Okay to find workers, at the moment the game reads all the names of workers for a different type, EG resources, production, and then gives you plus and minus buttons.
So if you swipe right from resources it'll tell you "farmers", then how many you have and max possible, then lumberjacks and the same information, then quarrymen and the same information, and when you get hunters they go on the end there.
After that are plus and minus buttons, so at the moment you need to count, Eg if you want to assign quarrymen to get stone for you, you need to go to the third plus along.
it's a miner pest but doable.

the one thing which is mildly irritating me at the moment is a total and completely utter lack of battle information. I get that the enemy units are displayed first and you can  through them to see what they are, but when you hit "start battle" there is no log or report or indicator of what happened, it  updates with the next phase information.
it also seems is even if you won, you need to hit "retreat" and then hit "send army"immediately after, and indeed the only way of knowing you won is that the phase number changes, where as if you lost and your  enough you might catch a "army retreated", if your lucky.

Is there any more way of getting battle information? or is this it, since I'd really like a bit more indication of what's going on, especially since sometimes my army seems to run away even if I outnumber the enemy and I'm not entirely sure why.

I'm having a weird problem on my Iphone 8 where I boot up the game and it freezes effecctively at the loading screen. I'm still early on in the game, just building my first units but I'm stuck somehow and now that I've left the game. I can't really get back.

Yeah the unit numbering for the enemy doesnt make sence to me at the moment. It doesnt even decrease when you advance stages.

Overkill is the answer to all your problems Dark. Never forget it!

Okay, I definitely think either I am not getting these battles, or the system is really weird about when it calculates that your army runaway.
I began fighting the elder shamans with an army of 34, comprising 18 warriors, 7 archers and 7 wolves.
When I got to wave 17, my army suddenly wimped out, despite still having 17 units left, including 12 warriors and 5 archers, and despite only fighting about 10 enemies.

i definitely think there is a weird thing in how attack order is calculated, since once again, all the wolves die first before the supposedly tanking warriors.

Again I'll just have to wait until I get more food to make a bigger army, but it'd be good to  kno how the battles went down, since I do believe sighted players can physically watch the battle in terms  which units die, and possibly even condition status indicated by something like text colour so they can bale out if units are close to death.

Next time I'll try more wolves.

Glad to hear that Brad,
I suspect this could end up turning into the next Evelyn's farm or a dark room, and goodness knows we need more complex strategy games with good story.

I rarely double post but got a question. How do I get jade for my healers?

Ok will try to do that.

I have enough resources to build a second monument, but I can't. Any idea why?

Got 2 of them now.

I kinda wish we could change some of the units, even at a cost would be nice. I think I have more warriors than I need right now, like 17. On the plus side, I have 3 healers now and my group has enough strength to sustain itself against the regular underlings at least. I'm just waiting for enough resources to build a new Baraks, then I'll up the attack and heal capability of the army to go after the next group.

What I started doing is watch the army number while idling on the army tab, and start training wolves to replace the ones that fall. If the numbers start to quickly drop, I jump over to the world tab and call them back. I'm thinking maybe it isnt such a bad idea to have so many warriors, since they take longer to kill. Just wonder what the right balance is to make things go quicker without taking casualties.

No It's completely offline.

Spoiler:

I unlocked the plantation, but now I need glass. Where do I get that?

End spoiler.

It looks like they do actually arrange themselves accordingly, since swiping left unit by unit, I notice that the healers are on the way back, then the archers, then the warriors, then the wolves.
