Bank
In the Bank, you can purchase Gold, packages of equipment, items, and resources, and also buy a subscription.
Gold is required to instantly train and upgrade warriors, construct buildings, conduct Studies, craft Hero's and Inquisitors' equipment, promote Cardinals, and perform other in-game actions. You can also use Gold to purchase various items and Boosts that affect economic and military stats.
To go to the Bank, hit the corresponding icon in the upper right corner of the Town screen.
For many purchases in the Bank, you receive Gold as a gift. The amount is displayed next to the offer heading. In addition, you can see the percentage that you'll save (how much more Gold you would spend on buying the same items and resources in the Store).
The Bank window consists of four tabs: Your gift, Special, Packages, and Subscriptions.
Your gift
In this tab, you can see all the packages that you can receive as a gift. To obtain one of them, you need to fulfill one of the relevant requirements:
- Purchase something in the Bank.
- Purchase a certain amount of Gold.
If you set up a subscription that gives you Gold, only the bonus Gold counts toward the requirements of the "Purchase Gold" gift pack. The amount of this Gold is shown right after the name of the subscription. Gold that you receive during the time this kind of subscription is active doesn't count.
Any other Gold that you receive from Bank offers counts toward this gift pack's requirements.
If you fulfill the requirements for receiving a gift package, you will see a special marker on the tab.
You need to claim gift packages manually — they are not credited automatically. If the gift pack expires, and you fail to claim it, it will vanish.
If you claim all the packages, or if all the packages expire, the "Your gift" tab won't be displayed.
Special offers and packages
The Bank also has special offers, during which you can purchase Gold and particular packages of equipment, items, and resources at more favorable prices.
The currently active special offers are listed in the Special tab of the Bank window.
The duration of special offers, as well as the special bonus items and amount of Gold in packages, are customized for each player.
The packages can include equipment, items, resources, and Gold. The offers change from time to time. The current list of offers can be viewed in the Packages tab of the Bank window.
Subscriptions
After subscribing, you will receive resources, Silver, items, or Gold daily during the subscription period, depending on the kind of subscription you selected. In addition, when you buy a subscription, you immediately receive a gift of Gold.
The subscription fee is withdrawn once and won't be processed automatically in the future. To renew the subscription, you need to purchase it in the Bank again.
Among other subscriptions, you will see ones entitled "Trade Relations" and "Route Map." The first of these increases the capacity of carts that you send to Towns and to the Order Citadel and reduces the tax on sending resources. The second grants bonuses to carrying capacity and marching speed.
These bonuses are automatically activated after the subscription has been purchased. Information about their duration can be found in the Boosts section.
Go to the Bank daily and receive a reward. You can claim it in the Subscriptions tab, in the special box at the top of the screen. There you'll also see the timer displaying the time left until the next reward appears.
