## ORC Assignment

* ORCs must be assigned to land (NFTs) to generate tokens
* Unassigned ORCs do not generate tokens
* ORCs can only be assigned to one land at a time
* Assignment can be changed at any time
* On Camp level 1, a maximum of 10 ORCs can be assigned to the land
* Players can upgrade Camp to level 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 to increase the maximum number of ORCs that can be assigned to the land

## ORC Farming Mechanics

* Player Select a Land to assign ORCs
* ORC will start Walking to the Land and the distance determine the time it takes based on distance between the Camp and the Land
* Once the ORC arrives at the Land, he will start to work and mine gold , The ORC will mine for 6 hours
* When the ORC finish the mining, he will return to the Camp and the player will receive the gold , The distance also determine the time it takes for the ORC to return to the Camp
* When the ORC arrive in the camp, the amount of gold he will receive gonna be cauculated.
* The ORC will begin the rest process during 6 hours and can't be used until the rest is finished.
* If the player have more orcs available, he can assign them to mine available lands and start the same process again.
* The player can only assign 1 group of ORCs to mine at a time.
