I have recruit a champion. He has the characteristic brilliant which is : increase research in any town the Sovereign is. I think it is a typo since I don't understand how a champion could improve Sovereign capability.
It is not a typo. If you've recruited him and he is in the same city as your sovereign, the cities research is increased by the specified amount.
Are you meaning that the sovereign and the champion must be in the same city in order to use the bonus of the champion?
Hrmm, well I just looked at the xml that gives him abilities. The NPC in question is Viy. He has two abilities. One is that he provides 2 research points per turn. Period. Whether he's in a city or not. So if you recruit him, you'll get 2 RP per turn from him. The second ability he has is that if you station him in a city that also has your Sov stationed, you get 5 extra RP. This is in addition to the 2 RP he is already giving you.
I have verified both abilities work in the current internal build.
At only 50 gold to recruit, he sounds like a pretty good deal to me!
