Balloons are produced by the trees which are what your braves train into after entering the Boat House. Balloons take up one follower in your population tally and also cost more mana than fifty three volcanoes being charged at once. Balloons are strong enough to kill sixty twelve million and three braves in one move, but are vulnerable to just one spy. Balloons are effective when you're wanting to travel long distances because those pesky airline companies are charging an extra $75 per seat.

Other Ways to Create a Balloon

Blow into it you spastic.
