Hello all.  I know this is a bit simple but I don't have time to go all out just yet.  I hope this helps get you started.   This isn't going to answer all your questions.  I even have questions still.  But over time hopefully this page can become a big help to everyone.  Even if it only helps a few it is worth it.

Beginning:  I can't stress enough how important it is to early on simply follow the quest.  They will help you answer alot of the early questions you may have.  Also upgrade your farm lands.  You can never have enough food.  Try and make sure you get some bless of buildings activated so you can build multiple things at the same time.  It will help you build alot faster.  If you log into the game every day for 7 straight days you get a free bless of building.  You can also buy them with gold in the shop.  Make sure you only upgrade your wood and iron to level 5.  This is very important.  Any more than that isn't needed and is just wasing valuable castle space.   You can only upgrade so much to your castles. Your castle space is located on the top left of your screen.  it is 181 spaces that are available to be upgraded.  You can add to this by opening silver and gold chest and getting something called a : Hera Bless and also a Bless of Space 1.  You can buy them with gold to expand your castle size to give you most space.  Wood and Iron are the least important because you can convert silver into wood and iron.  To convert silver into wood, iron and food you can click on your resource tab and click on the exchange tab on the right.  There you can convert resources back and forth as needed.  Castle space is needed to upgade your court and academy and wall etc which are more important than wood and iron.  Also make a note that when you research stuff in your academy it does not take up your castle space.  So upgrade everything in research with no waste of space.

Another important thing to think about in the early going.  Going to your downtown and getting your Construction Bureau upgraded.  The higher that is upgraded the faster your builds will go.  Get it up to about 14-15 early on if possible and up to 22 when you can.  This way your building of Wall and Arena etc will upgrade much faster so you can get stronger quicker!
