The Iron Mines

To the east, the green grass gives way to rocky red earth. This is the Mining District, also known as the Iron Mines. It is a place of hard labor, loud machinery, and great wealth.

The Resource

Iron Ore is the lifeblood of Wildoria's military and industry. Without it, there are no swords, no heavy armor, and no reinforced walls.

Mining Operations

  • Surface Mining: Safe and accessible. Yields Copper and low-grade Iron.
  • Deep Shafts: Requires ventilation and lighting. Yields High-grade Iron, Gold, and precious gems.

Hazards

The mines are not safe. The sound of pickaxes often wakes things that sleep in the dark.

  • Cave Bats: Swarm in the upper levels. Annoying but manageable.
  • Rock Golems: Creatures made of living stone. They are nearly immune to physical damage and must be cracked open with heavy blunt weapons.

Warning: The lower levels contain pockets of explosive gas. Torches are strictly prohibited in designated zones.
