I have died and tried again and I can't seem to build a blacksmith, I thought money was a issue but even when I have enough it doen't let me build. So I thought maybe tech was a issue, however it still will not let me build a blacksmith. So I have come to the conclusion that I may be doing something wrong. If this is the case let me know.

Hi Serina,
as far as I know there should be no tech requirements to build a blacksmith.
All you need is enough wood, stone and some gold.
Are you sure you had enough wood and stone as you tried to build it? As soon as you can see the blacksmith at the construction screen you should be able to build it (theoretical, so all tech conditions are complied) and only wood/stone and gold are nessessary now (some buildings require a certain level of polulation in addition to the tech-level but afaik the blacksmith is not one of them)
Ofcourse, thats only true as long as there was no game-update changing this point, long time since I started myself.
But some hint: even if you are able to build the blacksmith, you have to calculate. Its very expensive, not only in construction but mainly in maintenance (well expensive for a very beginner low on taxes) . So sometimes its wiser to wait some days till taxes are high enough to be able to afford it long term.
And please have an eye on your wood and stone - you will only be able to get new stone and wood after you build a marketplace (and ofcourse, do not forget to give grain - major reason for dying realms - sad but true)
Hope this could help you - I guess you had not enough wood or stone in the past to build the blacksmith, if thats not the reason, please call again.
And should there be some changes since I started myself, I hope someone else can explain the new stats.
Cheers
Alexander

Well thank you, however I do have enough wood and stone and such it just will not allow me to build one. I do know that about the grain. I can build anything else on the page, just not the blacksmith. I was under the impression that to have a market you had to have a blacksmith. Anyway I don't know what to do eventually I am going to need a blacksmith. I was trying to build one because I thought that is how you got a market. Thank you for your advice. I will look again and see but as far as I am able to see there is the right amount of things for it. It just refuses to build one for me.lol maybe your right and I need to wait.

A market (market place) requires only Technics level 1, and 2500 people in your town. If you have 1 town, it will have half of the population of your
country. Therefore, with 1 town you will need a
country population of 5000, which will mean you have 2500 in your town.
You can check your country population in the 'reports' screen.
All hail, Hallecturus!
