Overview[ | ]
The Altar of Kings is a building that provides +1 Wood / +1 Food / +1 Kröwn / +1 Lore for every 200 Fame as well as a flat +50 Fame and + 1 Happiness bonus once built . It is required for the classic Fame Victory condition.
It can not be built by Clan of the Snake.
Behaviour[ | ]
Unless stated otherwise, Altar production cannot be affected by any production bonus, even area related ones ( Herbalism, Kindred Spirit...).
- Thanks to Legacy, Boar clan can increase its production by 50%.
- Thanks to Hero Emblem, Stag clan can make the Altar produce additional 2 and 2.1 Fame per month.
While on fire it stops from producing resource and happiness and takes 75 Wood to repair from minimal damage (medium difficulty). Although, it cannot be set on fire by earthquakes.
Only one altar at a time can be built and controlled by a player. However, by managing to steal another player's altar, one can benefit from multiple bonuses that will cumulate.
Math[ | ]
More then being mandatory for Fame Victory, Altar of Kings is a massive gold investment that repays itself passively over time. As Kröwns management is important throughout the game, it is possible to estimate how much time will be needed to expect return on investment, depending on fame level.
With Slidrugtanni clan however, this investment becomes a lot more profitable thanks to Legacy and Simple Living knowledge : not only its wood cost is halved, but it can also get an increased production. Meaning a faster self-repayment.
Increases Happiness and production yields from Altar of Kings by 50%.
Construction costs -50% Wood to build.
