Talk:Stockpile

Advice
(moved from Stockpile) It is advised that you do not use a space up with a warehouse. But instead use the space for another barrack.

--- Disagreed, having up to three warehouses at high levels will discourage the high prestige players looking for farms. ( combined with low resources in town ofcourse ) Not having any will make higher prestige players farm you. If you're lacking barracks its more profitable to lose some cottages instead. After all, having a ton of barracks but no resources to build an army with won't get you anywhere as well.

Agree, Warehouses will never hide enough resources.... when you have millions.... waste of time. +1, get your self a good alliance, this will deter farmers more then warehouses will.

LeigeKris 02:36, 6 January 2011 (UTC) This depends on the situation, If you do not have a big alliance war going on and being attack all the time, then don't have a warehouse, BUT If you are being attacked all the time, make a high level (level 9 or 10) warehouse and set it to 100% food. This allows you to comfort your city.

--- Disagree, again. Although it is true that Warehouses offer very little when used in the general sense, there is a plus side to them. When dealing with an army that consumes literally hundreds of thousands of food a day it is a good idea to do the following. Build two Level 10 Warehouses. This will set your overall holding limit to 1,100,000 (Each Level 10 holds 550,000 so double is 1,100,000). Once this is done, upgrade your Stockpile to Level 10, which will add an additional 100% to your total holdings. This will double your total amount to 2,200,000. Now that this has been done, set the amounts of Food to 100 and the other three to zero. What this means is that even if you are plundered, if your Warehouses survive, you will have plenty of food to plunder several NPCs and regain your materials. In a sense, it can be considered a Doomsday Bunker, haha. In another situation, you could Stockpile 2,200,000 Lumber, Stone, or Iron (Only one at a time) which will give your user a cushion, being able to sell it in the Marketplace for a decent amount of Gold, should your city collapse and you need it.

---Disagree, A high level player with LVL10 privateering can plunder your resources from the warehouse making it virtually useless. Warehouse is good only to increase the level of your stockpile research to 100%, therefore letting your city hold more iron/lumber before it quits producing. Also, it is said, that it will increase production of these resources as well.....

02:36, 6 January 2011 (UTC)Disagree That is not true, I myself has level 10 Privateering and it takes a total of I think 30% off of the warehouse. I know because I've plundered alts before. It does not make a huge difference to the amount you plunder.
