can you change the button row at the bottom of the screen to a tab bar or make this an option?

hi all,

loving this game.

i can't quite work out though how to best use the sole wells. i fill them then infuse and let them do their thing but i don't know what the moding growth or fruiting buttons do.
in addition to that, how can i increase my coal output? so far i have 5 workers doing coal but i can't get any more than that it seems.

Keep trying, the stuff should come up eventuallly.

It's a little annoying tapping on start battle then hoping it does only to find out the other creatures ran away. I think Voiceover should get an alert when this happens so we know to either try again or try anothe army.

Okay just a quick question, beware of spoilage for anyone who hasn't finished the game and defeated the marshland pact.

once I defeated the marshland pact, I got a log entry saying "end of version 1.0), however there was another army, absurd knolls, with 500 units to defeat and lore entry listed as a reward.

I admit I did cheat a bit, or at least I waited until I had neary twice their army size and then proceeded to masacre them.
I got the happy ending sequence, however it mentions a portal being made. I wondered if this meant something new or a different option? but I don't see one.
Of course there is the "reset" option in the settings, unless it means that.

Even odder, once I defeated the marshland pact, I got two new towns, and indeed one I haven't exploited yet.

Am I missing something, or is defeating the 500 unit army really the absolute end at this point in time (for a start I would've assumed they'd have had a more dramatic name).

if so, fair enough, the game has been a lot of fun, although I am a wee bit sorry those dragons mentioned in one of the lore entries didn't make an appearance because dragons are cool!

Ah, good to know.

Hopefully there will be some more in future updates, or maybe even a sequel?
Either way, I'm glad I bought the full version.

@137: spoiler warning!

You get valkeries by semding troops to valhalla. Its a way to get rid of your weaker units without having to kill them off, and the new units are the strongest im the game that will come once you have offered enough units to Valhalla.

Spoiler:

You can get a limitless supply of them by offering up units, not sure you can offer up valkyries though.

it's a shame that there's not more to the game though i mean once i got into it i completed it. i wish there was more to it.

@titan_of_war, your username aside, homequest is as much about the resource building as the battles, since it's not just a matter of chucking the cheapest possible troops at an enemy, but also having the best troops you can afford, since the higher your battle score and the better you can attack and defend yourselves, the better you can do against the enemy.

I can't remember what troops unlocked when you fight the elder shamans, but there are plenty stronger and better able units than warriors in the game, and you want both a good mix of offense and defence.
This will mean having the resources to buy them of course, which means investing in more population, more farms, more resource gatherers etc, really Homequest is a very good example of the principle that an army marches on it's stomach .

Btw, I finished the game before the Valkyrie update came out, like Darren, I'd love to see more content with the story continued, indeed there was an implication in the log that there was more to come, so I'm personally hoping we'll be getting more armies to fight, territories to conquer and the like soon.

I'd recommend 20 wolves, 10 archers and 10 warrior.
Remember to sometimes rest though. After Shamans,
