Hello!, I'm a peaceful player, you can hunt and gather *ANIMALS* within any number of tiles within my cities with permission, please do NOT gather herbs/grapes/minerals within 5 tiles of my city though, also please do not settle within 10 tiles of my cities. If you zoom out without a prestige account and you see my city when zoomed out, please do not settle there, if my sovereignty is visible, by all means please go ahead and settle. Thanks!

Basic city setup (20 max cities)

This template does not use any buildings with resource upkeep and has the important non-population buildings.

If you plan to go for more than 20 cities soon do not start with this setup but work towards one of the next two instead.

City population: ~30k 

  • Non-Pop: Warehouse, Flourmill, Library, Marketplace, Barracks, Brewery
  • 1497 Pop: 19 (you are completely free here)

City setup with important low-pop buildings (28 max cities)

This setup allows you to keep most of your important low-population buildings and uses buildings with resource upkeep to get more population. It is convenient but kinda inefficient.

City population: ~34.5k 

  • Non-Pop: Warehouse, Flourmill, Library, Marketplace, Barracks, Brewery
  • 1497 Pop: 5 - That includes Paddock, Common Ground, Carpentry, Kiln, Stonemason and 3 free choice
  • 2 Infantry Quarters and 2 Spearmen billets
  • 7 Trade Offices

Note: Replacing the Brewery with a 1497 building allows you to get to 30 cities.

City setup with cheap but mostly useless buildings (29 max cities)

This setup allows you to push your amount of cities fast - but it limits your gameplay. It is cheap and efficient but you cannot do much else.

Warning:You can use your vans (at half speed) and military units - but you cannot build new ones. And you cannot produce beer. Thus it limits your other gameplay quite a bit.

City population: ~35k 

  • Non-Pop: Warehouse, Flourmill, Library
  • 1497 Pop: 2 - That includes Paddock, Common Ground and 20 free choice (Good 1497 pop buildings for details)

Note: Replacing the library temporarily with a 1497 building allows you to get to 32 cities.

Efficient City-Push setup (38 max cities)

This setup does not run negative resources but has only the really important low-population buildings. It is only useful for getting more cities!

City population: ~39.3k 

  • Non-Pop: Warehouse, Flourmill, Library
  • 1497 Pop: 10 - That includes Paddock, Common Ground, Carpentry, Kiln, Stonemason and 5 free choice
  • 2/3 Infantry Quarters and 3/2 Spearmen billets depending on resource plot
  • 7 Trade Offices

Note: Replacing the Library temporarily (you need some research stocked up to continue running sov) with a 1497 building allows you to get to 40 cities.

Temporary City-Push setup (45 max cities)

This setup gets rid of both Flourmill and Library. This setup requires another account to feed the cities with food!

You need to have a few million research points stored up to continue running sov and you need to feed more food. Getting rid of the Flourmill "costs" you 5k food/h, keeping it means you have to build 3 addition TOs for > 8k wood/h consumption (and stone+clay too).

City population: ~42.3k 

  • Non-Pop: Warehouse
  • 1497 Pop: 12 - That includes Paddock, Common Ground, Carpentry, Kiln, Stonemason and 7 free choice
  • 2/3 Infantry Quarters and 3/2 Spearmen billets depending on resource plot
  • 7 Trade Offices

Note: After this setup it gets really hard. You cannot replace any low-population buildings, thus you need to replace 1497 population buildings with TOs. You get "only" 500 population for a huge additional resource upkeep.
