I call for your help once again:)

[Zisef]

I picked Dwarf/Sage to have some fun this age. I was thinking of going something like this for the start of my protection. I have not started with every one in many years! I came in the middle of this past age so, I started with additional resources. Can some one give me some pointers what I should be building first? I put some schools in there so I could start adding small bits of science to start that long grind for knowledge :). Let me know what you think. Do I need more farms then this later with the increased food?

no schools. run 25% armouries instead.

[nooblet]

No schools in prot.

[Zisef]

All the rest looks alright? Thanks for the input.

[Twyla]

My own inclination were I running Dwarf Tactician (for Initial Build):

10% Homes
10% Farms
27% Banks
27% Armouries
18% Guilds
8% Towers

Since you can't adjust Draft Speed in Protection (and the more military you can come OOP with the better), the Armouries reduce Draft Expenses by 45%. You can throw up Patriotism and still be money ahead in drafting.

With the Banks kicking out 3105 gc/tick and providing a 28.33% overall income boost, the Armouries' 34% reduction to Training Costs will let you come OOP with a solid Elite offense - training all the Soldiers you can draft during Protection, even with Patriotism.

You have a lot of guilds. I take it you want to play a mage role? If not, I suggest dropping them a bit for more banks and arms.
As others have pointed out, drop the schools.
If you intend to explore you should definitely build extra farms. You should probably do that anyway just to be safe.

[Zisef]

Yeah, I was going to put the other acres into Farms,Banks. I was wanting to pump my WPA up I hate the clutch fizzles. I could drop it to 20% and distribute between banks/arms. Thanks guys!

[Demented Logic]

What is the typical science rate people use during protection?

[Zisef]

What were the 3 main sciences I should focus on? In the order again I tried looking up the post I couldn't find it.

[Palem]

Income
Population
Tools

[dsfb78]

1000 in each first.

[Azureflames]

Is it beneficial to turn off draft until your population is max/close to max?

[Palem]

Yes.
