Church Upkeep

[Iscariot]

When I launched Attila Total War after the last update, I saw that - according to the tooltip - the church upkeep was gone.
I considered this to be fun but also imbalanced.
So, yeah, I started constructing churches to get christianity running and - guess what happened? maintenance is going up again, so the tooltip is obviously misleading.
Does someone else has the same problem? Or is it just me?

This is the Attila community here...

[Iscariot]

Sorry, this was a Typo. I meant Attila.

[MINOS]

the upkeeps in : "db\building_levels_tables" are still there

[Iscariot]

Obviously. I burned those stupid churches to the ground. ffs. I need the money for the military, huns have to be repelled.

But really: this is cheap. Someone who is new to this franchise will be whacked by the churches and he won't discover why he is loosing so much money.

go for paganism :)

[Iscariot]

There is just one choice as WRE - Roman Paganism. Fun to play, but impossible to sustain with all the food I have to produce to get one of the T5 temples. Plus: Legacy technologies do nothing, they don't unlock the nice high tier buildings which provide ~20 Sanitation or increase religious pressure.
Germanic Paganism sucks their temples are crap. Celtic Paganism is an option though.

go for style, not for the optimum - it's a game :D

Romo Pagan is fine, as long as you make sure you control Africa and turn it into a farm colony, also, once you lockdown the west and Briton there will be no real need for military shipyards, so turn all docks into fishing as fishing is not effected by the climate.

You're not true Roman if you're not in it for Romo Pagan :-) who calls for jesus in battle when you have Mars?

The upkeep never went away. Look at the province detail menu and you'll see the upkeep for buildings. Churches are still the same, just doesn't come up on building menu

I think the OP was misled by the fact that in The Last Roman campaign churches do not have upkeep. Of course it could be a bug which showed him the wrong tooltip.


EDIT : Confirmed that tooltip is wrong but still different from The Last Roman tooltip. In other words somedy changed it without modifying the building itself. Could be interesting if the maintenance is meant to disappear from GC.

[Satrell]

yup, tooltip in the grand campaign doest show maintenance, needs fixing asap

Yeah, I'm not sure about the Roman Expedition DLC, but I am playing the WRE Camp. and when I scroll over a church or sanitation building it shows no upkeep cost. However, when I look into the provincial (or settlement) detail it says building upkeep costs. -200 when there is a church in main settlement and -50 for basic sanitation. For a bit it was doing to same for towns city upgrades and food. I would see see nothing for food costs, but sure enough I would build a level 2 or 3 city and food drops.
