Mid Game · The Long Siege
Sanctuary 21–29
To upgrade your Sanctuary from level 20 to 21, you need Research Lab 20, Training Grounds 20, Lumberyard 10 and 254 Clinic stars. It costs 85.5M Grain, 85.5M Timber and 27.6M Herbs and takes 6d 16h 20m before any speed-ups. It raises your heroes’ level cap from 100 to 105.
What you need
To upgrade from Sanctuary 20 to 21.
- Research Lab 20 · my take: keep up with your Sanctuary
- Training Grounds 20 · my take: keep up with your Sanctuary
- Lumberyard 10 · my take: park for later
- 254 Clinic stars. Upgrade your Wards to earn them.
Those buildings have needs of their own. The Sanctuary build path plans every step from Sanctuary 20, on as many build queues as you have.

What it opens
More of a building
- Weaving Workshop: you can have 5 now
Research (Research Lab 21)
- Hero: Warrior Mastery II, Ranger Mastery II and Warlock Mastery II
- Soldier: Survival Training VII and Load Training VII
- Offensive Tactics (a new tree): Bloody Battle I, Rapid Assault I, High Alert I and Heavy Duty 1
- Defensive Tactics (a new tree)
- 66 more levels of research you already have
It also lets 29 of the buildings you already have go higher. From Sanctuary 7 on, a building can only be as high as your Sanctuary, which is why the Sanctuary sets the pace for everything.
Where it fits
Sanctuary 21 is part of the mid game (Sanctuary 21–29). Level up and contribute to your alliance. The hard part: upgrades stretch from days to weeks.
Next up, Sanctuary 22 asks for Research Lab 21, Warrior Statue 21 and Herb Garden 10, and takes 8d 16h 26m. Getting those ready while this upgrade runs keeps your builders busy.
