At my level the Temple of Holy Fire is by far the best Culture building - it gives 2400 from 5x5 blocks (96 Culture per block), whereas the Garden of Harmony only gives 2100 from 5圆 (70 Culture per block),

Similarly, 13 Workshops fill the second row perfectly, so it is a no-brainer to place them there. But 9 Temples of Holy Fire fit the top row perfectly - so it was a no-brainer to bend the rule and move it down one block.Ģ. The 'Golden Rule' says place the Main Hall in the corner. The white arrow shows the road blocks I no longer need = freed-up space.ġ. This is a screenshot of my latest rearrangement (using Tip #48 "Zoom Control" wink emoticon ) with a few explanatory notes. If you ever apply to join a new fellowship, it shows that you have an organized approach to the game, and makes it easier for their Archmage to see exactly which Boosted factories you have. This makes it easier for you to keep tabs on exactly what you have it also makes it easier to shift stuff around when you are re-modelling your city layout.Īnd it makes it easier for visitors to see what's what in your pot! Try to group all your buildings by type, in lines or blocks. When I rearranged my 2x4 residences from long-side-touching to short-side-touching, I saved about 20 road blocks – enough to build an extra building!ġ0. When you are making rectangular buildings, stack them so the shorter side touches the road, so you use fewer road blocks per building.

Keep your board square, not oblong or with offshoots. The buildings on either side of the road need only be touched by one road block, not 2 or 3 you can use the 'wasted space' for a little extra culture.Ĩ. You can gain extra 'free' culture by placing little Culture ornaments at the end of a road that runs to the edge of the board. Roads that touch only one building are wasted space.ħ. You want to keep the number of road blocks down to the minimum possible, to save space.Ħ, For the same reason, try not to have roads at the edge of your game. Try not to waste 'road contact' on Builder's Hut and Culture buildings that do not need it. Try to juggle your buildings so they are touched by only one road. Roads should serve two buildings, not one. There's no need to erase/delete the street, you can build the new blocks directly over the old ones.ĥ.

Convert all your roads to the highest version you have unlocked - that increases your culture by 10 or 20 or 30 for every road block - and gives you the equivalent of an extra culture building or two without wasting space. Replace obsolete culture buildings with newer models that give more culture per grid block.Ĥ. They do not need to be touched by a road.ģ. Place all your culture buildings and builder's hut down the outside of the board. Better to do it at an early stage of the game when there are fewer buildings to move!!īest is to put your Hall in the top corner and build streets downward and sidewards from there.Ģ. There will come a day when you really need to move them to the corner of your city. Get your other big bulky buildings right out at the corners too! Away from the centre - it is difficult to build around them. This is because they grow so bulky and awkwardly-sized that they start to dictate your plans if you have them in the middle and try to build around them. Place your main hall in one of the corners of the board, with no more than 2 roads leading from it. TIP OF THE DAY #49: THE TEN GOLDEN RULES OF SPACE OPTIMIZATIONġ.
