What these recorded building prices cover

Use this page to recognize construction offers and compare the kind of upgrade being shown. The table contains 22 recorded offers: the same building can appear once as an initial build and again as an upgrade. It is a dated reference rather than a complete building inventory or a tested fastest build order.

The visible action matters as much as the price. BUILD, UPGRADE, NEXT TIER and a locked Construction card describe different states. Abbreviated prices are kept as displayed instead of being expanded into supposedly exact transaction amounts. Missing effects and HQ requirements remain unfilled.

Search the recorded building and upgrade offers

Filter by offer type to compare like with like. A locked quote tells you what that menu displayed while the item was unavailable; it does not establish a completed purchase. The video publication date beside each row helps distinguish these older observations from your current game session.

HQ upgrades: three separate next-tier offers

The Field HQ view shows a $2,500 next-Tier-2 offer with +4/s base income. Separate HQ Building and Fortified HQ views show $60.0K toward Tier 3 with +10/s, and $1.00M toward Tier 4 with +24/s. These are individual offers, so the three prices should not be read as cumulative costs.

The Tier 4 view has insufficient Cash for that offer. It therefore supports the displayed quote, not a successful purchase. NEXT TIER identifies the HQ upgrade destination; it is different from a Needs HQ gate on another building. A Tier 5 price and its income effect are not established in this reference.

Income: per second, per stroke and percentages

The tutorial Mini Rig has a $90 build offer and a +3/s built prompt. Other recorded Mini Rig offers show $270 with +5/s and $470 with +7/s. A separate $160 quote is visible, but its income is not established here. These observations do not reconstruct every rig in sequence or assign unique rig numbers by price.

Three effects that should not be treated as the same income unit
Recorded offerEffect shownHow to read it
Supply Depot · $400 build+3/s base incomeA displayed income increment; a separate order-completion reward is not another income increment.
Hand Pump · $150 build$4.50 per stroke in that stateThe built prompt says the amount grows with the base. This is not $4.50 per second or a permanent per-stroke rate.
Generators · $1,200 build+10% base incomeA percentage effect, not a flat Cash-per-second amount. Multiplier stacking is not established here.

Generators is the name on the recorded ground sign. Its equivalence to other menu labels has not been established, so those names are not combined into one price row. A reliable comparison needs both the displayed effect and the state in which it was offered.

Troop Tent and Boat Dock: read the action first

The recorded $300 Troop Tent build is followed by an initial squad-of-6 prompt. A different Construction view shows an UPGRADE quote of $20.0K, a LEVEL 1/3 panel and an offer describing 8 infantry with 24-second reinforcements. That view does not establish the full before-and-after level transition, so this reference does not label it a proven level-1-to-2 purchase.

Boat Dock is explicitly shown as NOT BUILT with a BUILD price of $25.0K. Its offer describes one boat bay and 35-second reinforcements. No HQ gate is filled in for that row because it was not established in the recorded view. A building offer is also separate from the price or requirements of each recruitable unit.

Locked Construction quotes and HQ requirements

Oil Rig 12 is listed at $37.0K with Needs HQ 3. Oil Rigs 13–16 show Needs HQ 4, with quotes of $64.0K, $110K, $190K and $330K respectively. Their income effects were not established in the recorded menu views, so the table does not estimate them from prices or neighbouring rigs.

The same Construction segment shows Armour Depot at $90.0K and Heavy Garage at $280K, both needing HQ 3. Munitions Factory shows $600K and Naval Yard $1.80M, both needing HQ 4. These locked listings establish menu quotes and gates; they do not establish income, a successful purchase, or every unit unlocked by the facility.

Use your current panel to plan the next purchase

  1. Match the building name and action: initial build, upgrade, next HQ tier or locked listing.
  2. Check the live Cash price, level and Needs HQ text before treating an older quote as your target.
  3. Keep flat income, percentage bonuses and manual pumping separate. Use your own observed income rate for a time-to-target estimate.

For a budget estimate, enter your current Cash, target cost and observed Cash-per-second rate in the calculator. It estimates time from your inputs; it does not select a best upgrade or predict unverified income changes. If your panel differs from this dated reference, use the panel for the purchase.

Frequently asked questions

Are these the current Update 3 building prices?

No. This is a limited reference from videos published October 14–16, 2026, before the observed Update 3 platform timestamp. The publication dates do not prove recording dates or the current version; use your live purchase panel.

How much does upgrading HQ cost?

Separate recorded offers show $2,500 for next Tier 2, $60.0K for next Tier 3 and $1.00M for next Tier 4. These are dated individual quotes, not cumulative totals or a complete HQ upgrade path.

Why does Troop Tent have two different prices?

The $300 observation is an initial BUILD offer. The $20.0K observation is an UPGRADE quote on a LEVEL 1/3 panel. They describe different actions rather than competing prices for the same initial purchase.

Does Hand Pump give $4.50 per second?

The recorded built prompt describes $4.50 per stroke in that state and says the amount increases as the base grows. It does not establish $4.50 per second or a permanent fixed pumping rate.

What does a blank HQ requirement mean?

A dash means that this reference has not established the requirement. It does not prove that the building has no HQ gate. Check the current Construction panel.
