fficeffice" />Friday is here and our Feature is an Advanced Player City Guide! In the guide, you will be able to find the details for the 5 major aspects to creating and maintaining Player Cities. Those 5 basic aspects are the Politician Profession, Crafting, Structure Placement, Tax/Maintenance and City Growth.



Players can become Politicians and Politicians become Mayors. Mayors acquire buildings from Architects, place those structures and then players can declare citizenry of the town. From there, each week will be a voting cycle and as more and more players become citizens, cities can grow through several stages of development. There are taxes, city specializations, city militias and much more.



You can find that Player Guide here:

Steve is double checking my work to make sure I’m not making some mad claim that Weaponsmiths can be Mayor’s Say thanks to Steve for staying late with me and working hard to get a big 5 page feature out to you.




It should be live in about an hour.



As for this weekend, I’ll have my weekly Update for you tomorrow and I’ll be going through all of the profession updates to square all that up as well. I hope everyone is having fun in the game and I can’t wait to go play myself!

Looks good Th! Very wordy there. (Yes I know, it's not up yet)



Inside my heart is breaking, my make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on
My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies
Fairytales of yesterday will grow but never die
I can fly - my friends

The weaponsmith thing makes me think, hmmm, is there a specialization for a military stronghold filled with weaponry? or an arms depot? munitions factory? (for those that don't know what munitions are, they are basically bombs and missiles and artillery shells and all that,)

when where how!!! better be a typo!


When a city hall is placed, you have 24 hours to get 10 citizens in your city. The owner of the city hall counts towards that total automatically. A citizen is an individual who owns a declared residence within the borders of the city. To become a citizen, place a house in the city and select "make residence" from the city management terminal.
