Crafting
Early in your campaign to establish regional dominance (usually during Age Two), you’ll gain the the ability to build Workshops to create materials and Craft Schools to create consumables and equipment. Each Craft School focuses on a different subject, such as archery, engineering, or religion. You must learn the Crafting Recipe of any item you wish to craft before you can begin. Although the benefits of each school are many, you can only have two school types active at a time in your Capital City. Choose Craft Schools that fit your personal strategy to maximize their benefits.

Craft Hall
Before you can start building Craft Schools, you must first construct a Craft Hall in your Capital City. The Craft Hall Blueprint is awarded as a quest reward.
To build a Craft Hall
1. Open your Inventory.
2. Right-click the Craft Hall Blueprint to activate it.
3. Click where you want to place your Craft Hall.

Craft Schools
Once your Craft Hall has been constructed, you can select your Craft Schools. When you’ve learned a crafting skill, you receive the Blueprint for the Craft School associated with the skill you’ve selected. You can then build the Craft School and begin crafting.
To learn a crafting skill and construct a Craft School
1. Click your Craft Hall to open it, and click the Craft School you want to learn.
2. Click Learn.
3. Open your Inventory to view the Blueprint for your Craft School.
4. Right-click the Blueprint to activate it.
5. Click where you want to place your Craft School.
After constructing a Craft School, you can immediately start crafting available items.

Items made in Craft Schools require that materials be available in your Inventory, and the type of materials you need depends on the item you want to craft. If you don’t have enough materials available to craft the item you want, you can purchase the material from stores in your Capital City using accrued gold, or simply create the resource in a Workshop.

Workshops
Workshops create materials to use in crafting and constructing. You receive Workshop Blueprints as quest loot or you can purchase them from the Construction Store in your Capital City. To build a Construction Store, purchase the Construction Store Blueprint from the General Store in your Capital City. Once you aquire a Workshop Blueprint, you can start Workshop construction immediately.
To build a Workshop
1. Open your Inventory.
2. Right-click the Workshop Blueprint to activate it.
3. Click where you want to place your Workshop.
Your Workshop continues to create materials even when you’re not actively playing. However, Workshops have limited storage available. Get the most out of your Workshops by collecting materials from them regularly.
To collect materials from a Workshop
1. Click the Workshop from which you want to collect materials.
2. Click the stack of materials to the right of the progress bar.
