Academy
The academy trains Warlords, the only unit that can conquer villages. It requires HQ 20 and Market 10, caps at level 3, and is by far the most expensive building in the game.
Warlord Each academy level allows more Warlords — level it only as fast as you can actually afford the Warlords themselves.
The resource bill is enormous; use the market and dedicated farm routes to fund it without starving your army.
An academy village is a priority target — wall it, stack it, and keep scouts home.
Levels
Base values at world speed ×1 (HQ / Barracks level 1). Faster worlds divide build, recruit and travel times — and multiply production.
