Support | Empire management Endless Legend Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

This statistic shows how much your subjects are content with your rule. Support counts separately for each city and in total, for the whole empire. Therefore, one discontent city is not capable of ruining this figure.

The more cities and the higher population of that cities, the lower support from your subjects. This results from two things:

Overpopulation - it grows as population rises. With five, support drops by 20 points, with seven by 30 and so on. Sometimes, the game fails to calculate this factor correctly, so with seven subjects, you still lose only 20 support points.

Expansion disapproval - it grows with the number of cities that you have. With two cities, you lose 10 support points, with three - 20 support points and so on.

Both of these factors are best visible while founding new cities and during conquest of the cities of the opponent. If your support is low, consider burning down the newly seized city. Also, try not to found new ones, until support goes up again.

High support ensures bonuses to production. It is just the opposite in the case of low support. Therefore, it does not pay off to build new cities , because their effectiveness will be too low. Instead, it is better to raise support in the existing ones and then build new ones.

You can raise support thanks to:

• Luxury resources. All of them provide a bonus of +5 or +10 to support. The exception is wine, which ensures +30 to support.
• Technologies such as Sewer System, (the first era), Central Market (the second era), Bread and Circuses (the third era) and buildings that are faction exclusive.
• Empire Plan. 2nd level of the science and industry ensures a bonus of +25 to support in each city.

Anomalies, such as Oasis, Dragon Tree, Life Tree, Earthspine, Earth Tower, Wizard Stone..

If you found new cities with consideration, you will not be founding new ones too fast and you limit conquest, you should be able to retain high support for your rule with no problems.

If you see that you will not be able to raise support to fast, buy large quantities of luxury resources in the market. Each use will ensure you with high support for 10 consecutive turns.
