Lake

Basic Information
The terrain spaces surrounding your City are called wildlands, and the watery ones with some coconut trees on are called Lakes. When hovering over them with the mouse pointer, it will give information about the benefit it will give you when you have conquered it. Clicking it will give information about current ownership and also give the possibility to scout it out or attack it.

Features
The lake of Rock Age is a valley type that will increase your grain production. Lakes are pretty popular for players to conquer, as many players need grain to feed their armies.

All wildlands increase your resource production apart from plains, which are valleys you can conquer and build new cities on.

All wildlands can be conquered and gathered for gems except plains.

Tips
Scouting or attacking a wildland (without a city!) does not break the Beginner's Protection, even if it is currently owned by another player.

You get a better chance to gain Moonstone, Pearl and Coral by gathering in Lakes.

Like I said before, the percentage the wildland will increase your resource production depends on the level of the wildland, but it can also vary between wildlands of the same level too. Number of troops and type of troops that defend each wildland also differs, but generally higher level wildlands have more and stronger troops.
