The Crystal

To save your just born child, you bound her life to a crystal.
Her precious life was saved. But Death can not easily be cheated.
As time went by, the crystal becomes more hungry.
So you set out to find ways to satisfy it,
However the world did not sit idly by to get consumed.
Armies are gathered. Heroes are summoned.
War is immanent.

[How to play]
Inside the citadel you can find upgrades.
Outside you can send armies from your citadel to cities to collect life force, influence and money.

[Inside]
* Click furniture to find upgrades.
* Click the map table to go outside/tactical view.

[Outside]
* Click on the Citadel or an army and click a destination (city/town/tree);
* Combine armies together;
* Armies can be send home to increase the citadels power;
* Towns/Castles or the Citadel max strength collapses if it less than 1/4 of the max strength;
* Max strength can be restored by sending an army back home (strength + army > max strength = new max strength)
* Sending out armies decreases the citadels strength, however it recovers over time;
