farms! I am absolutely not gonna go off on a tangent about the domestication of millet, which, you are probably grateful for. but anyway, Farms in Emperor involve not just a building but also field squares that have to be placed around the farm. You can also build them more or less anywhere on most maps but the grassy places have better fertility so you’ll see me avoid the less green places as we go on.

in addition to millet for food, there’s hemp for textiles. The hemp is what is actually going to make the houses evolve in this case, though different housing in Emperor requires more variety of food. Bland food, for example, is food from only one source. A granary has to have the required number of sources for the food quality when the market buyer goes there for the houses to have access to the right variety of food.

to have hemp access, in addition to growing and storing the hemp, there needs to be a hemp shop on the market square.
