Resources

In **War and Peace**, there are 5 different types of Resources that players use for various actions, like upgrading buildings, training troops, starting research, healing troops.

These resources are:

* Food
* Wood
* Cotton
* Iron
* Greenbacks

You can produce resources in your own town, simply by building **Farms/Lumber Camps/Cottom Mills/Iron Mines/Houses.**

All of the aforementioned buildings apart from **Houses** have to be built **outside** of the Fortification. **Houses** need to be built **inside** of the city (inside of the Fortification).

**Farm** - Produces food which is one of the core resources. Depending on their level, one farm can produce from 60 at level 1 up to 36,000 Food per Hour at level 24. This is also the only resource that can be passively used, as Troops in your town use it for upkeep.

**Lumber Camp** - Produces Wood. Depending on their level, one Lumber Camp can produce from 52 at level 1 up to 34,000 Wood per hour at level 24.

**Cotton Mill** - Produces Cotton. Depending on their level, one Cotton Mill can produce from 52 at level 1 up to 34,000 Cotton per hour at level 24.

**Iron Mine** - Produces Iron. Depending on their level, one Cotton Mill can produce from 39 at level 1 up to 26,000 Iron per hour at level 24.

**House** - Produces Greenbacks. Depending on their level, one House can produce from 24 at level 1 up to 7,700 Greenbacks per hour at level 24.

You can also get resources by finding **gathering tiles** on the Map and sending your troops to collect them, or by attacking another player. Resources obtained this way **will go directly to your Resource Balance** once your troops return to your base.

Another way is by opening **Resource Wagons**. Once you open them, your account will be credited with those resources, and you will be able to find them in your **Items> My items> Resources.**

## Transferring resources

Once your Town reaches level 5, you will be able to construct a **Supply Depot**. This building will make it possible for you to trade different resources with your allies.

To do so, select a player you wish to send your resources to and tap on **“Send Resources”** . This can be done from the **Map**, **Alliance members list** or by entering the **Supply Depot.**

In the menu, you will be able to select the amount of resources you wish to send to your ally.

Each transaction will have a tax that will be shown as the **“Total tax”**. Both the total tax and the resource load is dependent on the **Supply Station level.**

## Looting Taxes

Once the troops attack another Town, if victorious, they will bring goods back to their base. Depending on the number of troops you send to attack, they will have a certain load capacity.

A game tax of **30%** is applied to each amount of resources that are being stolen/looted from another base.

Every base has a **Warehouse** that cannot be demolished. Depending on its level, it can keep up to 3,500,000 of each resource safe from looting.

## Resource Balance and Resource items

Resource balance represents the total amount of available resources that a player can use for training troops, constructing buildings and starting researches. It is shown at the top of the screen.

This is where the resources produced by your farms add up and where the resources you gather or receive from your allies are collected.

Resource items received from the Ubran Market, Store Packs, Commander’s Tent and Alliance Gifts are added to your account as items. You can find them in **Items> My items> Resources** and activate them/add them to your **Resource Balance** whenever you need them, one by one or using the slider.

Some of the resource items are available for purchase at the **Store (Items> Store).**

## Get&Use Feature

**Get&Use feature** helps you buy and add resources in one click, if you are missing some resources in order to train troops, start a research or to stat upgrading a building.

Open your **Resource** balance menu, select the resource and use the slider to add as much resources as needed, then tap on the **Get&Use button** to purchase and add them to your balance.
