Underwhelming grand prize to say the least. Might be the weakest one of all time.
Mana equal to 1.5 mana huts =7.5sq (10sq of sawmills)
T4 equal to 1.2h in factory = 3.25sq
pop equal to 0.5 res = 8.25sq
-----------------
19 squares of value and it takes up 18 squares in a city. Sure, I didn't put a value in the culture, but you can't MM an owl either.
woohoo?
*******************************
Just for comparison, a fully evolved witch hut:
Heavey ranged equal to 7.7 Grounds of the orc strategists =69sq
Orcs equal to 3.25 orc nests =29.25sq
pop equal to 0.35 res = 5.75sq
plus 3 KP per day
------------------------------
104 squares of value in 18sq.
I would rather have a stage 1 witch hut than a stage 10 owl.
