REPUBLIC FOR LEGENDARY HEROES by D. Elliot Lamb
Part of Between Life and Death
Ever wanted to give the people more of a voice in your channeler's kingdom? Now you can have public forums and a senate. Only one problem...
...A lot less military funding!
This mod introduces the Res Publica faction trait, which jolts your economy at the expense of a strong military. Much higher unrest will disguise the huge economic potential of the Republic. If you can survive the low public support for a military (hint - heroes!), your society will be the envy of Elemental!

INCLUDES:
Carian Faction, with Republic Faction Ability:
-Republic government makes your start very challenging. But the open society of a true republic means if you survive to late game, your economy will be an overwhelming powerhouse!
-Start one difficulty level lower than normal - being a Republic in a kingdom and empire world is hard, and staying alive early game is a challenge. But the Republic is a refreshing new experience!
-Conclaves and Towns have many new economy-boosting improvements. You could almost ignore fortresses altogether!
-Fortresses are still useful, but are weighed down by much greater food, gold, and growth penalties.
-Unique unit designs catered to the Republic economy
-Use the Republic Trait ability in your custom made factions!
Merit Before Blood Ability:
-You can acquire henchmen right from the start. They can be Trogs, Quendar, Tarth or Amarian, regardless of your faction's race type. They might even be non-humanoid!
Who knows what kind of magical potential is hidden out there?

Secret Societies Faction Ability:
-New improvement that juices research but increases faction-wide unrest. Also unlocks two skill books that give experience directly, or up the whole army's xp rate!
-Unique new henchmen (two sets, one set available from the beginning, but also very useful!). Get to Higher Education and you can train these henchmen that turn the savage magic of the Trogs right back against them!
-Use this ability in your custom made factions!
-Includes Level 6 and 7 cities!
