Winter Event on live server 2025

If you're just here for the quests go to bottom of this page. We're verifying them before printing them. Should only take a few min. If you're on the rush quests now and don't see the next one just refresh, it's there. All rush quests, daily quests, rival quests and calendar door prizes are now confirmed. Shuffle board mechanic is back. This year there will be 16 items instead of 14 items on the board. For people wanting to complete the calendar this is bad as you will need more currency to get through a board. Currency is Wooden Bells. Acquired by completing event quests and incidents. It costs 10 wooden bells to visit a house on the board. Each house earns you 1-2 event pass points. Winter Memories is the bullshit predatory diamond mechanic. Avoid it at all costs. Collect three snowman parts to unlock a super board. Super Boards do not have a shuffle so you need to complete it before the next reset. They ...

New Master Spreadsheet UPDATED Dec 15, 2025

Link to the master spreadsheet can be found here Added the new GbG reward buildings coming to live server in 2026 Added the new QI buildings coming to live server in 2026 Changing the Value rating of Event Buildings We base value primarily on scarcity and how advantageous it is in the game. All mentions of number of tiles includes roads. Troops: We’re decreasing the value of troops because there are so many sources of troops now that it just isn’t as valuable. It’s going from number of troops/tile/10 to Number of troops/tile/20 QI boosts: QI fight boosts were previously given a (times 30) multiplier to reflect the scarcity and importance of having QI fight boosts in your city. We’re removing the multiplier entirely for now. It may be adjusted later to reflect community feedback. GE boosts: The raw numbers remain unchanged but for “value” we halved the GE boosts as they are less valuable. Thank you to "Catherine" for the feedback on the spreadsheet...

New QI rebalance we did the math so you don't have to

Here's the link to the master spreadsheet. Find the tab at the bottom labelled, "New QI Settlement Buildings". We have listed all the buildings by type and listed the new costs and rewards. The changes are significant as it has changed the meta. If you're one of the people that complain when we spoil events as it robs you of the joy of discovering and exploring the mechanic then why are you reading this? The new meta buildings are highlighted and we justify it by value per square. So supply and culture has a new meta. Goods are the same but you will have to delay when you can build them due to new chrono cost. Honey, gunpowder and ropes are still the ones to select. Decorations are a compromise as they were before. You have boost per square but when factoring the cost to build then boost per square may not be right for you. If you don't have a lot of fight boost in your main city then it appears the old strategy works best. Bu...

GB update news Aug. 28, 2025

Embargo until Aug 28, 2025 come back then Update EDIT: Great Buildings Prestige update postponed due to massive backlash from the community. No word on implementation date. We can finally talk specifics about the GB update and there's a lot to talk about. We've made comments previously that while this update is very much needed there will be a lot of upset players and now we can tell you why that is. We are going to condense the information into just what you need to know as there is a lot. The way we level the GB's are changing from infinite levelling to tiers. Copper lv 1-100 Silver lv 101-200 Gold lv 201-300 There are two more tiers not yet announced for later update. BP's Consider what we have now as copper which then upgrades to silver which then upgrades to gold. To upgrade tiers you need the corresponding BP's. So you will have copper, silver and gold BP. The existing BP's you have now will convert to copper. You can then refine 2 c...

Updated master spreadsheet

To go right to the spreadsheet click here We have added the new GbG buildings of the next championship starting on June 26, 2025 on beta. They are highlighted in orange and can just be seen here if you don't want to use the spreadsheet. Or you can click here for the write-up of the new GbG buildings The value table has been adjusted again to reflect the value and scarcity of the reward given. Troops value is now number of troops (of any age) divided by tiles including roads and further divided by 10. There are two reasons for this. The first is we now have a lot of buildings providing troops so we’re simply getting more of them. The second is with the new GbG changes players will have half the fights they had previously thus lowering the demand for troops. Both these factors have devalued the troop reward and that is now reflected in the value tab. Obviously there will be niche cities that value troops differently. So if a player is long-...

Higher Age Units the easy guide

There are plenty of guides out there and most are good. Some are hard to follow and there are a few that are flat-out wrong. I'm putting this out because despite all the guides available (including one already on this blog) people still ask how to do it and there is a need for a hand-holding version. That's not a pejorative it's just the reality that there is a need for a simple and accurate guide. Getting troops of a higher age involves pushing the campaign map in a very specific way. Negotiate some sectors, fight others and completely ignore some. The other aspect is the tech tree. Deciding to go for higher age troops means you will leave certain techs unresearched because you will need them later. Lastly, the third leg of this adventure is working the story quests and side-quests correctly so you do not get blocked. If you mess up any of these three legs it may be somewhat correctable by forgoing some advanced age troops or by moving to the n...

Halloween Event 2025 September 22 to October 13th on Beta

Disclaimer: This page was created long before the game launches on Beta and some of the assets have changed in both appearance and values. We will update the values to match what will be seen on Beta but will not update the assets that were captured while testing the event. There are a few changes from last year's event so we'll explain the changes as we go. Mechanic of spinning wheel and throwing knives. There is an easy to understand tutorial when you first enter the event. You can also replay this tutorial at any time. This is what it looks like after the tutorial. First thing to do is click the "skip animation" box. You are competing with everyone in your neighborhood for prizes and the spin animation just slows things down. You use Halloween tickets to spin the wheel. Everyone in your hood sees the same prizes. When they spin the wheel that's like you spinning the wheel. So you can wait until people in your hood take the bad prizes be...
