What is the max Number of workers I can have>?

Also, is there a place where I can read all the ins and outs of this game like a rules page?

1000 is max workers although unless you donate you wont get that high

and as for the second part of your question you may want to apply for a mentor

and or read the player made guides

You can actually go past the 1000 limit.

If you have say, 990 workers, and in 24 ticks, you still make +30~50 workers, it'll add that to the 990, then it'll be capped at. Or you may continue to get workers from wreckages.

Crystal Pool adds towards worker growth, with conquers, etc. ^^ You may actually get past 1k without donation

Um, thank you for the answers and the time you invested. I need some clairification though please.

Once upon a time, I enjoyed BD quite a lot.

Since then, things seem to have changed. I remember that your # of workers was tied somehow to your outposts, but for the life of me I cant remember how. Im not even sure thats still relevant. Is it?

OPs slow down your worker growth(amount of workers every so many ticks)

for example on Fantasy you go to Castle Tab then Management and on the far right towards the bottom it'd say Outpost Keep so it barley slows down the growth

i think you may be referring to settlements

the worker cap used to be 500 with you colony and an additional 200 for each settlement up to 1000 but they have removed settlements all together so this no longer applies
