Introduction
It's not easy to sum our clan by a one word description. We are many things and offer a wide band of opportunities. Our clan is a Skilling/Warring/Community/Organization type clan. This leaves our room for expansion endless. We take a multitude of players. It does matter if you’re a Combat Tank, Mage, Ranger, Pure, Skiller or whatever else you may classify yourself.Our clan is a place that anyone could fit in. We have members combat level 3 up into the 130's. Whatever your combat or skill level, we will accept you provided the following is the case. If you are Mature in nature, not necessarily and adult, if your character has a membership, we currently are not taking Free Players due to citadel default requirements. Check the links below for the one right for you for additional information.

History
Early summer, 2009 situated in a very small town in Middle America United States, you would have found a father, son and 2 friends. They are joined together in one enjoyable location. The vast world of Runescape was wondrous and unexplored.

They discovered challenges, and enjoyment of the fireworks as our characters leveled in skills. The feeling of overall satisfaction of accomplishment and pride in the completion of yet another quest filled their hearts. Discovering new stories about the Runescape world sparking our interest as whispers of battles between the Zamorak and Saradomin gods bounce about.

The four knew that they were onto something far larger and much more meaningful as they negated throughout the game side by side with each other. Something that was looking the group right in the eye yet they could not tell what it was. Disbelief and awe overwhelmed the group until they realized, it’s no mistake. The four gentlemen were headed straight for building one of the best clans in the game. The date is September 1st, 2009, the Runscape clan Masters Templar is born.

Over the next several months, Masters Templar saw many changes, face lifts, and some reconstruction. As time went on, and more knowledge was gained, the clans’ leader negotiated twists and turns with the clan by shaving here, and adding there. Molding the clan over a period of time had its advantages and disadvantages. Things seemed to put along for the clan and its members.

Then one grand and glorious day in April 2011, Jagex brought the game a historic update full of epic surprises for the clan community, the clan camp update. This was a massive event that changed the faces of clans in many ways. Some ways were great, and of course some not so great. But overall the update was an epic creation on the part of the entire Jagex staff. I Salute Jagex, Great job on that update, much needed.

Over the next four months, Masters Templar saw some drastic changes from within. And by this time only one founder remained at the head seat while 2 others circum to misfortune in remaining in the balance. The forth founder ventured afar from the clan in search of broadening his horizons with Runescape.

August 1st 2011, the clan bid farewell to its name Masters Templar to make way for a new and improved facelift yet once again. This time the expectations went to epic measures. Legion of Paragons introduced itself and its new colors with an even larger ambition. Weaving its infrastructure meticulously within itself is the key to making all of the operating parts run independently yet reliant on each other. Current day Legion of Paragons… Ball is definitely rolling well and the clan is thriving daily to achieve excellence. The overall purpose and goal is to render assistance and guidance in-game to each other when needed. My name is 19SIRE71, 19Mack71 previously. I am the leader and last remaining founder of Legion of Paragons aka Masters Templar in command to date.

Maxie is the clans number 2 member. In any case where Sire is absent for any reason for a length of time, Maxie steps up and is acting Clan Leader. She is the clans operations officer. Her duties include:
 * 1) Citadel - She Closes the citadel down to the entire clan the night before each weeks build tick takes place. This is to give time for her to examine the citadel, its new features, and its available build options for the next build week. In doing so, she compiles information vital for selecting the next build order. Once this process is complete, she will then set the goal for each resources and place the requirements in the motto field located in the clan details screen. This is accessable by selecting the clan details tab at the lower part of the clan chat interface. Maxie does have an opening for a Citadel Officer at the management level.
 * 2) Programs - Currently Maxie has 2 primary programs that are rolling in the clan. One program is the clan bank and the other is the clan lottery. She would collect all resources from the logistics secretary collected since the previous collection time, then deposit them into the clans bank.

She also keeps updated on daily jackpot amounts for the lottery.

Deputy_owner_clan_rank.pngsdiva
History:

Heartsdiva has held a few positions and has worn every rank from recruit up. Heartsdiva got involved in the clan near the end of summer 2009, just a few weeks after the founders started putting the clan together. She contributed alot to the ground work in which the clan was built upon. Due to personal reasons, she did take time off in most of 2010 and became fully active once again in late spring 2011.

Description:

Heartsdiva is the clans third in command. In the case Maxie 73 needs to step up as clan leader, heartsdiva would also step up as the clans second in command assisting Maxie. Heartsdiva is the clans administrations officer. Her duties include:
 * 1) Recruiting - She manages recruiting in the clan in the copacity equal to that of a director over a department. She stays current on new recruit applications on the threads as well as staffing the recruiting department. In full operation, heartsdivas recruiting department would consist of the following:
 * 1 Recruiting Officer (Administrator)
 * 1 Assistant Recruiting Officer (General)
 * 2 Recruiting Leaders (Captain)
 * 4 Recruiters (Lieutenant)
 * 8 Recruiting Assistants (Sergeant)

In all heartsdivas department fully staffed and operationally moving on all cylinders would be 28 members including herself.
 * 1) Training - Currently heartsdiva has no one placed in this department as of yet. She has been focusing on building the clans recruiting department. Somewhere near the middle of the build phase of the recruiting department, i suspect she will then start initializing the training department. When constucted, it will look similar to the following.
 * 1 Training Officer (Administrator)
 * 1 Assistant Training officer (General)
 * 2 Training Leaders (Captain)
 * 3 Trainers (Lieutenant)
 * 4 Training Assistants (Sergeant)

Clan Chat Rules
''' IF YOU ARE ALREADY HAVING A BAD DAY, AND FEELING COMBATIVE, I WOULD RECOMMEND YOU NOT EVEN GET ON THE GAME. IF YOU GET ON GAME AND EVEN TRY TO STAY OUT OF CLAN CHAT, THEN YOU ARE BREAKING RULE 02 OF THE BASIC CLAN RULES. BEST TO NOT EVEN LOG ON THE GAME. '''
 * 01. No Swearing, Abusive, or Offensive language in the clan. That includes clan chat, in open chat during clan events, or in a friends chat room during clan events. The language filter is not there to allow you to break this rule. The filter is there indended to be used as a safety devise against those people that break the rule. Lets face it, J-Mods and P-Mods cannot be everywhere at once.


 * 02. No Arguing in clan chat. Take all arguments outside of the clan chat. If they are flaming and no Higher ranks to kick, place on ignore until someone comes in and report to them, take a screen shot (pic) if possible.


 * 03. Insulting another clan member WILL NOT be tolerated.


 * 04. No discriminative jokes or insulting anyone who comes into cc. This includes jokes against race, color, gender, national origin, age, religion, creed, disability, veteran's status, sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression.


 * 05. No Flaming or Spamming in CC at any time. This is to include all members, visitors, allied clans and their members, even in the case of competition type allied joint events. We will show respect to other clans we war/participate in events with, otherwise we may not be invited to participate again, or they may not join our invite again.


 * 06. No begging for items or coins in clan chat. This is rather annoying and the point of the clan is to help you learn to obtain items and coins on your own. So if you are offered a pick-axe if you ask for coins, don't take offense. Feel lucky, you could be disciplined for it. And it may be bronze at that.


 * 07. Unless an Officer or Leader addresses you directly, do no interrupt, comment, question, challenge or otherwise bud into any situation where an officer or leader is dealing with correcting a clan member for breaking either Runescape and or Clan Rules.


 * 08. No calling of another in clan chat the names " NOOB, or "NEWB ".

NOTE: Jagex and Runescape considers the calling of others by the names " NOOB" and or "NEWB " describing ones lack of knowledge in the game. For this reason is supported by Jagex and Runescape. However, we in the clan and our leaders have witnessed this term used for flaming others in an abusive way to degrade others or otherwise use it in replacement for other name calling. For this reason, we do not support the terms " NOOB" and or "NEWB " to be used in our clan chat or to be used to reference other clan members or players of runescape. We do not have " NOOBS" or "NEWBS ". We have Future Experienced Players. There is no reason to call another a " NOOBS" or "NEWBS ". Its disrespectful, and its childish.

Clan Member Conduct
How to respect others (make your Legion of Paragons life a lot better). Treating people with respect makes your world a nicer place to live in, whether it's at home, at school, or in oblivion!. It's easy, all you have to do is treat people the way you like to have them treat you.

Runescape is made up of many different cultures, languages, races, and backgrounds. That kind of variety can make all our lives a lot more fun and interesting, but only if we get along with each other. To do that we have to respect each other. In addition to the list above, here are some ways we can respect people who are different from us. • Try to learn something from the other person. • Never stereotype people. • Show interest and appreciation for other people's cultures and backgrounds. • Don't go along with prejudices and racist attitudes.

The clans recruiting department does more than just bringing new recruits in the clan. Our recruiting team works together in developing strategies to enhance recruiting procedures and policies. The department also hires members of its team from the clans general member population. Meaning, if you just came into the clan, don't expect that because you were a Recruiting Super Hero for your last clan that you will automatically be given a position on the recruiting staff for our clan.

Our clans recruiting policy and procedures may in many ways be similar to that of other clans, but there are some differences. The goal in the end for all clans in recruiting are the same, to obtain new members in the clan. But the expectations of these new members difer from clan to clan, and the process by which they get accepted also difers from clan to clan. This means even though you did recruit in a previous clan, our procedures and policies are certainly different.

Currently, all members ranked Sergeant and above may invite new members to the clan. However, once the recruiting department is fully staffed, Lieutenants and above will be the only ones able to invite. The long term goal is that Sergeants will assist in obtaining recruits but will need to have a Recruiter, Recruiting Leader, Recruiting Officer or the Director of Recruiting present to get the new recruit invited.

On our Runescape Thread page 1 post 9 is the procedure in which to recruit new members. The following post (Post 10) you will find the clans recruit application. The new recruit must copy this application into a reply and answer the questions.

NOTE: The new recruit would need to ensure they are logged into the page (Located at the top far roght Option Tab) to unlock the reply option in the forum.

Training
Our Training department has 2 objectives. Clan member training and game orientation traing. Because the game is meant for each player to set their own objectives and goal with their character, we are not here to train players in everyday skilling, combat, questing or task achievements. One of the hardest things for some players to understand is this... You may have been playing runescape since the first day it was released, and you may have led several clans af collosal sizes. But the one thing you have not done in your entire runescape experience is serve as a member of Legion Of Paragons. Our Clan Law, Policies, Procedures, and Guidelines my be similar in some respect but are quite different over all. So do not take offense to clan member training.

Clan Member Training
This phase of training consists of training members in the clans operations and ways of doing things. Like in every school you get an education, each school has their own policies specific to that school though. In the same, it is so with clans in runescape.

Game Orientation Training
From time to time, we will get a member recruited to our clan thats very new to runescape. Meaning theyve just started playing the game for the first time in their life. This program is meant to give that player guidance and help to get familiar with the world of runescape and all it has to offer.

General Info
Our clan has several openings spanning from a clan secretary position on down. Our clan at current is just over 70 members. Our goal is over is to achieve 400 active members. This means in addition to current openings, there will be many new positions coming available as the clan grows in size.

How we determine promotions
The clan leader and his staff reviews the following to determine a members advancement and promotion:


 * Review of a members posts on the thread.


 * Reviews if the member has recruited any new recruits. (verified by the thread)


 * Reviews the members citadel participation. (verified by the thread)
 * Reviews members involvement in clan events. (verified by the thread)
 * Reviews the member donation record. (verified by the thread)

Word of advise
Basically its a real easy process. If you are a person that don't, wont, or refuses to post on our threads, you will not get anywhere ahead in rank in our clan. If you wish to advance in rank, or occupy a position on the clans staff, the first step is to be active in the areas listed above. Just participating by its self is not going to get you moving up in the clan. Using the threads often is the key. Good Luck...

Clan Uniform
The Clans Uniform is currently in process of being legistlated.

Court Staff

 * Supreme Justice - Chivoso
 * Justice - OPEN
 * Justice - OPEN
 * Court Clerk - OPEN

Diplomatic Immunity
Members with clan diplomatic immunity from the clan court are:
 * Clan Leader
 * Co-Leader
 * Clan Secretary

General
The Clan Court is exactly what it says it is. It's sole purpose in life is to judge those members accused of violating Clan Rules, Policies, Guidelines, and Procedures. The court is also in process of being built. As the court needs member that possesses certain qualities, it is slow coming locating proper candidates.

The Courts in session dates will be dictated by case load. All court cases will be scheduled by the Supreme Justice and placed on the thread for those who need to attend.

Currently all matters for court hearings are being determined by the clan leader until the court can get established.

Council Staff

 * High Council - General JULK
 * Council - icpfan123
 * Council - OPEN
 * Council - OPEN
 * Council - OPEN

General
The clan council should meet once every week to discuss matters concerning the clan as a whole. Each Rule, Policy, Procedure, or Guideline proposed to be adopted thats passed vote in the council is not automatically placed on record with the clan. It must continue up to the clan leader. The adoption then gets voted upon by the clan leaders' cabinet (Co-Leaders and Secretaries). If it passes vote again, it goes to the clan leader for final review of approval. If it fails vote, it goes back to the council to make adjustments. Once the clan leaders final review passes, it is placed on record with the clan.

Considerations

 * 1) Rules of Runescape by Jagex.
 * 2) Clan Structured Objective in Purpose.
 * 3) Clan Members as a whole, and not particularly beneficial to one member.
 * 4) Easily understandable by all members with keeping in mind of the clan having some very young members.
 * 5) Ensures that new adoption does not conflict with any other form of Rule, Guideline, Procedure, Policy or Process. If it does, and is important enough, looking at the possibility of changing the effected areas may be inevitable.

General
For many runescape clans, alliances with other clans are a way of life. A clan will designate a member of their clan to represent that clan as an ambassador to other allied clans. This may be a leader, or designated member of the clans high staff.

Basic Guidelines
Each alliance normally has an agreement between the two clans' leaders. These may include but arnt limeted to the following:
 * Neither clan will knowingly recruit or accept a recruit from the other clan. Each clan must take all step available to ensure this does not happen.
 * Neither clan will wage hostilities against the other except for fun clan competitions arranged by each clans events staff and leaders.
 * In the event that either clan enters into enemy status with one of the others allied clans, the neutral clan may remain neutral and free of coersion.
 * Each clan must list the other clan on their allied clans list on their forum thread.

Debate
We have had some challenge our leadership staff on a program that we offer our members. This program is the "Clan Bank". We have came under fire by new members about our bank numerous times in the past. Please note, in everycase, either they hadn't read about the clan bank to learn exactly what it is and what its functionable purpose is, or they had read it with such optomism that theyre comprehension level as theyre reading on it experiences tunnel vision. Some have claimed that the clan is scamming their own members with this program. Some offer the idea that the clan is taking advantage for their own characters through the clan bank. Understanding the bank, how it's structured, how its process works, what procedures it takes to ensure security, what guidlines it performs to maintain fairness, policies that are in motion guarenteeing consistancy and rules that keeps its order, a person would not be challenging the clans bank.

Facts

 * 1) Nowhere in the Rules of Runescape or within its Code of Conduct does it indicate that the clan is in violation of either of the two by introducing a clan bank in the clan.
 * 2) The clan bank is 100% voluntary. Do not confuse the Event Policy #2, &amp; #3 that states all resources or drops from clan events must be deposited to the clans bank to be a controdiction of this rule. Events are not mandatory for clan membership.
 * 3) The clan bank is its own account. Therefore its banks contents are kept seperate from anyone elses bank including the clan leader. This account is maintained by 19SIRE71 Clan Leader and is managed by Maxie 73 Clan Co-Leader.

===Jackpot Formula

===

Total Weeks Lottery Revenue / 4 = Jackpot Amount

Example:

Lets say there was 20 drawing rights purchased this drawing week.

20 X 50,000 = 1,000,000 / 4 = 250,000

This weeks jackpot winnings would be 250,000. That's 5 times the money spent by any one player.

I got an e-mail offering me to be a P-Mod?
A growing number of hijackers are trying to use fake e-mails to gain access to your account. This is a problem for all online services, from other MMOs to online banking.

You need to be just as careful with e-mails from Jagex that you weren't expecting to receive as you would with ones for your bank account or anything else. These e-mails will either forward you onto a phishing site as mentioned above, or give your computer a virus. Either way you want to avoid them. For more information on phishing e-mails look on our e-mail phishing thread here
 * If the e-mail provides any links to websites make sure they are secure Jagex sites. The text of the website is not always the site you will be sent too, hover over the link and it will show you the real site address.
 * All Jagex links to play the game are http://www.runescape.com/game.ws?j=1. If the link does not go to this site, or any of Jagex's secure sites, do not use it.
 * 1) If you do click a link, make sure the website you are taken to follows the same security procedures as Phishing Websites above. If it's not Jagex secure with an SSL certificate or links to http://www.runescape.com/game.ws?j=1, don't use it

Someone asked me for my password in-game?

 * The easiest way to obtain a password is to simply ask the owner. You'd think people wouldn't fall for such an obvious trick, but you'd be surprised.
 * The most common way a hijacker will ask for account details in-game is by impersonating a member of Jagex staff. They concoct a reason as to why they need you account information, most often regarding your account being banned, free gold, or even a P-Mod application. There are some very simple things to remember to avoid such tricks.

'''JAGEX WILL NEVER ASK FOR YOU PASSWORD, EVER!!! ANYONE WHO DOES ASK FOR IT IS A HIJACKER.

IF YOU DON'T SEE A GOLD CROWN, IT'S NOT JAGEX!!! NO EXCEPTION.

IF JAGEX EVER WANTED TO GIVE YOU ANYTHING, THEY WOULD CONTACT YOU VIA THE INBOX MESSAGING SYSTEM, NEVER IN-GAME. ALL P-MOD APPLICATIONS GO THROUGH THE INBOX.''' You can't say your password in-game for a good reason. If anyone asks for it, or implies you get free stuff for saying it they're trying to scam you.

Citadel Basics
====General: ====

To get to your citadel, you can teleport from the large portal in the Clan Camp. When in a Clan Citadel, you may access a map on the Citadel Interface (replacing the worldmap button on your game screen). Here, you can click on key teleport ('T') points on this Citadel map to teleport around the Citadel.

If you are a member of a clan who has already set up their own Citadel, simply travel through the portal in the Clan Camp, by Avalani, to visit it! Free players do not have access to the Clan Citadel, even if they are a member of a clan with a Citadel.

If at any point the Clan drops below 4 clanmates the Citadel will become inaccessible, until such time that the Clan recovers their clanmates. The Citadel will continue to tick along as usual – paying upkeep until all resources are used up. When resources run out then the Citadel will degrade as usual.

====Probation: ====

Before a clanmate counts towards the size of a clan and is able to contribute towards resource production, they must pass a probationary period of at least one week. Probation status is checked on logging into the Citadel after a build tick, hence it may be up to thirteen days before a member may contribute to resource gathering dependent on join date.

The exceptions are:
All members of the Clan who join before the Citadel is created are automatically full clanmates and will not need to go through probation.

All members who join within a month of the release of Clans are automatically full clanmates and will not need to go through probation.

Probationers who are members can still visit their Clan's Citadel and engage in all other activities unless those within the Clan, with permission to do so, have specified otherwise.

====Maintaining and Improving Your Citadel: ==== A Clan Citadel is a great place to meet, fight and gather, but it is a commitment for you and your other clanmates. As was mentioned previously, you have to ensure that you have the required number of clanmates at all times. Also, each Citadel comes with a weekly upkeep cost, and that cost must be satisfied each week. The upkeep is not paid in gold; instead, the upkeep cost for a Citadel is paid by working at skill plots in your Citadel, producing enough stone, wood, food and other materials to keep your Citadel well-maintained. If you cannot manage to meet the upkeep costs, you run the risk of dilapidation your Citadel or the structures within it.

For more information on upgrading, downgrading and resource costs, click here.

Skill plots are built using the citadel interface, and can be found within the Citadel. Work on these plots to generate resources that are automatically contributed towards the Clan's resource pool. There are no skill requirements or item requirements to work at these skill plots.

If you manage to keep your Clan maintained well, and have a healthy number of clanmates in your clan, you may find that you are able to increase the tier of your Citadel. There are seven tiers in total, and each tier offers more skill plot options, layout options and customization options.

Avalani
Avalani has worked tirelessly to get the portal from the Clan Camp to function. It is only right that she want to explore her discovery. She has made notes about her discoveries, and can give you all of the information you need including what role an admin plays in the Citadel and what the individual Citadel features are. She has stored this information in a handbook - basic or advanced version - and she will give you this if you ask for it. Avalani can also tell you what she knows about the history of these floating islands.

Hercule Netis, aka The Artisan
Hercule Netis is who you speak to about changing the appearance of your Citadel. Hercule Netis is a gifted artisan, skilled in his craft - he can even multi-task! He can tell you how to customize your Citadel, and will craft your choices himself. He can craft three items at a time. Some smaller items - such as pot plants, flags, chairs or windows - are considered 'blanket' items. That means that multiple instances of that item will appear across the Citadel when built, and they will all look the same (they cannot be made to look different from each other). Larger items, such as statues, are changed individually. Hercule can reduce your choices to a more basic state; however, he will need to be given the resources to build this version. He can't recycle the materials used to build the original item, and you will not get any resources back if you remove a customisation feature.

Battlemaster
The Battlemaster will give you access to the battlefield editor, where you can create and design your own combat and minigame scenarios. He will also help you to organise battles on the battlefield (if you have permission to do so from your Clan leader). He can give you information on the Battlefield itself too.

Quartermaster
The Quartermaster is a vital part of your Citadel. He keeps track of all the upgrades, downgrades, resources and other tasks that your clanmates have set up to be performed around the Citadel. This information is also available in your citadel interface. The Quartermaster can also change the build tick of your Citadel, so you can decide on the time that all upgrades, downgrades, upkeeps and building occur. The Quartermaster also keeps hold of the special Clan rings, given to you if you contribute enough to the upkeep of your Clan Citadel.

Master Guard
The Master Guard is head of Citadel Security. Through him, you can prevent access to your keep, the battlefield, or your Citadel grounds (via the main gate). You can also get a clan cape from the Master Guard.

General

 * Every week, each Citadel has a build tick. This is set to happen exactly a week from the time that the Clan Citadel was first created, and can be moved back by clan owners and deputy owners by a maximum of once per week, at the cost of one week's upkeep.
 * The build tick will still occur even if there are not enough clanmates logged in to keep the Citadel in an accessible form.
 * During this build tick, everyone is removed from the Clan Citadel with a three-minute warning. This warning allows people to pick up any dropped items; however, during this time, no one is permitted to enter the Citadel.
 * Once this time has elapsed and everyone in the Citadel has been removed, the build process will be carried out and any resources spent will be debited from the clan's resource pool. The build process is as follows:
 * 1) First, any downgrade jobs which have been queued are executed, lowering the tier, dilapidation or destroying the relevant buildings.
 * 2) Second, any upkeep is paid to the fullest extent it may be, in order of priority in the job list.
 * 3) Third, if all upkeep has been paid, listed upgrade jobs are carried out in order of priority on the job list. This includes the full payment or partial payment of buildings, custom (unique) hot spots and blanket customizations.
 * Any unspent resource is subject to being spoiled after the build tick and removed from the clan's resource pool. Some unspent resources can be carried over from one week to the next. The amount carried across depends on the tier of your storehouse (see storehouse section).

UPKEEP

 * All buildings have upkeep costs. These come out of your resource pool on the build tick. People with the correct construction permission can choose the order in which these get paid. Upkeep must be paid in full before any of the related resources can go towards building or customization features.


 * Failing to pay the upkeep cost for a building will lead to it first becoming dilapidated, and then losing a tier in a following build tick - if a Citadel loses a tier, all other buildings present are capped to the level of the Citadel.


 * Tier 1 buildings will never be demolished, however; instead, they will incur arrears up to 2 times their upkeep cost.

CITADEL
There are a couple of requirements before you can upgrade your Citadel to a latter tier. A certain number of non-probationary clanmates (players who are members and who you have allowed access to your Citadel) must visit the Citadel in a given week: If a clan drops below the number of required members, they are granted a small amount of leeway at each tier. With fewer visitors than this leeway, admins will be warned in an interface that their clan is too small and that they should start recruiting.

If your clan drops below the required number of clanmates who have visited the Citadel on a given week, on the build tick all buildings will automatically be dilapidated. The buildings will still require upkeep, however. This dilapidation effect is not cumulative, so two degradation effects will not 'stack' on top of each other, causing something to be doubly dilapidated. If, on the next build tick, your clan does not have enough clanmates and your buildings are all dilapidated, everything will be downgraded a tier.

General

 * If a clan fails to pay their upkeep, their buildings will start to dilapidate and features will become locked off.


 * If, on the build tick, a building's upkeep is not paid in full, the building becomes dilapidated. Any resources that would have been contributed to the upkeep will not be lost if the upkeep is not paid in full.


 * Tier 1 buildings will not be demolished upon being downgraded, but they will accrue a debt equal to twice the upkeep cost of that building.
 * The Citadel can also go into a state of degradation if your clan drops beneath the Citadel's required number of full clanmates. If the number drops sufficiently below this number on the build tick, all buildings will automatically be dilapidated, and will still require upkeep. This won't stack with other degradation effects (so if a building is already going to dilapidate they won't be dilapidated twice – see build tick for more information). If, on the next build tick, your clan still doesn't have enough members in their clan count, everything (except the walls) will be downgraded a level.

"Citadel"
The walls will become a dingy colour and all clan colours will be removed from it. All custom features in the Citadel's grounds will become dilapidated.

"Skillplots"
The skill plot will function like the tier below in terms of productivity.

"Clan ring"
The clan ring will not work if any buildings are dilapidated.

Storehouse

 * The storehouse affects two things: your resource cap, and how many surplus resources can be carried over from one week to the next. As your storehouse goes up a tier, the resource cap and the number of resources carried over each week also increases.

Individual Resource Caps

 * Each individual has a resource cap. This is to limit the amount of work any one individual can do for their clan, so that the load is spread across all clanmates. You can see the number of resources you have contributed in a given week on your side interface (pictured on the right), alongside your resource cap.


 * Across the bottom of the same interface, you will see the skilling plots that your citadel has access to. Clicking on these will show you how many resources your clan has gathered from that plot and how much you have contributed to that number. The interface also shows the tier of the skilling plot that you have selected.

The effect that the storehouse tier has on resource caps can be seen below:
 * Your resource cap applies to the total number of resources, rather than any specific resource. So, you could use up your whole cap on one resource (e.g. making charcoal). You are limited to the amount of minions you generate at a skilling plot, however; you can only spend one-tenth of your resource cap on minions.

Resource Spoiling
Every resource that isn't spent in one build tick will spoil, and will be removed from the resource pool. This is to stop large clans being able to shoot through the lower tiers by stockpiling up massive amounts of resource and then sitting back and doing nothing. It brings clans back each week – it also encourages clans to spend their resource pool and not just sit on it.

The amount that can be carried across each week is dependent on the tier of the clan's storehouse: The percentage and cap per resource applies to the following finished resources: timber, stone, cloth and rations. Minions, charcoal, ore and precious ore do not get carried across from one build tick to another. Bars and precious bars are subject to a cap that is 3x smaller of any other finished resource, and the percentage that is kept is also 3x smaller. So, a tier 7 storehouse will only be able to carry across a maximum of 1000 bars.

Note that these caps are per resource; so, at tier 7, you could carry across a maximum of 3000 timber, 3000 stone, 1000 bars, 1000 precious bars, 3000 cloth and 3000 rations. All minions, charcoal, ore and precious ore would spoil.

You can view the number of resources that will be taken across from one week to the next on your storehouse interface, accessed via your side interface.
