• Expand your Dungeon: This usually takes the form of absorbing soil to create either corridors and rooms. This does cost 1 MP for 1-tile corridors, and 3 MP for 1-tile rooms.
• Create Monsters: Use MP to create monsters from your Templates List.
• Create Traps: Once you have some Traps, you can create some from your Template List for the cost of MP.
• Order Monsters: This is a free action. You can set where your monsters will be, or any actions to take.
• Expand: In some cases, you may come across places that are hollow or empty of earth. In this case, you can claim them for half the cost it would take to create that space from earth. It is possible to expand outside, though this has some bad tidings for your future.

Spoiler: For 10 MP per day plan, (click to show/hide)

Get 12 Giant Rats as target army expansion at 0.5 MP Upkeep x 12 = 6 MP/day. 
That leaves 4 MP for expansion and reserves for learning Traps or better minions.
I am unsure if reserved MP is place in some pool?

So, for an initial base layout, 6 corridors long to our current room.  1 in, 1 out to defend or die. 
I would prefer 20 to 30 1-tile corridors before reaching out home tile.

Are the pink area corridors, gray area are walls? 

Suggest Action
2 x Giant Rat = 4 MP.
Explore the pink corridors.
Depends on what are revealed. 
6 reserved MP just in case we need to create more giant rats, or option to claim.

I assume we have a large mana pool reservoir, but only have 10 MP now, and 10 MP regen/day?

[TricMagic]

Your current max MP is 10. You gain 10 MP per day from your core room. That isn't going to change anytime soon.

Anything that requires upkeep will reduce your MP Regen however.

Note that currently, your monsters can't leave your dungeon areas.

Grey are in fact walls, pink is sewers.


This is mostly make actions, learn, improve, and repeat.

You do not really have a large pool, just 10 MP max. More corridors and rooms can and will change this, but I won't be explaining that till after you discover it.

[Kashyyk]

I suspect having more dungeon space will increase our MP capacity, or at least give us the opportunity to find MP batteries/generators.

I'd prefer to have some more Rats cos they're specifically called out as weak individually, but I think we can afford the risk right now.

Claiming Empty Territory x7. Cost [1 MP/2] x7 =3.5 MP spent.

Error! Room Found. .5 MP not spent. 3 MP spent in total.Corridoor Creates South for 1 MP.

It seems that when you create something, you need to give it orders, and you can't do anything afterward until your MP is full.

You can't tell how much time has passed. However, there seems to be a long room structure from where you can see.

The % is probably another corridor, but I'm not sure, and the Room may continue into the ? and beyond.

I would like to spend 6.5MP claiming the rest of the corridor above, plus the room, and then spend another 1MP extending our corridor South and our finL 2MP producing another Rat. Both Rats should then patrol the controlled corridors north of our Dungeon Heart.

+1 Agree, with some tweaks in the count:

9.5 MP regenned today
3 MP to claim Room (R)
2.5 MP to claim 5x corridors (1 left of R, 4 right of %)
= 4 MP remain. 

2 M Create 1x Giant Rat
1 M to create 1 corridor south 
Send 2 Giant Rats to new Room. 
1 M remain = can be used to claim % tile ?

Um, I know it should be noted, but to claim four room tiles that were already made costs 6. That is, to make a 1 tile room requires 3 MP normally. So you could claim 2 for 3.

Ahh, ok.

9.5 MP regenned today
6 MP to claim 4-tile Room (R)
= 3 MP remain.

2 M Create 1x Giant Rat
1 M to create 1 corridor south
Send 2 Giant Rats to new Room.
