The Ultimate Guide to Building a Successful Northgard Settlement
Introduction
Welcome to Northgard! I hope that you have been able to enjoy the game without too much trouble, but if you are like me, then you may be trying to build a settlement and struggling. That’s why I’ve created this guide on how to build a successful settlement in Northgard.
1. Start small and focus on your economy.
When you first start playing Northgard, it’s easy to get caught up in building a grand settlement that spans multiple buildings and upgrades. But it’s important not to get too far ahead of yourself; your first priority should always be on growing your economy and making sure you have enough food to feed your population.
If you’re playing as the Norse or Skalds, then this means focusing on getting farms up as soon as possible so that they can begin producing food for their people (and thus generate gold). If you’re playing as the Raukar or Jarls however–who don’t require any sort of food source–then instead focus on building mills or silos so that there’s still something generating income from those villages’ resources (stone/iron).
2. Work your way up to your first farm.
Farms produce food, which can be used to feed your villagers, who will then work more quickly and efficiently. You’ll also need farms to build other buildings that require resources such as wood or stone.
To start building your first farm, select “Build” from the main menu then select “Farm”. Once you have placed it on one of the plots available on the map (which should be near where you started), click on it again and choose whether or not you want it upgraded with extra storage capacity or increased production speed.
When a villager works at their assigned task they will gain experience points; once they reach level three (the maximum level) then they will move up into another role within society such as becoming an artisan/craftsman or soldier/guardian
3. Set up your economy by building a mill as quickly as possible.
This is because mills increase food production and consumption rates, which in turn increases the population cap of your settlement. It’s also important to note that building a mill will allow you to import goods from other players so you don’t have to rely on only what you can produce locally.
4. Protect Your Settlement’s Economy From Other Players
In Northgard, you can’t settle in a region without knowing that other players will come for your territory.
To protect your settlement’s economy, there are several things you can do:
- Build walls around it and make sure they’re high enough to prevent enemy troops from scaling them (this is especially important during winter). You can also use towers to spot enemies before they reach your walls.
- Plan out an escape route in case of emergency–for example, building a shipyard toward the back of town so if someone takes over one side of town they’ll have to go through another player’s territory before reaching yours. This way if someone attacks from behind or above us we won’t be trapped inside our own settlement!
5. Improve Your Settlement’s Defense
The first step to building a successful settlement is to surround it with a wall, which will help keep out invading enemies and protect your villagers from harm. Walls can be built using stone bricks or wood planks at any time during the game, but they must be repaired after each attack so that they don’t fall apart after only one battle! If you want even more protection for your village, consider building towers on either side of your settlement’s entrance point–this will allow you access to view ranges further away from home base while also making it harder for enemies to sneak up behind them without being spotted first (or at least giving them time enough before engagement).
6. Build A Barracks For Better Combat Abilities To Win Battles Faster And Easier
A Barracks is a very useful building that will increase your troop strength, speed and defense.
A Barracks also increases the damage output of all troops in the garrison by 10%.
7. Build Up Farm Buildings As Soon As Possible To Increase Resource Production And Improve Food Consumption Rates
- Build a farm, mill and stable as soon as possible. These buildings are essential for your settlement to grow, especially if you want to build up some of the more advanced structures later on in the game.
- Build a market as well – this will allow you to trade with other players more easily than just through personal trading posts or via mailboxes (which don’t allow for much flexibility).
- A warehouse is also important because it can be used as storage space for resources like stone and lumber that aren’t currently being used in any buildings but will be needed later on down the line when building more advanced structures such as castles or towers.
With these tips you can build a better settlement faster than ever before!
We’ve all been there: You’re trying to build a settlement, but it’s just not working out. Your peasants are running around like chickens with their heads cut off, and you don’t know what you’re doing wrong!
Well, fear not–we’ve got the ultimate guide for building successful settlements in Northgard. With these tips you can build a better settlement faster than ever before!
Conclusion
This is just the beginning. There are many more things that you can do for your settlement, but these tips will help you get started and give you an idea of what works best. The most important thing is to keep trying new things until something sticks!
