Village School (not be confused with Tree School Village)
At first when I saw the patch notes, I thought it was the Exotic Tree School Village or Exotic Wood Village School or something to that silly name. Exotic Wood Tree School? Whatever it was.
Then I saw the face book picture and it was not of the exotic wood tree school. But the actual Village School from Halloween that gives population.
Well- good job I guess in giving us an upgrade to level 5 for that. Honey Lemon tea might actually be useful. (maybe).
I also noticed on the test server another random mystery box that gives 3 buffs. I don't think that was ever announced or mentioned in the patch notes.
No negative comment for the upgrade to level 5. Since it now might actually be worth using the School house. Cost for upgrade seems to be same as watermill. So not bad.
So with 6 village school, that's about 15 settlers generating per hour. (30 per 2 hours) not counting the regular settlers from mayors.
Not terribly bad I guess. Better than what it is now.
Well it certainly is better than an entire production chain to make bread and then using the provision house to create the settlers.
