At 4% defense bonus two of them have the same impact as a Ritual Flame, but with the added placement flexibility of each only taking up a single tile. The Watchfire has many useful characteristics.

The upgrade adds 2% to the Watchfire for a total of 6%.

Its upgraded version will then be placed directly on the same spot in your city. To upgrade the Watchfire, use the Watchfire Upgrade item on the Watchfire that is already situated in your city. I could be in trouble if I get reshuffled and end up in the bottom half of a new hood but we all have to take chances and I will be levelling up my Deal and St Basil just in case.The Watchfire can be upgraded by Watchfire Upgrade Kit item. So, I have taken the opposite view from Sir lanceaboil. Watchfires are also good for young cities who may not yet have got offensive or defensive GBs. He was a bit slow to get the message but he did stop attacking.įor players in the top ten in their Hood I think they would be relatively safe but for players lower down the rankings then added defence from watchfires will be useful because their offensive capability may not be so great to successfully attack higher ranked players. In one of my cities I was attacked 4 times by one player but each time I retaliated and plundered his buildings. Apart from the defensive capability of their city, players also need to consider their offensive capability as well because this will act as a deterrent to an aggressor. Having read this discussion, I assessed the value of my watchfires and considering the relatively few times I have been attacked I have decided to delete them.
