Growing an Empire
A new race is about to begin on Alexander and it’s time to hit the ground running. Strength, intelligence and wealth are nothing without the will of the people to drive your blossoming empire forward. That’s why this weekend the focus is on growing your new empire. Population allows you greater tax income from the people. More tax means more research, more trades and larger armies so the importance of a large population cannot be underestimated.
Enter the latest 8Realms cycle and grow your new empire to a population of over 200 before Sunday at 11:59PM BST and prove the will of your people is strong enough for victory. Raising your population could not be easier. Simply construct more advanced village centres, improve your farms and upgrade your storehouses. More buildings means more population so get constructing.
The challenge is set, can you walk the path of glory?
Good Luck 8Realms Leaders.
