Braceflet badges:

Does anyone know what the 'optimum' chapter/manu level is for producing these?
I believe it's easier for smaller cities.

I find them a killer :(
Chapter 18, level 32 manu with MM spell and level 32 Mountain yields 13500 for a 3-hour production.
Braceflet badge requires 87000 which is 6.4 * 3-hour runs. Crazy!

Better than the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch!

ARTHUR: Yes, of course! The Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch! 'Tis one of the sacred relics Brother Maynard carries with him. Brother Maynard! Bring up the Holy Hand Grenade!

[The monks chant as they bring up the Holy Hand Grenade.]

MONKS: Pie Iesu domine, dona eis requiem. Pie Iesu domine, dona eis requiem. Pie Iesu domine, dona eis requiem. Pie Iesu domine, dona eis requiem.

ARTHUR: How does it, um—how does it work?

LANCELOT: I know not, my liege.

ARTHUR: Consult the Book of Armaments!

BROTHER MAYNARD: Armaments, Chapter Two, Verses Nine to Twenty-One.

SECOND BROTHER: And Saint Attila raised the Hand Grenade up on high, saying, "O Lord, bless this Thy Hand Grenade that, with it, Thou mayest blow Thine enemies to tiny bits in Thy mercy."
And the Lord did grin, and the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths and carp and anchovies and orangutans and breakfast cereals and fruit bats and large chu—

MAYNARD: Skip a bit, Brother.

SECOND BROTHER: And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three. No more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shalt be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it."

MAYNARD: Amen.

KNIGHTS: Amen.

ARTHUR: Right! One... two... five!

GALAHAD: Three, sir!

ARTHUR: Three!

[He throws the Holy Hand Grenade, angels sing, and the Holy Hand Grenade doth explode.]

I have 8 steel manus, level 35, I use MMs on them all and I had lots of bracelets left over.

Interesting, thanks, 8 is not a huge number of manus.
Besides the Mountain, do you have any other buildings that boost production?

In this particular city, I had Red Begonia to boost Wholesaler offers, Red Amaryllis to increase duration of MM spells, two Steel Infused Fungi to boost tier 1 productions, and 2 Gleaming Blocks to increase the effects of the MM spell.

There are a number of things I found one must do.
* You also need a high level ETC AW. Ok, one that gives you 50% boost is probably good enough. Makes MM boost 50 + 50 = 100%. Would give the same effect as feeding the Storm bird if you don’t have one.
* Watch an add in the Hobby Room. This will add a small 40% to base value, but we want bigger numbers, so we take whatever we can get.
* Feeding both the Aureate and Storm Phoenixes.
* Bless all you manus you use for bracelet production with MMs
* Once a week you can also get a random boost from the cauldron if you played your cards right and got lucky with a t1 boost.
* Lelanya has already mentioned the steel infused fungi you can place (if you still have some)

Once everything has been boosted to the max of what you have available, start collecting. Make sure this is after the longest possible time your manus can do for first collection. Thereafter put on 3hr productions and time boost collections for a few rounds.

In my opinion, the best cities for bracelet production are still your chapter 4 cities, and yes, there are still a few around that escaped being upgraded to chapter 5. However, any city that has 12 to 20 big manus and is prepared to spend a lot of time boosts on fast producing boosted t1 products, will be able to get a decent number of bracelet badges. This strategy works well if you have more time boosts than you have pet feed to feed pets or MM to boosts your manus.

Other options I have seen is players having 60 manus and collecting every 3 hours. No way they can maintain that in a boosted environment and you must give attention to your game often.
