Towers

In Golden Battles, Towers are special buildings which are designed to help and protect players in their fights. A city can have only one tower at a time, but each tower can be upgraded from level 1 to level 5. The value of a tower is represented by war competition points.

The following table will show you the benefits of a tower based on it's level:

Building a tower

To build a tower the citizens of a country have to work together at country workplaces. These workplaces are managed by the president of each country. The president is allowed to open new headquarter in any city, but he/she cannot change the wage. The wage in country workplaces is the same with the unemployment benefits wage. Taking jobs from country workplaces has the same workflow as working for private companies. Working takes 8 hours but the player will receive his wage from the country. To start working and building a tower go to Economy/Jobs and check the country workplace below the private company workplaces list.
