Red and Blue boxes on the Empire side

from Elemental Forums

Ok, I played my first game just a few minutes ago and I came away with 2 unanswered questions...

First, on the Empire side of the screen, my communities have a series of red and blue boxes next to them.  I am guessing red is bad (a shortage of some type) while blue is good (a surplus of some sort, perhaps).  Anyhow, what do they represent? 

I also never got around to casting a strategic spell, largely because I was low on mana.  That aside, it was not clear to me how I would have casted a strategic spell.  How do you do that?

Thanks!

I'm not quite sure what you mean by the Empire side of the screen, but if you're talking about the bars at the bottom, red represents arcane research (spells), and blue represents tech research (technologies).

 

To cast a strategic spell, select someone with essence (like your sovereign) and click on square button (spellbook) next to their mana. Then choose the spell and cast.

 

 

Edit: Oh, and if you're talking about the empire tree where it shows your units/cities. Each red dot represents a unit, and each blue dot represents a building.

Thank for the answers!  Your EDIT response was exactly what I was looking for - now I can crash out :)
