Your Home Base is your center on the map. Your First Settlement automatically becomes your Home Base.
Protection
If you've opened the game in the last 5 days, no one can raid your Home Base.
- If you don't open it at all for 5 days, the protection ends. Your Home Base can be raided and starts to wear down like your other land.
- Days covered by a Decay Guard count as days played.
Why does it matter for spreading?
You can only spread from land that is connected to your Home Base without a break. If you lose your Home Base, you can't spread anywhere until you choose a new one.
Moving your Home Base
You can move your Home Base to another of your lands. Moving is free. Requirements:
- The target must be your land.
- There must be no raid going on at the target.
- The target must have been yours for at least 24 hours. If you took it with a raid, 24 hours must have passed since you conquered it.
- After you move it, you wait 168 hours before the next move. The first move has no wait.
Your old Home Base turns into normal land right away and loses its protection.
Moving your Home Base is the only way to grow in a faraway area: Growing far away.
