Learn about Anno 1404 Decorative Buildings (costing nothing) and Resource Generators, including placement tips for faster harvesting.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Select the Decorative Building option by clicking the second Wiimote on an empty space on the map.
  2. 2
    Place the building.
Tips
  • Decorative Buildings have no upkeep cost.
  • They are purely cosmetic and will be automatically built over if you choose to construct another building in their place.

Resource Generators, with the exception of mines, require roads to operate. Their efficiency is increased the closer they are built to the marketplace, allowing for faster harvesting of their goods. These generators also benefit from being constructed on islands that support large settlements, as this facilitates better road networks.

Tips
  • Ensure all resource generators (except mines) are connected by roads.
  • Place resource generators as close to your marketplace as possible for optimal harvesting speed.
  • Building resource generators on islands with large settlement potential can improve road efficiency.
