Empire Divided (minor reference)

Changes due to the Patch

The resource buildings have been changed with the Politics and Power Patch. Dye gives +6 public order at tier IV, Wine gives +4 public order and Lead gives +4 Sanitation. In other words at large empire sizes Public Order and Squalor become irrelevant.

Banditry

The more provinces you have, the worse it gets. Continous effect is a reduction in food a province exports; the max is -12. Note this is a flat penalty, not percentage. The random events cause either 1) Public Order penalty 2) No food exported by province or 3) No income produced by province.

The grey line provides a building option that gives -20 banditry. For 4 region provinces that are focused on food or income, you will want to provide armies (-10 banditry; number of units irrelevant) so they can use their slots productively.

Cults

There are 4 options. There is the baseline cult building which provides 2 public order, growth and sanitation with no downsides. All others provide their own culture which decreases public order.

There is the Christian line which provides... unit replenishment. In other words it is almost useless.

Mithric tier 4 provides food, sanitation, growth and +30% culture wealth at the cost of -30% industry wealth; it has a special event where you gain 15% more subsistence and culture wealth for 2 turns. Build these in 4 region provinces focused on culture.

Manchian tier 4 provides sanitation and 15% research speed at the cost of increasing unit recruitment cost: it has a special event where you gain 50% research speed for 2 turns. Build them in your 2 and 3 region provinces.

Tech

Manchianism means that you do not need to rush research buildings anymore; they provide only minor benefit over just spamming cult buildings. The big question is which civil techs you will be focusing on. The tier unlock bonuses encourage specific builds.

I 30% movement
II 30% morale
III +3 experience ranks
IV 30% tax rate
