The first chance you get, upgrade your marble and hardwood. Then depending on your playing style either: Economical, upgrade your provision house so that your resource trade-ins (250 stone for 50 marble, 250 firwood planks for 50 hardwood) only takes 15 min instead of 30. Also speeds up settler gathering. Or if Military, upgrade your barracks so that all soldier recruiting time is cut in half. A
Also, don't waste resources on upgrading houses, use all spare licences for building lvl 1 houses and when you reach lvl 19, tear them down and build noble house. tripple the capacity, less resources
EARLY GAME TIPS
Focus on building close to resources AND warehouses (your mayors house counts as a warehouse)
If something doesn't seem right in the game. Strange amounts of a resource, or chat box not showing up, try logging out then back in again. Fixes almost everything.
Early game players should use their gems on Noble Residences. They only cost 65 gems and free up a huge amount of building licensses early game.
Your first upgrade should be a building from the lowest level resources like a stone mason or a fisher. using it on a weaponsmith only increases your need for copper smelters and will overall deplete your building licenses needlessly as well as limiting your options.
MID GAME TIPS
The two best practices in this game for gathering resources FAST are trade, and buff exchanges.
When you get access to marble and hardwood, focus on marble, then when you get a trader, trade 1:1 marble to hardwood planks. A good hardwood production takes many more buildings than Marble, but on the trader, they are treated as equals in value. So you can save more building licenses by focusing on marble and using the trader to get hardwood.
Most people using the trader are trying to take advantage of you. For instance, you shouldn't trade away your gold unless you absolutely have to. You don't get more gold unless you complete a quest or raid bandit camps or you reach level 23!!! Gold is the highest value trade resource and most people will do anything to get it from you.
Don't wait for your friends to ask for a buff exchange. Bug and nag each one of them until you find 1 or more reliable buffing partner who is willing to exchange buffs with you all day long without having to be asked. Just make sure you buff him just as much or more than he does you. Otherwise you will fall behind.
A dedicated bow maker isn't necessary. Once you have the trader, trade for bows. Quite a few people have an excess of bows and are happy to trade them.
Build Residence AWAY from mayors house or Storehouses,Keep your producing buildings close to store house and mayors house.Cuts production time if distance to storage to get needed material to make sometime...Example: wood to make Coke
if you find you have built to many of some thing instead of distroying it, just stop production, then you can restart as you need the production.
Start with an IDEA of what your village is going to look.This will help the game go much fast.
Start by FRIENDING pro plyers and get help from them .Everyone is willing to help
Pro Tip: DO not stack units in the barracks unless you are prepared to wait for the stack to complete before using any.
Same goes for buffs.
In the beginning of the game a novice player is given rather significant amount of golden coins. If the pace of the game is a secondary goal, it may be a good strategy to save the gold coins for later on to upgrade more advanced structures.
Build residences away from your storehouses!
Save that space for a production building where distance to storehouse lowers production time. :D
