As players get more residents in Anno 117: Pax Romana, they will have to find a way to meet all of their needs to upgrade their homes and level them up. This will give them access to more resources and production chains. Liberti residents become Plebeians when the player upgrades their home, and their needs shift completely.
How To Increase City Status In Anno 117 Pax Romana
City Status in Anno 117: Pax Romana can unlock new features for the player's city, but most importantly affect the city's attribute.
After the Plebeian population increases, they will need Amphorae, which require several items in order to be made. Players will find Resin in the Amphorae production chain. However, some gamers won't have access to resin right away in Anno 117: Pax Romana - this guide tells them how they can obtain it.
How to Find Resin Fertility in Anno 117 Pax Romana
Starting an Amphorae production chain is crucial to keeping Plebeian residents happy in Anno 117: Pax Romana. Resin is a crucial part of Amphorae production, so players will want to make sure that their island has Resin Fertility so they can place a Resin building and begin extracting the product.
To check if an island has Resin Fertility, players must hover over the island in-game and look down at their mini-map - all of its fertilities will appear on the northeastern part of the map circle. If their island doesn't have any Resin Fertility, they will either have to trade to obtain it or settle a new city on another island so they can produce their own resin.
Players will want to use a boat to scout and discover other islands so they can find land with Resin Fertility. Besides checking the mini-map when visiting an island, gamers can open the province map and take a look at all of their discovered island and their available resources.
How to Start Resin Production in Anno 117 Pax Romana
Once players have found an island with Resin Fertility, it's time to start thinking about setting up a Resin production building. However, they will first have to meet their Liberti's needs so they can upgrade them to Plebeians, as they will need 3 Plebeians to initiate Resin production. To construct the building, they will need 2 Timber and 2 Tiles. If gamers want to reach 100 percent productivity, they will also want to place the Resin building in a Forest Area with 45 trees. Lastly, they will have to cover maintenance costs for the building, which is 8 Denarii.
To sum up, here is everything players will need to start Resin production in Anno 117 Pax Romana:
- Land with Resin Fertility
- 3 Plebeian residents
- 2 Timber
- 2 Tiles
- Forest area with 45 trees
- 8 Denarii for maintenance
