Build time and upgrade cost by level

Every upgrade to Embassy costs food, wood, stone and iron in a fixed 1 : 0.8 : 0.5 : 0.4 ratio, and takes a time derived from this plot's own base of 5 seconds. The curve has two phases: it climbs gently to level 26 — the end of the opening ramp, which the whole early game is paced around — and compounds harder above it, so the summit costs a real hoard as well as real patience.

Embassy: cost and raw build time at each sampled level (before alliance help, speed-ups or build-speed research).

Reinforcement capacity by level

The Embassy decides how many friendly swords your walls can hold at once. A keep with no Embassy still gets a standing courtesy of 1,000 — enough for a token guard — and every level adds 5,000 more. This is the alliance-defence lever: it is the difference between an ally being able to help and an ally having to watch.

Embassy: allied troops your keep can host as reinforcements.

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.
