Greetings, your Grace! 👑
Welcome to the Chronicles of Rodovia - a series designed to prepare you for ascension to the throne! 📖 Thanks to the following entries, you will learn how to manage your kingdom and your subjects, make crucial, even fateful decisions, and safeguard your reign from premature demise. In each subsequent post, we will take a closer look at a different gameplay element and explain the basic mechanics that govern the world of Crown of Greed, so be sure to follow them carefully.
Today we will venture deep into your royal treasury. Will we find piles of gold and shiny coins there? Or will we be struck by its emptiness and long-abandoned cobwebs? 🕷️🕸️ In the harsh world of Crown of Greed, gold plays an extremely important role.
Those who run out of funds will quickly discover that they are in real trouble. We don't want that to happen, do we now, Your Grace? Today's guide will help you understand how to keep your pockets full of gold coins and how to handle them efficiently. Time is money, so let's not waste another minute!
Gold as the main resource in the world of Rodovia ⚖️
This slogan appears quite often today... but what exactly does gold allow you to do? Well, just after entering the game, you will discover that gold coins are necessary for numerous crucial activities.
The most important services that a full treasury can provide you are:
• Building new structures available in the Castle panel
• Upgrading your Castle or other buildings
• Selecting a wide range of other upgrades for different aspects of your empire
• Recruiting new or resurrecting fallen heroes
• Casting powerful spells
• Activating special abilities of your buildings
• Offering messy jobs to your heroes
As you can see, the list is quite long! Now, knowing how useful gold is, you can probably guess that obtaining it is not easy. A wise ruler must learn how to spend and acquire new resources in order to provide their kingdom with a constant balance 🤔 So... how can you get your hands on priceless gold?
Different ways to get rich 🤩
One of the easiest ways to improve the royal budget is to collect taxes in the Castle. After all, you are the King and collecting taxes is your sacred duty! And while collecting taxes in the Castle itself is quite easy, the subsequent stages of this process are much more tricky.
The Tax Collector will prove to be a very important figure here. His task is to visit the buildings of your empire and collect the due tribute 💰 And so, your emissary may knock on the door of economy buildings such as Market, Forge, or Alchemist, independently built structures like Windmill or Worker's House, or even the Headquarters of Heroes. Once the Tax Collector manages to take his planned route through the various places in your subordinate area, all he has to do is return to the Castle or one of the watchtowers...
Unfortunately, many pairs of eyes eagerly glance at the bags full of gold coins carried by your Tax Collectors. If he wanders the far reaches of your kingdom or is left unprotected, his life, and even worse, the taxes he has collected, may be lost! 😱 If you decide to spend some of your funds to assign him protection, his job will become much easier and safer.
Speaking of which, Heroes will be perfect as such bodyguards. Even though they will gladly accept your coins, they are also, in a sense, the source of your income. For example, if the mission you assigned them is successful, they will give you back some of the funds obtained during their expedition. How generous!
Life of a Hero ✊
One of your main tasks as King will be to assign the mentioned missions to your Heroes. It will be up to you to determine the risk, the price you are willing to pay, and to choose the right types of adventurers for the job 💀 Make no mistake, your Heroes are no fools and value their lives very much. That's why... they often go shopping!
(Work in Progress)
And that is how the money you pay them to do the bloody work may go back into your treasury. If you provide your heroes with the right conditions, they will willingly spend some of their money on improving their gear or potions that can increase their effectiveness 💪 When you grant them access to, for example, your blacksmith, they can upgrade their combat equipment. This way, cash circulates in a continuous cycle among the borders of your kingdom. The key is to strike the right balance.
Thank you, your Majesty!
