Ideological Foundation

What is the ideology of version 5.0?
The direction of faction reworks that can be seen and learned from the Empire and Dwarf factions.

1. Advance the acquisition time of buildings and unit tiers.
2. Remove complex unit hiring conditions and blacksmith.
3. Consolidate excessively fragmented or specialized-use buildings into one.

In other words, the ideology of 5.0 is
-> Bringing more diverse tactical choices from the beginning stage of the campaign to enhance the fun of the game.
