Castle

## Getting to know your Castle

* You kingdom is a series of buildings with specific functions.
* You will be able to build more buildings as you increase in title in the game. Your first buildings are completed during the game tutorial. At the completion of the tutorial you will have your first row of buildings. Then you will build Defenses to protect your kingdom.
* Each column of buildings is defended by a district : White, Blue, & Red. The Court is connected to all three districts.
* With the first two title promotion a new row of buildings will be unlocked.

## Buildings

* Buildings are powered by the vassals placed in them.
* They can be built or expanded with the Builders building.
* They may be upgraded with the Workshop (available at title of Baron).
* Each level of upgrade adds 5% to the total power of the vassals in the building.
* Once an Build or Upgrade has been started it may be completed with gold. 1 Gold = 2 hammers for Builds or 1 Wrench for upgrades. You must have enough gold to complete in single payment.
