I researched many new technologies and am almost through the Bronze age. I had to use a lot of coins and diamonds to get enough forge points to research all the technologies. Because of this I did not have a lot of coins for the expansion of my city.
I joined a guild called “Rangers of Arhavall” which has 5 other people. I am not sure how to fully utilize the guild so I do not have much experience with it yet,
The pace of the game is very dependent on the player. You can go through the ages by doing research, conquer lands, and do quests as slowly or quickly as you want. The limitation on this is how long is takes to get coins and supplies from your buildings, how long it takes to train soldiers and how long it takes to get forge points back. I think the pace of this game is similar to other simulation or world building games I’ve played. It is much slower than other types of video games.
