I think that one full Iron and a full lumber city, preferably within about 20 miles of each other would be the perfect set up!
Then you get the full bonuses from valleys etc. And you can still send to the other city in a few minutes for building troops. :cheer:
depends on wat u food build one full of farms iron build one full of irone mines wood build one full of sawmills stone build one full of quarries gold build one full of wood and iron as thoose are the most sought after resources
It is good to spread them out in order to prevent straining food resources available from NPCs. Overall you can support a bigger army with more ease. And it is also harder for enemies to find all of your cities, than it would be if they were right next to each other.
i prefer wood and iron in one city
a few more mills than mines
for many reasons but mostly that i hardly ever need to shift rss from one city to another
1 full wood 1 full iron is the best way to go.....if your barracks are full and your res is capped you can put wood in your iron city and vise versa and still produce res while waiting for space in your barracks.
I have 4 wood cities and 2 iron cities, 1 food city. Each pump out 1mil plus an hour and I barely have enough wood to keep up with troop production. The food city I just store excess troops in, all cities are fully stocked with a good def and I hit atleast 3-4 10's a day from each for food and farm 5's for extra resources.
I say go all iron and all wood, dont do both together in same city, one shipment of 60k workers twice a day from each city hauls away all the excess with ease to the other cities.
I keep my cities spread way apart, like 50 plus miles, first it makes it impossible for someone to cap one city and then start hitting my others from it. Second I easily cover the whole state im in, if a fellow alliance member needs reinforcements im usually no more then 15mins away or less.
Also dont neglect your poli heros, they have a bigger impact then most realise, 200 poli will add as much production bonus as 10 lvl 10 mines or forests or lakes. What good is having insta every troop if you cant keep up with the resources required to produce the troops?
