    One of the most valuable tools in an empire building game. This should be stickied I think. Thanx for the info mate.

    With all such games, this sort of information is golden! Thanks for collecting this.

    I'm still without a beta key, but good god does seeing numbers like this make me want to play. It's like seeing technical specs on machinery, creating an almost pornographic effect.

    I don't agree with the 1:1 ratio of woodcutters and cokers, it should be more like 4:3 WC to Cokers

    Overall very helpful though

    I still find these ratios confusing. If it's different for sawmills and coking plants and you have both obviously, what do you do? Isn't there just an ideal ratio of foresters and cutters, I keep running out of logs! Sorry if i'm being dumb here but everyone seems to have different strategies. I'm guessing 3 foresters and 2 cutters for most things?

    This should definitely be stickied. People are Constantly asking ratios, and people are always telling them different things which isn't very helpful.
