KNIGHTS AND MERCHANTS GAMEPLAY MANUAL

When you train individuals, if their building (or home) is built and vacant, theyвЂ™ll go there and wait for work unless itвЂ™s already piled up. You donвЂ™t have direct control over your people, as compared to Age of Empires.

KNIGHTS AND MERCHANTS GAMEPLAY MANUAL

Sound complicated? It is, but the manual comes in handy for letting you know whoвЂ™s who and whatвЂ™s what. Stonemasons mine stone, bread and corn are provided courtesy of the baker, carpenters are quite versatile in that they process wood into timber, make weapons and armor, metallurgists will supply gold and steel.

There are specific people trained to do specific tasks. All of this hustle and bustle makes the game very lively and fun to watch as well as play. First, but not least, you need to make sure there are roads connecting all these places together. A farmer must be trained at the schoolhouse before you can farm. YouвЂ™ll need a farm for wheat to feed the pigs. To provide the skins for the butcher, youвЂ™ll need a swine farm to raise pigs. To get the leather rolls needed for the armor, you must have a butcher working in a tannery.

For instance, to get leather armor you must have an armory workshop and a carpenter to run it. This is a very hierarchical game - there are many different buildings and people which must be built in a certain order before you can gain access to other ones.
