[. . . ] Click on the up arrow to add more to the target hero, and on the down arrow if you decide you added too many. Click on OKAY when ready, or CANCEL if you don't want to redistribute troops after all. Be sure not to click into a box that already contains a unit (unless it is the same unit type) or you will replace the original unit entirely. NOTE: A hero must have at least one unit in his army. Artifacts: All but one artifact can be swapped between heroes. Spell Books are not permitted to be traded. To trade, highlight an artifact and click on a slot you want to move it to or on another artifact. R-click on any artifact to receive quick information. 41 Towns and Castles Town/Castle Window In your travels, you will run into many towns and castles. Towns provide many valuable services and creature dwellings. Half of this window is devoted to the town itself and the other half is divided between the hero's army and the town's garrison. You receive 250 gold per town and 1000 gold per castle every turn. The hero's crest and portrait will appear in the lower left of the window when he is in town. Each town you own will allow you to build improvements. If in an undeveloped town, a tent will appear in the upper half of the window. Click on the tent to bring up a window, offering a chance to purchase a castle (your starting town already has a castle). Upgrading towns to castles has a cost of 5000 gold, 20 wood, and 20 ore. Once you have built a castle you can expand your town by building other dwellings and structures. You may only build one building per turn (one turn equals one day). Creature dwellings make available more creatures for 42 recruiting every 7 days. Click on the castle to bring up the Castle Options Window. All buildings that can be built will appear in this window. Recruiting heroes also takes place here.
