Rules:Buildings
Consider this handy chart that illustrates both upgrades and discounts.
Buildings
You improve settlements by constructing buildings, which provide bonuses to the kingdom in general and the settlement in particular. Some buildings also intersect with the Army rules, notably with fortifications and reserve armies.
Demolition: If a lot has a building, you can clear it for new construction. Doing so costs 1 BP. You may construct a building on a lot the same turn you demolish the old building there. You do not regain BP for a demolished building (but see Rebuilding, below).
Destroyed Lots: If an event or a pillaging army destroys 1 or more lots, the devastation causes Unrest to increase by 1 per lot destroyed.
Rebuilding: If you rebuild the same type of building on a destroyed lot, the cost is halved, as you can reuse some of the materials for the same purpose. If you rebuild a different type of building on that lot, reduce the cost of the new building by 1/4 the cost of the old building (minimum 1 BP). If you build smaller buildings on top of a site that held a multi-lot building, split the discount evenly over the new buildings. For example, if you demolish an Academy and construct a Mansion and a Luxury Store on top of those lots, each building gets a 6 BP discount (1/4 of 52 BP is 13, divided evenly between the two).
Overcrowding: In addition to the limitations that some buildings have on the number of a particular type of building there can be in a particular settlement, there is an innate limit to the number of a particular building that a given settlement can reasonably accommodate. In game terms this simply means that any specific building beyond the first that is built in a settlement, except for houses, tenements and parks, costs a number of build points equal to it's base cost times the number that now appear in that settlement (1x for the first, 2x for the second, 3x for the third etc.). Discounts are applied as normal (thus x0.5, x1, x1.5 etc.)
Building Descriptions
Buildings are described in the following format.
Building Name: The type of buildings contained in this lot. In most cases, each lot represents numerous buildings of that type, rather than a single edifice.
Cost: The cost in BP to construct the building.
Lots: How many lots the building fills.
Primary: Building modifiers to Economy, Loyalty, and Stability stack, affect your entire kingdom, and are ongoing from turn to turn. Modifiers to Unrest occur once when the building is completed.
Discount: Some buildings halve the cost of constructing a related type of building in the same settlement. This cost reduction applies only to the first constructed building of the types listed in this line. For example, an Academy halves the cost of your next Library in that settlement; if you build a second Library in that settlement, you pay the normal cost for it (But see overcrowding, above). If 2 buildings give the same discount, only one discount applies per new building, but you may construct 2 buildings at the discounted cost. For example, Market and Theater both halve the cost of an Inn; if your settlement has a Market and a Theater, you may construct 2 Inns at half cost (the Market discounts one, and the Theater discounts the other).
Limit: This lists limitations on the number of buildings of this type, special requirements for adjacent buildings, or prohibitions against certain buildings being adjacent.
For most buildings, you can construct as many of them as you want in a settlement, but some are limited in the number that can be built per settlement or district. For example, you can only construct 1 Arena per settlement.
Some buildings require that you construct them adjacent to at least 1 or 2 of a specific kind of building or feature of the settlement. For example, a Shop or Tavern must be adjacent to a House or Mansion. The required adjacent building can only count toward 1 building that requires it. For example, if you have a House and a Shop, that House can't be used to meet the requirement for another Shop or a Tavern; you have to construct a new House and use it to meet the requirement of the new Shop or Tavern.
Some buildings cannot be adjacent to certain buildings. For example, you can't construct a Tannery next to a House, Mansion, Noble Villa, or Tenement. If you want to use a lot for this type of building, you must demolish all prohibited adjacent structures first.
If you get overzealous in constructing a particular type of building in a settlement, the GM will feel free to add events to discourage this practice. For example, a settlement with too many Dumps is prone to otyugh and wererat attacks, and a settlement with too many Graveyards tends to have frequent undead attacks. This will not occur, however, if you build too many Houses, Parks, Tenements, or Waterways. GM's note: This is the only condition under which the natural occurrence of events will be altered.
Upgrade To/From: Some buildings can be converted into a more advanced form of the existing building, such as converting a Shrine into a Temple. To upgrade a building, pay the BP cost difference between the current building and the new building. Remove the modifiers from the old building and apply the modifiers from the new building. Upgrading counts as constructing a building for the purpose of the maximum number of buildings you can construct on your turn. You can't upgrade a building to a larger one if there isn't space in the District Grid for the building's new size.
If a buildings upgraded form has a discount you pay the difference in cost, minus half for the discount.
Special: This lists any other effect the building has, such as increasing Defense, the settlement's base value, or the output of a nearby Mine. The total Base Value of all your kingdoms settlements is added together in order to determine your Kingdom Wealth. While not sufficiently relevant to be considered a secondary value in its own right, Kingdom Wealth is used to measure the effectiveness of the Send Aid special edict. See the taking a turn section for more details on this.
Military Applications: This building makes some form of special military advantage available for purchase. This advantage could be as simple as providing the option of purchasing healing potions for a regiment, or as complex as allow the recruiting of units with a new special ability. These benefits apply throughout your entire kingdom, but may only apply once per named building. If more than one building in your kingdom unlocks a particular ability, no added benefit is gained. Example: Building 2 academies does not allow you to recruit troops 2 CRs higher. Similarly, no additional benefit would be gained by having unlocked the various abilities that an academy provides twice. All other benefits from 2 academies would still apply.
Secondary: Building modifiers to Law, Lore, Corruption, Crime, Productivity and Society stack, affect your entire kingdom, and are ongoing from turn to turn.
