Topic: [350028] Optimal amount of farmhouses to have in an op (food 8).

[-350028] Mortis (INT1) [None] :: March 24, 2018, 1:04 a.m.

I was just wondering what the best number of farmhouses/granaries to have in a food 8 out post would be, assuming full po. etc.
and if there is any math you used or equation to calculate to this conclusion, then please let me see it if possible.

Thanks

Well you have 15 buildings that can have a +food item on them, and another 15 that can take a base food build item. So 30

The most an OP can get is something like 40K, I don't know how high the workloads get so can't really give you numbers. @Herveus (AU1) might be able to

it completely depends on your food bonuses and your construction items.

18-20 --> depending on what PO you have on location
usually under 5% prod rate use +200 food (lvl 10 net food bonus)

[4936970] Herveus (AU1) [AU1] :: April 4, 2018, 8:14 p.m.

amount of 100% ones +20

Base items stop being effective around 42%. No point in having 15 of them.

[4937078] Philt123 (GB1) [GB1] :: April 5, 2018, 9:23 a.m.

well thats not strictly true, I think what you mean is they become less effective than a +200 food item, however when you already have 15 +200 food items in an op, the decision then becomes, does the extra food a base item gives in say a 31% gran give more or less than the food I lose then removing a deco to make room for that granery.

A lot will depend on the level of the granery, and your overall PO. also the level of the base food construction item you are using.

For me i tend to agree that number of +100 graneries +20 is a good indicator of how many to have.

no they stop at 23% if you deco is warrior eagles. (at the 31% and 23% you need level 8 base food items minimum though)

I normally have 15 granaries per castle. That is the max amount of Food Production Build Items you can have, not thinking about the base ones.......................

Hey I think you guys are on to something, I could get 30 granaries, Put the Food Build items on the ones with very low production, and put the Base ones on the first 15 ones with best production....

I`ll implement this ASAP.

Thank you GGE Forum!

30 granaries? i have 12 and do 26k if i put 30 gonna do 100k

my strategy is 12 but all 30lvl + the best food items in it . later will think for more as soon as i up all my buildings 30lvl .

but gge no gives so much skips so graneries will wait need to finish wood and stone buildings.

actually to do 30x30lvl granaries i can't wait so long .can't play if you think how many 5min skips are ,,no no no

Try doing this: Use the % food production on the highest ones, until the build item only gives less than 200 (eg. 197.3) then put the base ones on the ones with low food production.

How hard are the base ones to obtain though? You get one per event at most if you keep your activity at the very top. As far as i know you can only get them from the khan shop or from top 100 etc in events. Getting 30 of them takes a long long time.
