SotC: Build Tick 8

Post by Tamal » Tue Sep 13, 2011 6:28 pm

Welcome to the State of the Citadel, Build Tick 8, where I post our weekly progress building the best award-winning citadel resources can buy.

The Important Part
Cut at least 11,998 logs, mine 10,442 stone, and smith 3,101 bars (3,101 ore; 3,101 charcoal) this week. Check the target goals in-game to see what needs to be worked on. Don't over-gather charcoal or ore as we can't keep them in the storehouse.


What's New
We have a T3 Furnace, T3 Kiln, and T3 Battlefield; the T4 Citadel upgrade was unable to be completed this tick, so we'll finish it off next week.

Upkeep required
Logs: 4210
Stone: 3640
Bars: 220

Available building upgrades (selected)
Citadel T4: 17500 logs, 15000 stone, 15000 bars*

*partially paid for already

Available customizations
Two empty combat hotspots, a bunch of other keep customizations (party room benches/tables, banners, doors, tapestries, sundials.) In general, I'm reluctant to waste resources on customizations until we can build the "Grand" options.

Resources
Bars are made in the furnace and require ore and charcoal. There is a 1:1:1 ratio between ore-charcoal-bars. Do not over-gather ore or charcoal as we cannot store them in the storehouse. Charcoal does not use up timber. This week we'll be finishing our work towards a T4 Citadel. This leaves the total upkeep + upgrade resource requirement at 11,998 logs, 10,442 stone, and 3,101 bars. We can also store 1.5k resources for next week at 15% (10k surplus) but is not included in the goals until we meet upkeep and upgrade requirements. In-game targets have been set to reflect this.

Next Week
We'll have a T4 Citadel.

How to read the resources screen
To access the resources screen, click the Citadel Interface button (where you'd normally bring up the map) and then click the view resources tab:

The different resources are listed, along with the quantity gathered. The red bar shows how much we need for upkeep, this is the most critical. Yellow is how much we need for the marked building upgrades, also critical for our progress. The green is the surplus that'll be put towards customizations or stored in the storehouse. The blue marker (not shown) is our primary target while the yellow markers are other targets. I set these targets to (usually) upkeep + upgrade + storehouse cap.

You can find a simplified version in your production tab:

Here we see that there is much more stone gathered than timber, so in this case you should concentrate your efforts on cutting roots. As more and more types of resources are gathered it'll be your responsibility to check these screens and determine where your efforts are needed.

We've hit the bar goal as well, so please concentrate on roots and stone. We don't need any more bars/charcoal/ore. Thanks!

Thanks everyone! I feel that we should reward ourselves with a statue or two, so I've set new goals (+4k stone, +1k bars) that will get us a Medium statue of the Knight, Mage, or Ranger persuasion. Which one do you think we should build?

good work Tamal! What benefits does a tier 4 citadel give us? I'm hoping for a disco ball for the party room...
