What are Resource Buildings for?
Resource buildings all manage different aspects of your Resource production and accumulation. The more Resource buildings you have and the higher their upgrade levels, the more Resources you can produce, accumulate, and spend on your war effort. You will need a mix of all Resources for City development and Unit production.
Each Resource Building has an internal storage. While your resources will never stop accumulation, you may increase your resource flow by frequently clicking on your Resource Buildings to move Resources to your Warehouse.
Upgrading your Granaries allows you to accumulate and store more Grain. A maximum of 3 Granaries are permitted. Bronze and Timber production is limited by the capacity of your Warehouses. Upgrading the Warehouses allows you to accumulate and store more Resources. A maximum of 3 Warehouses are permitted.
To build a Resource Building do the following:
1. Click "Construction".
2. Open the "Resource" tab and find the building you need.
3. Click "Build".
4. Choose a place inside your City and start construction.
Lumberyard (Timber)
The Lumberyard is where you produce Timber for your City. The higher the Level of your Lumberyard, the more Timber it produces.
There is a special storage section inside each Lumberyard, named the Inner Storage. As you produce Resources, 50% of all Timber produced will go to the Inner Storage, and must be collected manually. Once the Inner Storage is full, Timber will cease to be produced.
Play the game frequently to collect more Timber. You can build a maximum of 5 Lumberyards.
Upgrade Lumberyards to higher Levels to receive special Bonuses! At Level 24 you will receive a Defense Bonus for all Units, and at Level 25 you will receive an Offense Bonus for all Units.
You can upgrade this building by using Upgrade Sketches, which can be acquired from the Market.
Forge (Bronze)
Bronze for your City is made in the Forge. Upgrade your Forges to improve Bronze production. Inside each Forge is a storage compartment; once it is full, no more Resources can be extracted. You must gather these Resources manually by clicking on their icons, so be sure to check back often to collect all the Bronze you can.
Upgrade Forges to higher Levels to receive special Bonuses! At Level 24 you will receive an Offense Bonus for all Units, and at Level 25 you will receive a Defense Bonus for all Units.

Farm (Grain)
Farms allow your City to be resupplied with Grain for your forces. Each Farm produces a certain amount of Grain per hour depending on its upgrade Level. Upgrade your Farms to increase the total tonnage of Grain that you receive each hour. You will need Grain to Build and maintain your Units - if you run out, your forces will gradually desert your City. You can build up to 6 Farms in total.
Upgrade Farms to higher Levels to receive special Bonuses! At Levels 24 and 25 you will receive a reduction to your Units' Grain Consumption!

Misc. Game tips
- The higher the upgrade level of your Lumberyards and Forges, the greater the cumulative effects of your Temple of Hephaestus and Temple of Pan. These buildings increase the cumulative Resource production of all Resource buildings in your City.
- You can always exchange excess Resources at the Port for Resources you're low on.
