The tether is an industrial building used for delivery purposes.
Description[]
Tethers are used as a means of transportation for heavy resources. The tether houses a durable cattle, which takes turns between a quarry/iron mine (depending on the game) and the stockpile to ferry their load. These harmless animals can also be killed by enemies, losing their delivery upon death.
Stone is used by most fortifications, while iron is required for advanced weaponry and armour.
Information[]
- "Oxen are required to lug stone from quarry to your stockpile."

The ox tether is used for stone delivery. It is very cheap to build, yet essential to ferry stone to the stockpile, which can be used then for constructions and siting defensive buildings.
A goadsmen is needed to operate this building, who leads the ox to its destination and loads it with stone blocks from the quarry. The ox will start stone delivery when 8 blocks are loaded.
It is imperative to build multiple tethers in order to ensure constant delivery so that the quarry's stockpile will not get full.
The ox tether is used for stone and iron delivery. It houses an ox, which requires a handler to operate. They together seek out a quarry or iron mine and deliver their load to the stockpile.
An ox can collect a maximum of 16 stone blocks/8 iron bars, yielding 16 stone/8 iron with a full load.
If the handler is killed, the ox follows him to his dying spot, then disappears with its entire cargo.
The ox tether is used for stone and iron delivery. It houses an ox, which automatically seeks out a quarry or iron mine without the need of a handler.
An ox can collect a maximum of 16 stone blocks/8 iron bars, yielding 32 stone/8 iron with a full load.
By default, the ox automatically visits the nearest iron mine or stone quarry for materials, gets them loaded and then brings them to the stockpile. This can be overridden by a rally point, which makes the ox visit the nearest mining facility instead.
The buffalo tether is used for stone and iron delivery. It houses a buffalo, which automatically seeks out a quarry or iron mine without the need of a handler.
An ox can collect a maximum of 16 stone blocks/4 iron bars, yielding 32 stone/4 iron with a full load.
Up to three tethers can be built per mine, providing ample loading opportunities even over larger distances.
