Send 1- T2 spies to all locations above and you will receive as reward a Scribe of Allembine for each spied location (6 Scribes require to spied 2 locations, do the first locations before the 2nd ones) .... Scribe of Allembine is a spy unit with low upkeep (2 gold p/h) but high defensive value (120) ..... When a town collects all 20 scribes, that town gain discovery Allembine Research Techniques, which grants +5 research points hourly per Library level.

 

Advanced: (Non-PVP) 7-food Sovereignty Setups

Most sov setups you can find are focused on PVP, thus getting as much military sov as possible. These cities usually run low taxes and thus consume a lot of gold. Those players usually have a way to generate a lot of gold by e.g. "hiding" a gold farm in another non-PVP alliance.

For tournament players/traders/crafters/hunters a different approach is in my opinion better. Use a sov setup that can both run high taxes to generade gold and produce military at a decent rate. The advantage is that those cities require less work and you are more flexible - you have more medium-sized armies instead of a few huge ones.

This chapter contains some sov setups that are able to run high taxes with no/medium troop production.

Basics

The limiting factor of the following templates is research. More research means you can run more sov with high taxes and thus better food boost -> more population -> more gold income via taxes. Thus it is a good idea to save up some research whenever possible.

In the following setups there are links to the "Illyriad City Planner" to show the math behind the setups. You can copy the template sheet and play around with it.

Sov Setups

Gold farm setup

The goal of this setup is to produce as much gold with taxes as possible without going negative in research. We are going to run 100% taxes.

City population: ~20.3k (Food multiplier: -75% + 40% + 23.2% + 56%)

• Inner I  : food sov lvl 5
• Inner II : food sov lvl 5
• Outer I : food sov lvl 4

Gold income: ~73k/h

Illyriad City Planner - Gold farm setup

Note: Running "Outer II" sov instead of some lvls of "Outer I" sov works too - it is a bit less efficient though. The upside is that it is easier to change to the following setups and you claim more land for you.

Advanced note: It is possible to run negative research and food with higher population to generate more gold. It is efficient but requires a lot of work and is quite risky (you forget to send food -> buildings get leveled down). Thus i do not run it and think it is not worth it (make gold with cotters/hunting instead) - but the option exists if you want to.

Basic military setup

The goal of the following setup is to run decent military sov while beeing able to run 2 cost reduction buildings and no negative resources. You should run high taxes and can support a medium sized army with that. It is enough to rebuild your army to a decent size between tournaments while not having a gold burn.

Important note: The following setups only works if the main and secondary resource upkeep cost of your cost rection building is NOT your 3 plot! 

Option 1: Troop production version

City population: ~21k (Food multiplier: -55% + 40% + 23.2% + 40%)

• Inner I   : food sov lvl 5
• Inner II  : food sov lvl 5
• Outer I  : military sov lvl 2/3
• Outer II : military sov lvl 2

Gold income: ~55k/h with 75-80% taxes

Troop production increase: 120-140% with 2 cost reduction buildings

I run this setup most of the time.

Option 2: Troop sustain version

City population: ~21k (Food multiplier: -55% + 40% + 23.2% + 48%)

• Inner I   : food sov lvl 5
• Inner II  : food sov lvl 5
• Outer I  : food sov lvl 2/3
• Outer II : military sov lvl 2

Gold income: ~64k/h with 90% taxes

Troop production increase: 80% with 2 cost reduction buildings

I change to this setup when a city is starting to run negative gold. You can build a few levels of a third military cost reduction building to reduce troop cost a bit.

Option 3: Temporary max troop sustain version with negative research

Important note: This setup runs negative research and is not sustainable for a long time!

City population: ~21k (Food multiplier: -55% + 40% + 23.2% + 64%)

• Inner I   : food sov lvl 5
• Inner II  : food sov lvl 5
• Outer I  : food sov lvl 2/3
• Outer II : food sov lvl 2

Gold income: Up to ~75k/h with 100% taxes - it is not sustainable in the long run though! (and thus not better than the gold farm setup)

Troop production increase: none

This setup can run a third cost reduction building. It is a bit of work to get too thus i try to avoid it as much as possible and instead accept some gold burn.

High military setup

This setup allows you to run higher military Sov compared to the basic military setup (+40%) but produces less gold income (-10k/h). For tournament players having a good gold income and sustain later on is helpful - thus i personally prefer the basic military setup.

City population: ~19k (Food multiplier: -55% + 40% + 23.2% + 20%)

• Inner I   : food sov lvl 5
• Inner II  : military sov sov lvl 3
• Outer I  : military sov lvl 2
• Outer II : military sov lvl 2

Gold income: ~45k/h with 70% taxes

Troop production increase: 180% with 2 cost reduction buildings

Note: Similar to the above setup you can scale down military sov and replace it with food sov for better gold production. It is not as easy/efficient though - as Inner II  Sov is only lvl 3 Sov.

Higher military setup (experts)

Only experienced Illyriad players should use this setup and need to know what they are doing!

The focus of this setup is to run a lot of military. You are not going to make much gold. Thus you either need a gold farm as a second account or sell Prestige to finance it.

City population: ~19k (Food multiplier: -55% + 40% + 23.2% + 0%)

• Inner I   : military sov sov lvl 3
• Inner II  : military sov sov lvl 3
• Outer I  : military sov lvl 2
• Outer II : military sov lvl 2

Gold income: ~30k/h with 50% taxes

Troop production increase: 240% with 2 cost reduction buildings

Pure military setup (experts)

Only experienced Illyriad players should use this setup and need to know what they are doing!

The focus of this setup is to run as much military sov as possible. You are not going to make any gold. Thus you either need a gold farm as a second account or sell Prestige to finance it.

City population: Up to ~26k (Note: You are not running taxes - thus population is not important)

• Inner I   : military sov sov lvl 3
• Inner II  : military sov sov lvl 3
• Outer I  : military sov lvl 3
• Outer II : military sov lvl 3

Gold income: ~0k/h with 0% taxes

Troop production increase: 300% with 2 cost reduction buildings
