Choosing Your Path: Harvest Lord vs. Warlord
One of the most critical decisions you'll make is your Lord type. This choice fundamentally shapes your gameplay, aligning with either economic growth or military might. Your playstyle and spending habits should guide your decision.
Harvest Lord
The path of the provider, focusing on building a powerful economic engine to fuel your growth.
Key Benefits:
- Increased Resource Production: More Gold, Food, Wood, and Stone generated passively.
- Increased Warehouse Capacity: Protects more of your resources from being plundered.
- Faster Gathering Speed: Your troops bring back resources from the map more quickly.
- Instant Production Skill: A powerful active ability that grants a large sum of resources instantly.
Who Should Choose Harvest Lord?
This is the **highly recommended** path for **Free-to-Play (F2P)** and **low-spending players**. A strong economy is essential in the early and mid-game to keep up with research, construction, and troop training without spending money. It builds a sustainable foundation for late-game success.
Warlord
The path of the conqueror, focusing on military supremacy and dominating your opponents through force. Genersally once you hit castle level 40+ you will swap between this trait and harvest depending on current events.
Key Benefits:
- Increased Troop Training Speed: Build and replenish your armies faster than your enemies.
- Reduced Troop Upkeep: Maintain a larger army with less food consumption.
- Increased March Speed: Move your troops across the map faster for attacks and reinforcements.
- Powerful Combat Buffs: Boosts to your troops' Attack, Defense, and Health.
Who Should Choose Warlord?
This path is best suited for **high-spending players ("Whales")** and those in the **late-game**. A Warlord thrives on constant conflict and requires significant investment to maintain a powerful army. If your goal is PvP dominance and leading your alliance in server-wide wars, this is the path for you.
