LAND PRODUCTION AND HOUSING UPGRADES

For Tiny Empires players, the price for housing upgrades remains constant. The cost of other land production upgrades varies slightly based on personal acres (so I’ve placed info there for cost reference). The castle gives +2 gold/acre. Land production is capped at 30 gold/acre, from which you must receive two +1 gold/acre cards from the Mysterious Trader.  Maximum land production is 30 gold/acre.

For Tiny Empires Federation Hud players, the highest land production possible is 37 gold/acre. +1 gold/acre is achieved by winning 10 jousting tournaments at Festival. Another +2 gold/acre is gained by following a series of steps to open a book given by the Mysterious Trader. Build embassies for each of your 4 allies gains another +1 g/acre . The latest addition added by the Emperor is to pay for 20 Famine Researches for +3 gold/acre.
