Long gathering & mining update

Mining nodes now hold huge reserves, your armies gather for hours, stronger troops gather faster - and you can recall them at any time.

The world map just got a lot richer. With this update mining nodes work completely differently - and gathering finally pays off.

Huge reserves

Every wood, stone, gold and iron node on the world map now holds a real, large reserve - millions of resources on the higher-level nodes. A node regrows from empty to full within a day, so there is always something to gather.

Gather for hours

Send an army to a node and it fills its load over several hours - from about two hours at the start of the game to eight hours for experienced lords. One trip now carries far more than before.

Stronger troops gather faster

Gathering speed follows the strength of the army you send. Higher-tier troops work the node much faster - a tier 5 army gathers more than twice as fast as a tier 1 army.

Recall at any time

Need your troops back? Tap Recall in the march card. The army walks home at once and brings everything it gathered so far; the rest stays in the node.

See it before you send

The node card now tells you how much your army will carry and how long it will take, and the march list shows a progress bar with the time left.

A few more things in this update:

  • Gold income doubled - production and rewards pay twice the gold, so training a big army is easier.
  • Baron camps now drop speedups instead of experience books.

Happy gathering!
