If you build, say an assassins guild, then all of your assassins will have higher subterfuge when trained at that city. The only thing you lose from hosting a guild is the initial construction fee.
If your score reaches 500 and the guild hasn't built a world headquarters yet, they will ask you to host their headquarters.Īll guilds offer all benefits and no penalties. If your score with a guild reaches 250 in a city, and you do not have a master guild with them yet, they will ask you to host their master guild. If you reject the offer, your score with the guild takes a penalty, and they will approach you again if the score reaches 100 again. As soon as you score 100 points with a guild in a city, they will approach you about building a house there (provided you have the money to build it). The threshold for a guild house in the city is 100. The points accumulate until you hit the thresholds. Each city keeps track of its score at each guild independly of your other cities. For example, when you recruit a merchant, your score at the merchants guild (in the recruiting city) increases by 10. Each guild is programmed so that when you perform certain actions your points with them increase. You get invites from guilds by scoring "points" with them. The guild will only establish one headquarters in the entire world, so not only do you have to worry about pleasing the guild, but make sure you are scoring points with the guild faster than any other factions. You can continue to please the guild and you might be asked to host the guilds world headquarters.
You may only have one of each type of master guild in your faction. At the master guild you will recieve even more benefits from the guild. If you continue to please the guild after getting a house in your lands, not only will the guild wish to build houses in more of your cities, but they might ask you to build a master guild. You also may only have one of each guild house per city. The guild houses may not be built on demand, only at the request of the guild. If you accept it will cost you 1000 florins, but you will recieve the benefits of the guild- and your reputation with the guild may increase. Based on your actions, a guild may approach you and ask if you will support their house in one of your cities.
First off, what is a guild? A guild is a group of people devoted to a certain trade.
