FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Learning the Basics
The journey to power begins with understanding. It's not rocket science, but you need to understand the rules of the game. Core elements like troops, buildings, and technology play a crucial part in power gain. Just remember, Rome wasn’t built in a day, and gaining power rapidly in Rise of Kingdoms also requires time and effort.
Building Your Base
Think of your base as your stronghold. A formidable base sets the groundwork for a strong kingdom. Focusing on upgrading your buildings can give your power rating a generous boost. Don't bite off more than you can chew, though! Balance is key, so ensuring all your structures are at par with each other is essential.
Training Your Troop
This seems a no-brainer, right? Wrong! The devil is in the details. Quality trumps quantity. Don't just train troops willy-nilly. Strategize your training to include high-level troops. Higher the level, greater the power contribution.

Research is Key
Knowledge is power, they say, and this is especially true in Rise of Kingdoms. Technology research accelerates your power boost. Prioritize it and your kingdom’s power levels will shoot up before you can say Jack Robinson! But, what should I research first? Focus on enhancing your economic and military technology.
Commanders - Your Power Pillars
Commanders are your knights in shining armour, literally. They lead your armies and boost your combat abilities. Don't put all your eggs in one basket though. Diversify your commander line-up to ensure you are prepared for every possible battle scenario.
Joining an Alliance
Two heads are better than one, so imagine what a whole alliance can do! Joining an alliance works wonders on your power levels. Plus, the benefits of shared resources and backup in battles aren’t too shabby either.
Participating in Events
Several events sprinkle across the Rise of Kingdoms landscape. Participating in these can bestow major power boosts, not to mention the shower of rewards that accompany them.
So, how about it? Ready to rise to power in the game of kingdoms? Remember, power comes to those who dare to rise. And now, you have all the secrets to kickstart your undaunted rise in the game, Rise of Kingdoms.
