==Plain==

The population lives in small settlements on unused plains. Plains without any development do not produce any output.
The following developments are possible:

==Wood==

Woods don't produce any output. Logs are only produced after the construction of a woodcutter's hut. Woods can also be cleared completely to obtain a plain. This also leads to the output of a high number of lots at once, but takes some time. The construction of charcoal burners allows the production of small amounts of coal. Thieves' guild can only be constructed in woods. Only here they can perform their shady business.

==Mountain==

Every mountain contains stone ressources. To mine this ressource the construction of a quarry is necessary. By using the "explore" function in the area selection you can obtain detailed informations about the contents of the mountain. In addition to stone, there may also be iron ore, coal or gold. So, to produce ore, coal or gold you need a mountain containing these ressources and the corresponding mine constructed in that mountain. After the successful exploration of the mountain, the player receives a message under "events". The player can then see the precise percentages in the area selection of the mountain.

==Hidden Field==

Fields that are not within the range of sight of any of your or your allies' buildings, fields, or units are hidden. Enemy units may travel unobserved in hidden areas. It is advisable to position some [[units]] or [[lighthouse|lighthouses]] in strategical important areas.
