Resources & Economy Management

Managing your resources efficiently is one of the most critical factors for success in your first month of Fate War. Proper resource management ensures you can upgrade buildings, train troops, research technologies, and participate in events without unnecessary delays.

1. Know Your Key Resources

There are four main resources in the early and mid-game:

• Food – Used for troop training and some building upgrades.
• Lumber – Needed for construction and crafting.
• Stone – Crucial for mid-game building upgrades.
• Iron – Required for advanced buildings, troops, and weapons.

Each resource has dedicated nodes in your kingdom. For detailed management strategies for every node, visit our Resource Nodes guide.

2. Focus Early on Food and Lumber

In the first weeks, prioritize upgrading Food and Lumber nodes. These are the backbone of early kingdom growth, supporting your buildings, troops, and events.

3. Balance Production and Transportation

A common mistake is over-investing in transportation or workers while neglecting production. Your goal should be to maintain a consistent stockpile for emergencies while keeping production slightly higher than transport capacity. This ensures you always have enough resources when completing quests, upgrading buildings, or training soldiers.

4. Avoid Spending Gems on Resources

New players often waste gems buying resources. Instead, use gems for:

• Speed-ups (construction, training, research)
• Hero calls in the Miracle Hut
• Event participation for extra rewards

Your resource flow should primarily come from smartly upgraded nodes and efficient gathering.

5. Daily Resource Planning

Complete your daily tasks and participate in the Call to Arms event to get extra rewards while naturally developing your kingdom. Timing certain tasks to coincide with resource consumption (like training soldiers or researching in the Shrine) will maximize your points and rewards.

6. Linking Economy to Kingdom Development

A well-managed economy supports all aspects of your kingdom:

• Buildings can be upgraded on time.
• Troops are trained steadily.
• Research can be conducted without delays.
• You can participate in events without resource bottlenecks.

Proper resource planning also reduces dependency on real-money purchases and keeps your kingdom competitive with paying players.

7. Tip for Beginners

Always monitor your resources before starting new constructions or troop batches. Keeping a small surplus for emergencies will save you from being stuck during critical quests or story progression.

By combining these strategies with the detailed Resource Nodes guide, you’ll be able to develop your kingdom efficiently, avoid early mistakes, and focus on growing stronger every day.
