Bricks are a modular construction material

Bricks are used for construction and research,

• Your available Brick is listed, in an inventory, after you get some.

Access

Brick appears, on Crafting, after you research Masonry on Technologies.

• You can craft Brick, after you research Masonry.
• Masonry has a requirement to access and research.

Technology required:
Technology	Requirement	Research cost
Masonry	invest 10 000 Knowledge in any branch	Block	3 000
		Frame	20
		Knowledge	1 300

• You can also:
  • automate production, with a Marketer, on Jobs;
  • get some on expeditions, with Military; and
  • buy some from the Merchant, at Market.

Craft

You can craft Brick, on Crafting, after you research the required technology.

• You need 500 Sand and 150 Clay, to craft Brick.

Resources required:
Resource	Amount
Sand	500
Clay	150

• You can increase the amount of Bricks crafted, for the base cost, with increases to Craft efficiency.
• You can craft multiple amounts at a time, with Workbenches and Factories.
• After you research Logistics, you can craft Bricks directly from the inventory.

Production

• Marketers, on Jobs, produce 0.0005 Brick per second.

Brick production:
Producer	Rate
Marketer	0.0005 per second

• Other factors increment production.

Uses

• Bricks are used, to:
  • research, on Technologies;
  • construct, on Buildings;
  • construct, on Crafting; and
  • construct, on Facilities.

Use of bricks:
Use	Item	Amount
