By investing in research, your realm is able to function with increased efficiency without having to invest in additional workers to obtain similar results. Currently there are five areas of research which can further improve your realm.


Realm Research Fields
Research Area Max (%) Explaination
Food Production
25 %
 By increasing your farming methods, you are able to produce more food per worker
Training Costs
25 %
 Equiping your serf and military units with the tools needed for their trade can be rather costly, understanding how to maximise material usage allows for cheaper training
Training Techniques
25 %
 Educating serfs and military can be a slow process, researching improved learning methods allows for faster and more effective training
Military Maintenance
25 %
 By producing better quality weapons, your military requires less wages for upkeep
Magic Proficiency
25 %
 With further study into the sorcery arts, your mages are better able to develop their skills and train others their secrets
Stealth Proficiency
25 %
 By further learning the stealth arts, your blackguards are able to practice their skills and entice others to join their cause




An increased research maximum does not mean you need to put more research points into this to be more effective. It requires the same amount of research points regardless, just that the research points that are put into this are more effective. (ie if you had a category of max 25%. If this then changes to max 75%, all research points in this category would then be in essence 3 times as effective)
