Dragons of Atlantis: Heirs to the Dragon is one of the most popular iOS fantasy RPG games. Dragons of Atlantis is heavily bases on resources and time. Learning to manage both efficiently is key to having a great time playing. It will also allow you to level quicker and advance to the more advanced parts of the game.
What to do when you first start
Dragons of Atlantis is very dependent on resources. There are 5 major resources and several alternative resources. The 5 major resources are Food, Wood, Stone, Metal and Gold. All aspects of the game revolve around these resources. Learning to balance the use of these resources and the methods to acquire them are key.
The first thing you need to do when you start the game is to build several homes. On the city view click empty plots and select home. This will build a home. Each home takes 5 seconds to make and a few resources. You will have enough resources at the beginning to create many building so don't worry about your resources yet. Homes increase your population which is needed for your army and also for any resource buildings. Create three more homes to get enough population going to create the buildings in the next step.
Switch to the resource view by clicking on the map icon in the lower left side of the game. On an empty plot create 1 farm, 3 lumbermill, 3 mine and 3 quarry. Food is the easiest resource to get so we only want one farm. After you build 3 of each resource building, begin to upgrade them. As your available population decreases you will need to create more homes or upgrade the ones that you have. I recommend building 7 homes total. As you build each building and upgrade you will be completing quest. These quest give you resources so you will replenish most of it not more of the resources used to build these buildings. You will want to shoot for upgrading all of the resource buildings to level 4 or 5. Upgrade all of the homes to around level 5 as well.
The reason you create these first is because these building produce resources over time. The more upgraded they are, the faster they generate resources. If you wait till you are low on resources, it will take a longer time to get enough for upgrades.
Now switch back to the city view. Build a garrison. Upgrade the garrison to level 3. Begin making Conscripts. These are the basic army units. Make 100 Conscripts. If at any time you begin to run low on a resource, you will be prompted to use an item. You get one or 2 free resource gifts for each type. Use one of the gifts to replace your resources.
After you have 100 Conscripts switch to the world view. Click the green shield button at the top of the map. This will turn the level identifier on. Look for level 1 wilderness patches. Try to find a close level 1 tree resource. You can take these over with 100 Conscript and begin to get extra resources. If at any time one of your resources is getting low, use your army to attack a level 1 wilderness of the resource type you need. Continue to upgrade your garrison. Build a Science Hall and begin researching. Upgrade the Science Hall whenever possible. This will allow you to train more powerful troops.
Other tips and tricks
In Dragons of Atlantis food is by far the easiest resource to acquire. Do not make multiple farms. Once you are strong enough to take over Anthropus camps you will never need food again. A level 1 Anthropus camp will give over 20,000 food per attack. Anthropus camps also give a lot of wood and a small amount of the other resources. Try to quickly reach the point where you can hire Long Bowmen. These will allow you to take over level 5 wilderness patches.
Make sure to always keep something building and researching. After the first few levels it begins to takes hours or even days to upgrade things. So you will always want to keep things either upgrading or building. Plan to do upgrades that take hours right before bedtime so that when you wake up you will have a fresh start.
Always have a much larger army than needed to take over a camp or a wilderness. The closer to the required army you are, the more units will be killed. If you have an army much larger than the required amount you rarely lose any units.
Always try to get stronger troops. Constantly upgrade your garrison. Build multiple garrisons so that the time it takes to hire units is substantially lowered.
Dragons of Atlantis gets its name from the Dragon that sits in your town. Upgrade your Dragon quickly. This is used to defend your castle but also to be used to fight and conquer wilderness and Anthropus camps.
