Overview
Your Military buildings are where you recruit, manage, and develop all of your different fighting units. Each unit or set of Units is produced at their own respective buildings. Construction of certain buildings is required to unlock certain new warfare-related Lost Arts or more advanced Military buildings.
Infirmary
The Infirmary is where skilled shaman healers can revive Units you have lost whilst defending your Castle. From here, you can restore your Units for FREE or by spending Sapphires. The Level 1 Infirmary will let you revive 6% of your Units for FREE. In a building of the maximum level, you can restore up to 50% of attacking/defensive and up to 30% of Stoneheart troops. Remember: reviving Units is cheaper and quicker than training a new army!
The Infirmary contains 2 interface tabs:
- "Info" - Displays the Infirmary Upgrade Level and its information.
- "Infirmary" - Displays the number and type of Units you can revive, both for FREE and by using Sapphires.
Only a certain percentage of your fallen Units will be displayed in the Infirmary for revival.
After you have upgraded this Building to a certain level, you will need Upgrade Sketches to upgrade it further. Upgrade Sketches can be acquired from the Black Market.
