to find one
Kirron 24 Sep, 2015 @ 2:52pm 
On my latest charecter over the course of around 120 days I have gotten 4 centurion helmets and 3 legionair helmets, but nothing else. Plus I thought roman armour was plate metal.
