Another problem is upgrading buildings . I've maxed out at 19 with my available population and will have to wait for Ancient Wonders to provide enough population to upgrade the remaining buildings that are still below 19 ; which will take months to provide enough population. I cannot squeeze any more residences in . I have three ponds of recreation , two of which I can sell to provide enough space for the Ancient Wonders I've still to get. I want to keep at least one of every culture building as that makes sense to me , and there are two fairy culture buildings that cost diamonds that I do not have. Even if I got rid of my outer roads (and lost all that culture
) I wouldn't be able to place everything in my city that I'm entitled to even with the two extra premium expansions that I should have.
I see Timon "playing" Elvenar on the videos and he's supposedly at the Orcs and beyond level with a very , very small city. How the heck is that possible ? Where are his residences , goods buildings , workshops , culture buildings ? To be able to play this in a reasonable length of time you need enough coins , supplies , goods to be able to continue with the quests and tournaments without mention of the culture required to maintain 150 % as the game suggests is possible .
You also need Armouries to raise the training squad levels so that you don't have to keep going into the Barracks too often to build troops ( Yes, some of us do fight battles , it's cheaper ! )
Please excuse my moans . My logic dictates how I think the best way to play Elvenar and I don't believe enough thought has been put into the game by the designers. It's also WAY too expensive
. In my humble opinion
