Castle Improvements Guide

By improving your castle, you can provide great benefits to your Dominion. Different resources provide different amounts of points towards improving your castle.

The variety and long-term impact of Castle Improvements can be a major benefit to your Dominion. Most Dominions achieve the greatest benefits from Castle Improvements later in the round. Increasing large late-game number by even 1% can have a huge impact on your Dominion. By adding Masonries, you can increase your Castle Improvement’s efficiency as well.


Investing Resources into your Castle

There are 4 Resources that you can invest into your Castle: Platinum, Lumber, Ore, and Gems.

Resource Values

Different Resources provide varying amounts of points towards your Castle’s Improvements. The investment points created from each Resource is listed below:

  • Platinum: Each Platinum is worth 1 point
  • Lumber: Each Lumber is worth 2 points
  • Ore: Each Ore is worth 2 points
  • Gems: Each Gem is worth 12 points

Reaching Higher Modifiers

Castle Improvements provide a bonus that is based on your points invested compared to your Dominion’s total land size. As your Dominion grows in land size, the amount of invested points required for the same modifier increases. This means that 100 points invested in Keep will provide a greater modifier at 250 acres compared to 500 acres.

Masonries

By constructing Masonries in your Dominion, you can increase the effectiveness of your points that have been invested in your Castle Improvements. The sum total of your “Improvement Points” can be increased relative to the percentage of Masonries currently in your Dominion. To view the current formula for how Masonries increase your Castle Improvements, please refer to the Formulas Guide.
