Gold

Gold is one of the six resources in Cossacks 3.

Background
Gold is required to make upgrades, construct and maintain elite troops and high-tech arms as well as to hire mercenaries.

Procurement
Iron, coal and gold are mined at deposits, identified by a large icon over the deposit (a fissure in the ground). You need to build a mine to excavate it. Mines can also be upgraded to increase their output � useful, as only five workers can be assigned per mine.

Strategies
Second most important resource in the game, due to its universal usefulness. Used for buildings, unit training, upgrades, maintenance, everything. Take care of it after food.
