How does the size of village claims work?

[Squee]

Do village claims start out as the same size as personal claims' base size? Also, are village claims the same price for expanding?

village claims work a lot different

they start off a bit smaller then a minimap in size and you expand them with things like banners and soldier statues, all of them consume authority points over time and you get authority points by earning lp as a member of the village, if authority ever gets to 0 the village disbands completely, but dont worry unless you place 20 banners with just 2 people in the village or nobody logs on for a few weeks thats not going to happen.

Oh, thankyou! I had forgotten about the banners thing... What do statues do, then? The same thing?

yes, just a slightly larger area and it's slightly more efficient for auth drain to max auth ratio
