Empcon: New Buildings and Quality of Life Improvements for Empire Economy + The Southern Realms
Welcome to Empcon. Empcon is a fun, comprehensive update to the economy of the empire, and the southern realms.
So what does it do?
1. Farms now give money just like Bretonnian farms, plus add +1 recruitment slot per level.
2. A new building in the armory chain gives Empire +2 global unit armor, along with some money as it gets sold to civilians as well.
3. Industry buildings now give 500 at level 2 and 1000 at level 3.
4. A brand new economic chain allows you to raise your profit by up to +1500 profit along with powerful boons, but it is very expensive and takes a long time to build. It represents success in your empire as you become powerful.
5. Two brand new defense chains for major and minor settlements that allow you to bolster your defenses and increase replenishment.
6. Port income increased.
7. Roads’ campaign movement bonus now has an all-province effect, it stacks and now there is a point in building roads everywhere to make movement within your empire easier. Also means beastmen, chaos armies and other invaders will have a hard time running away from you for 10+ turns straight.
8. River port chain allows you to further increase income
9. Apothecary chain to boost growth
10. Training Center to boost global martial skills
11. Restored the Empire smithy chain, but with changes to its effects. It is now a semi-economic building.
12. Restored the Academy building and gave the Southern Realms access to it.

Imperial Armoury submod (enables production of steel off of the new armory building)
Strongly recommend usage with max building slots and unit upgrade mods! You will have more money, but also much more to spend, so all that flow of money will prove very useful but will also not decrease the challenge of the game!
Incompatible with total conversion mods (like Radious and SFO). Also bigger Empire overhauls like Sigmar’s Heirs. Any requests for compatibility mods should go to their owners! Because I won’t make them.
