Tier 2 Research

[HawgMafiaHitman]

How do I get my people to use the advanced research desk? I have all of the materials in there, people have places to live. The only thing they have as priority is research, and they all have research level 2+. any idea?

Check he requirements. Some T2 research needs an Apprentice level villager as well as the material. Ie the Food Cellar needs an apprentice level innkeeper. These can only be recruited after liberating a tpwn.

I now see the "profession" section on the research desk, but I was trying to get them to research the barn, which doesnt even have a profession requirement and they still wouldnt research it.

also, how am I supposed to be able to research the belltower if I have to liberate first?

Where does it say that specific requirement? Somewhere on the research desk screen?

Yes on the Advanced Research desk look near the top of the display screen that comes up. It will show an Apprentice Profession that is required.

I have a question on this very topic so I'll ask here instead of starting a new one... I currently have all of the t2 researched and built, I have an apprentice weaver, carpenter, blacksmith, woodcutters (or something like this?) and I still cannot research any T3 stuff besides the town hall, does anyone know how to make them research T3 buildings when every T1 and T2 building is built?

I didnt have any problems with the Barn or the Bell tower research. Not sure why they wont research Barn for you.
For the Belltower, it was tied to a quest with the starter town, and again was researched with no issues.
Basically you get the quest to discuss with the village elder, then the belltower is unlocked as a research item, once researched, you can talk to the elder again and it triggers the town going into rebellion, and the garrison attacks you. If you defeat them, you can then build the Belltower within the town limits and once built it triggers an assault from the Brigand Headquarters. This is where my game ended as I got wiped out and so started again with a new playthrough.

Ah, so perhaps the T3 stuff is unlocked through quest as well then?

I had to research toolmaker first, then reasearched belltower, and was finally able to research barn.

You have to research village improvements to further boost trust with a village and then being able to liberate the village, after that you are able to recruit those apprentices, so far I found following from villages I liberated

Farmer - Hearndean, Harry Hardacre
Farmer - Hearndean, Pavel Lanslet
Weaver - Hearndean, Matt Sanses
Carpenter - Padstow, Thomas Babington
Carpenter - Padstow, Sally Fawcett
Woodsman - Padstow, Amelia Heugin
Innkeeper - Farnworth, Luca Angmar
Healer - Farnworth, Mark Cooper
Labourer - Farnworth, Fanny Terron
Labourer - Farnworth, Neale Chaffin
Farmer - Blackridgepool, Wilmont Irminholt
Farmer - Blackridgepool, Jaques Rhodes
Farmer - Blackridgepool, Peyton Irminholt

With those apprentices you are able to research all stuff.

You can start the liberation when you trust is protector+, then you have to speak with an elder to trigger the liberation by killing all brigands/guards, after that you have to buile Village Belltower improvement and that triggers the final wave of brigands. You need to have around 10 fighters to be able to deal with such wave and guards as well, they are tougher and tougher as you liberated more and more villages and not sure if time in days affects that as well.

I also can't get anyone to research. I'm researching the well, which doesn't have a profession requirement. They started the research, it's at 88%, but now even if I remove all other tasks and make research their first priority no one does any research. They all say waiting for employment.
