OK, first, provide proof of which? The INT on a hero? No one has proof of that, as no one's exactly sure how to calculate everything yet.
But the Politics reducing building time? That's pure fact, and I'm not going to bother with taking screenshots and uploading them somewhere and posting them for something you can do for yourself in less than 5 minutes.
Hire a crappy hero. Take him out to stomp a level 3 flat for some XP. Appoint him as your castellan, but DON'T UPGRADE him yet. Pick a building, any building, and mouse over the "upgrade" button. Take note of how long it would take. Write it down if you need to. Now, level up the hero and put a point in politics. Go back to the SAME building and mouse over the upgrade button. Compare.

I was still working on figuring out what I knew about the attack, I hadn't yet gotten to proving or disproving what I have heard about the Int stat. I take things one step at a time, I have a habit of forgetting things along the way if I rush.
I took your advice and I was wrong. I'll edit my guide now. Thank you![]()

This is a significant help. I myself use it. Switch between a 79 politics hero with 12 intelligence for a 83 intelligence hero with 19 politics, start a 7-9 hour research, have it take half that time, and switch back for politics ^_^
New members should consider attaining a high politics hero first, but then a high intelligence hero soon after.
To get the boost supplied by your hero in resource production just take your base production and multiply it by the politics level of your hero to get the boost.
For example, my hero with 66 politics and a basic food production of 13300 gives a hero plus of .66*13300= 8778 extra food
What is the importance of the Hero's Lvl. other than salary?
I've captured a Lvl 12 Hero, but all the other stats are lower than my 2 other Hero a 8 and 9.
Apart from salary, Hero level dictates how many points can be redistributed with the Holy Water item. e.g you can redistribute 15 points for a level 15 hero. So don't use Holy water at too low a level.
Also, a Hero consumes 1 extra Holy Water every 10 levels (1 Holy Water for Hero levels 1-10, 2 Holy Waters for levels 11,20 etc.)
Attributes are most important. Lower level Heroes with greater total points than a higher level Hero are generally better in the long run. Although if the difference is slight and your higher level Hero is very good on a particular attribute you might want to keep him/her.

Thanks mate! That's a good tutorial, easy to understand, and doesn't ramble.
