Riot

Village begins rioting if any of the resources are negative. This is a reflection of the situation where there is not enough food to be consumed, wages cannot be paid, not enough resources are available to maintain buildings or units and everything deteriorates.

If you wish to construct buildings or train units, try to estimate their effect on resource production and consumption. This gets more difficult if you have more actions to perform and place them in a queue. If you train 10 units that will be ready at same time, your food and gold production is likely to drop notable. Also, putting 10 buildings in a queue and taking a longer break from playing may result in serious impact on the resources if you are not careful.

Rioting has the following consequences on your village:

• You cannot construct buildings, train units or put them in a queue.
• Buildings under construction and unit training will not be finished.
• Units will not recover, and their level will not be upgraded.
• You cannot cast spells.
• Rioters may burn down buildings which uses that negative resource. The more negative, more chance it is burned.
• If the food is in a negative range, units may die.
• If culture/spirit is in a negative range, units which needs culture/spirit may die.
• Riot is logged into history page and it might lure the other hostile tribes to attack you because you are vulnerable.
• Moving units is not possible if units do not have needed resources.

You may suppress rioting in a few ways:

• You may acquire special item Law and order to restore order.
• Transfer the needed resources from another village using Trademan.
• Purchase the needed resources (Trader's Guild and Trademan are required).
• Decrease the level of a building which requires that resource(s).
• Transfer resource from other player.
• Cultural riot is usually because of Potato Field, be careful with that building. If there are no buildings or units which produce culture, you need to move Jester there to get culture positive.
