Engineering

Engineering turns a patch of dirt into a fortress. It is the difference between sheltering and settling.

What It Does

Engineering governs how fast a character builds and repairs base structures — walls, buildings, production machines and defences.

Hidden Effects

Higher Engineering dramatically cuts construction time, which matters most under raid pressure when walls need to go up before the next attack.

How XP Works

Engineering trains through construction — the more building a character does, the faster they build.

Best Training Methods

Assign dedicated builders and keep them constructing. Early base projects double as Engineering training.

Common Mistakes

Spreading construction across many low-skill characters. A couple of dedicated, high-Engineering builders finish a base far faster.
