Maybe it helps to post a screenshot of your city. How many houses do you have? In which era are you now? Are you playing Guild Expeditions? If yes, are you fighting or negotiating? You Wil still be 'the Same' for a long time. To grew your buildings, the researches and so on.ДЄ good daily production of FPs is very important. Why FPs are so important? Because they are the main currency in the game. SoK, wow, it's the term of comparison of every other building that gives PF.

CdM is the best, because it also gives FPs And there 3 GBs you need, Zeus, Castel Del Monte and Aachen. Seems you don't have the right idea on how this game has to be played.ДЄs fighter you need the highest bonuses for atk/def. It is an acceptable answer either way at this phase in his development to build or not build Aachen. He did not deserve the ridicule a certain other commenter heaped on him for being a new city that hasn't participated in many events extensively yet. The original poster was very much in the right frame of mind when it came to evaluating the space the building would take up vs the benefit it'd give him. They're not the ones that sat in the middle ages for 2+ years while preaching about how important it is not to advance too fast. Very few of the 'top' players engaged in that playstyle, and those that did worked their tail off to get through the camp phase and then advanced quickly. It is an option, it's fine that they enjoy it, and there are some benefits to that - but it's not 'necessary'. There's this unhealthy obsession amongst a certain crowd that insists the 'right' way to play the game involves living in the middle ages until you've completely trivialised the game with ridiculous stats. If you're looking to maximize GBG contribution asap, that changes things a little (but not necessarily in the way you think as it's easier to get high contribution without siege camps from mucho goods and as such you might be even more slanted towards not building Aachen until space is less precious) - but you can't pretend that's the only way people are playing the game. I would recommend having Aachen before you leave contemporary era - but that's hardly a rush to build it asap. And that's a whole lot more city space available for whatever else you do want.

90% wouldn't have changed a thing other than slowing me down to level another building.

I've rode under 60% boost to PE without any headache at all. It wasn't necessary before, and more being available now doesn't make it necessary now.Д«ut even as a fighter you don't need all of 'the big 3' til after Progressive Era.
