During play I have troubles to run enhanced buildings properly, because I can't find out which kind of workers I need in this buildings. I have biggest troubles with Barbarians mines and War Mill.

In mines, I had Deep Coal Mine with Master Miner and Chief Miner and Deep Iron Mine with 2 Master Miners. I enhanced both at once. First was finished Iron mine and it begin work with Master Miner, Chief Miner and Miner. After that a Coal Mine was finished, but it was filled with 2 Master Miners and it stay waiting for 1 more worker, but I don't know why, because I have enough Picks to make more Miners.

So it would be helpful, if there will be possibility to kick worker from building, or better overview about enhancement at least.

I find that sometimes the war mill will be short 1 worker, I build another metalworks and wait until it has produced at least 1 item then upgrade (to kick worker out) and then destroy it, the worker will go fill the position open at the war mill. Same works for mining, or just build another mine and when you upgrade another, a worker will go fill open positions. Hope this helps,,, Richard

based on my experience, you have to fill the advanced mines with chief or master mountains, not just normal miners. Build another small mine, let that miner use up the minerals available to him, then wheen you upgrade his mine, he will move the one that was waiting for a worker.


I hied to Kolob and all I got was this lousy planet.
