Citadels & state control

Learn about Corvaine’s level 16 citadels, garrisons, fortifications, state production bonuses, and daily food levies in Law of Kings.

The center of a state

Each of Corvaine’s 16 states has a level 16 Citadel with a level 15 wall. Taking a citadel is an advanced territorial objective, supported by a substantial garrison and fortifications.

Benefits of holding a citadel

The owner receives a 15% production bonus in their cities within that state and can levy food once every 24 hours. The supplied levy settings use a 2% share and a cap of 20,000 food per city.
