If a regular (not horde) faction loses all of its settlements, but still has any armies left, these armies will suffer from attrition.
The Ogre Kingdoms racial factions do not have settlements but camps, a unique racial mechanic. See the building slots article for more detailed info. As horde factions do not control settlements, they construct buildings when their horde armies are encamped.ĭifferent kinds of settlements have different amounts of building slots, which changes depending on campaign and faction. In the screenshot to the right, notice how the player controls 3 settlements in a province, while the last one is controlled by an enemy faction.įor regular factions, settlements are where they construct buildings. Owning all settlements in a province grants you control of that province, and controlling an entire province allows you to issue a commandment. It also lets you tax the people for money. Owning a settlement means you own the region around it and have vision of the area.
