Buildings are constructed by Builders, which are employed at the Hall and Warehouses and will construct them or carry resources to the construction site during working hours. They are generally constructed in the order they were placed. Buildings can be moved at the cost of Wood.png 5 Wood. They can also be removed but this will not refund any construction materials.

Buildings can also be upgraded, which will add space for another worker. Upgrading a building beyond level 3 requires a lord to have the second level of building knowledge. Buildings will continue functioning while they are being upgraded.

Resources buildings

Resources buildings produce basic resources and are operational between 8 AM and 6 PM. All resources buildings require a manager.

The resource production of fields scales with how much of the building is located on fertile soil. Fertile soil is visible on the map and will be highlighted in green when constructing a field. Fields are harvested every 3 days and may perish without sufficient rain.

Mines can only be constructed over iron deposits. An arrow will point to the deposits when trying to construct Mine.

Service buildings

Service buildings either allow characters to satisfy some of their needs or are required to unlock additional actions. All of them are available from the start, cannot be upgraded and are operational between 5 PM and 11 PM. Service buildings that sell resources can be ordered to not sell a certain resource or to sell them only to soldiers or peasants.

The Hall also serves the same function as a Warehouse.
