I have watched a lot of first weeks now, most of them painful.

Your first keep is practice. Treat losing it as tuition, not disaster.

Build one thing well rather than five things badly. This is true in every week, but it is cheapest to learn now.

Ask sooner than feels comfortable. Everyone here did.

House rules. Be civil, keep it on-topic, and no spam, harassment, or real-world personal details — yours or anyone else's. Bug reports belong in their own section. Moderators may lock or remove anything that breaks these rules.

Iron Realms is an original work of fantasy strategy. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any other game or franchise, and “Iron Realms” is a working project name rather than necessarily the final title. Its lore, names and artwork are original or used under CC0/CC-BY/OFL licences (see the in-game Credits). The community section also hosts unofficial fan tributes — quizzes and diversions made for fun, not part of the game — which name other fictional worlds under their own labels and are likewise not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to their rights holders. Pre-alpha, built in public. Nothing is for sale. No payment is accepted, and any price named here describes the intended model only. This is an early build — features, balance and prices are conceptual and may change or disappear between visits, and progress may be reset. Treat anything here as work in progress rather than a promise.
