Real China Mechanic
(Likes appreciated, thank you!)
1. During the Warlords period, independent rulers have been buffed across the board to better resist foreign invasions.
2. During the two Golden Ages, recruitment and maintenance costs for soldiers are significantly reduced, and Development growth is increased. The Reformist faction receives greater buffs. The Expansionist faction receives greater buffs. The Emperor receives significant buffs, most vassal factions are disabled, and it’s easier to gain Legitimacy.
3. During the Periods of Tension, the Traditionalist faction is significantly strengthened. They can withhold a large portion of taxes. The taxes they collect are reduced due to lower-level corruption, but overall they can profit substantially.
4. Hegemons can now restore De Jure territory at any time. Frontier Expansion projects will always seize territory.
5. Added Recommendation, Recruitment by Invitation, Promotion, and Demotion. Increased the impact of civil wars on dynasty rise and fall. AI that has not paid tribute will no longer proactively offer tribute to the Celestial Empire. The Territorial Expansion era provides army recruitment and maintenance reductions. (Don’t worry about your son’s slow promotion!)
6. Slightly buffed the military capabilities of Han culture.
7. Ancient China was often caught in a cycle between Ages of Turmoil and Golden Ages. The thresholds for entering a Golden Age from an Age of Turmoil and vice versa have been lowered to 2000 and 1000 respectively. The threshold for entering an Age of Turmoil from a Golden Age is now 2500, and entering an Age of Chaos from an Age of Turmoil now requires 3000 (changed to 1500 for the 867 start date).
8. Players can now fill their own coffers at the cost of reducing the state treasury’s income.
9. Chinese Internal Conflict mechanics.
10. Dynamic Celestial Empire Hegemony (new De Jure empires will be automatically incorporated into the Celestial Empire).
11. One-Click Grant Title + One-Click Join War (same name).
12. More Dynasty Names + Celestial Empire Situations incorporated.
13. Rework the steppe government(Phase 2 in progress).
