Hi, Got a question about this one... sometimes I can see two fields by some players, just like the one above says. But I've got only one, dont know how or when to get to two. Want 2... :-)
can somebody help my out, and explain why some people have two fields, and how I can get two? (newby since yesterday)

"Fields" are normally termed "castles" (unlike the castle looking building within a "castle", which is called a "keep"), which are gained by conquering outposts (either player or NPs), but you need an estate to do that, and you need to be 13th level to have an estate. Easy, right? 8|

Also, "plant" is just the nickname of a resource building (quarry, farmhouse, woodcutter), and has nothing to do with wood resources. The number of efficient plants is determined by the outposts you conquer. If an outpost has Stone 6/Food 2, that means you can build up to six quarries and two farmhouses, all at 100% production, afterwhich normal production deductions apply.
