Farm Alliance & Farm Castle · WaO Field Guide

Your main castle shouldn't spend its time gathering RSS. Its stats should be built for fighting, and its troops should be helping the alliance, not sitting in resource tiles. Let farms do the gathering, and keep your main castle on gems.

Farm alliance

A farm alliance is built purely for farming: its technology and position are all about resources.

Your main alliance focuses its technology on fighting.
A farm alliance focuses on Production technology, not War or Other.

Alliance technology Production tab — Production technology: what a farm alliance researches.

Alliance technology War tab — War technology: for your main alliance.

Alliance technology Other tab — Other alliance technology.

Keep leadership active

If the alliance leader doesn't log in for 3 days, leadership transfers to the Deputy with the highest battle power. If not enough members log in, it transfers to the next active member. If no one logs in for 7 days, the alliance buildings disappear.

Alliance member rank permissions table — What each rank can do.

Alliance buildings rules — Buildings are removed if every member is offline for 7 days.

Open or close the farm alliance

R4 and above can change the farm alliance settings. Review your farm settings and share leadership with others for the benefit of your main alliance. The Open setting lets farm defenders join quickly to help defend.

Manage Alliance screen with Alliance Settings — Go to Manage Alliance → Alliance Settings.

Open

No approval needed. Set the minimum power and castle level so only your farm defenders qualify.

Close

Approval needed for anyone to join.

Recruitment setting: no approval needed — Open: no approval needed, with minimum power and castle level.

Recruitment setting: approval needed — Closed: approval needed.

Farm castle

A farm castle is built differently from a main castle. Its lord skills go into Development, not War, and it benefits from the farm alliance's production technology. The key stats:

Gather speed

How fast a march fills up.

Load

How much each march carries home.

Gather boost

Temporary gathering buffs.

Production rate

What your inner-castle tiles produce.

There are good videos on setting up farms. Search "WaO farm", or start with the Farming 101 guide on the War and Order wiki.

Moving between realms

Useful when making farms or moving realm. From the official War and Order Facebook post (June 2016, "How to Teleport Between Realms"): if you meet the requirements, select the realm on the Globe Map and tap your chosen spot with an Elite Teleport.

Your castle must be 2 days old or less.
Your castle must be level 7 or lower.
