Strategic Analysis
The Mill is the foundation of your food economy. Place it correctly to maximize food collection efficiency from various sources.
- Optimal Placement: Place Mills directly touching berries (1 tile gap). For hunting, place Mills along the path deer will be pushed to.
- Farm Efficiency: Farms built around a Mill have shorter walking distance, increasing food collection rate. Build farms in a tight pattern around Mills.
- Technology Priority: Horse Collar in Feudal and Heavy Plow in Castle significantly improve farm efficiency. Research these as soon as you can afford them.
Warning: Misplaced Mills can cost you hundreds of food over a game. Always touch the berry bush edge, never overlap.
