Costs
Stone House
Stone houses require less firewood than wooden houses and also provide more warmth, making them better homes in the long run. However, building them uses up the loose rock that is spread over the map more quickly. After the loose stone is gone, more rock can only be attained through trade or more dangerous rock quarries that require a large workforce.[2]
Because stone houses use less firewood than wooden houses and also provide more warmth, they allow the expansion of the town without the need to produce even more firewood.[3]
Stone houses can be placed as an alternative to wooden homes.
