Resources
Gold
Gold is gathered by a dwarf, who goes to a gold mine and brings the gold gathered to the Center of Belief/Faith/Existance. Gold can be used:
- by dwarfves to build buildings in combination with wood
- by dwarves to repair buildings or mechanical units in combinations with the resources which were needed to create the object
- by the Center of Belief/Faith/Existance to train Transformers
- by the transformer to transform into another unit in combination with (global) mana
Gold is the most important resource in the game for Mountain Mages.
Wood
Wood is also gathered by a dwarf, who chops woods and brings the wood to the Center of Belief/Faith/Existance. Wood can be used:
- by dwarves to build buildings in combination with gold
- by dwarves to repair buildings or mechanical units in combinations with the resources which were needed to create the object
Mana (global)
Mana is a resource which can only be gathered by Mountain Mages - but either is only needed by Mountain Mages. Mana is gathered by Mana Mages placed in Mana Fields. The more Mana Mages are in a Mana Field, the more Mana the Mana Field produces. Mana doesn't have to be transported to anywhere. Mana is used:
- by the transformer to transform into another unit in combination with gold
Mana Keep
Each unit needs a current amount of Mana Keep. Mana Keep is a permanent resource, which doesn't need to be produced all the time. When a dwarf builds a Mana Field, you have 8 Mana Keep more. So when you have 2 Mana Fields, you have 16 Mana Keep. But when a Mana Mage is inside a Mana Field, he reduces the amount of Mana Keep provided by this Mana Field. So a Mana Field with 2 Mana Mages inside only provides 6 Mana Keep - instead of the usual 8. Mana Keep is used by the transformer. When he wants to transform into a unit, he needs a current amount of Mana Keep. Also producing a transformer takes 1 Mana Keep.
