Garrison Command

Description
Overview:
Adds two Empire Upgrades for any class that reduce tier 1 unit and tier 1 and 2 unit upkeep respectivly, as long as those units are garrisoned in cities.

Motivation:
While there are numerous advantages in tactical combat for Defenders, on the strategic layer it was never really worthwhile to fortify your cities in the first place.

Details:
For more information, see screenshots.
This is version 2. The main change was to split the research into two Empire Upgrades. The first upgrade reduces unit upkeep of garrisoned tier 1 units by 1, i.e. their upkeep changes from 4 to 3 gold per turn. The second upgrade reduces unit upkeep of tier 1 units further to 2 gold per turn and tier 2 units from 8 to 6 gold per turn.

Hmm yess a lot of these mods like economic management add quite a huge amount to be researched! But this one it's only about 2 afaik, it's not so bad!

I played with this a few times and feel that it should be automatic feature not a skill or combined into one skill, I already have too much to research.

Thanks Sovietkotek I'll check that out.

I use Fortress Additions + Addendum mods and place fortresses in small areas that have gold + mana resources. In that mod the fortresses produce a small amount of gold that can cover the cost of a T2 garrison which will be very powerful with military upgrades from the City Development mod :x!

I never get volunteer in any of my games please don't nerf this because of volunteer. I'd love to garrison forts, I don't right now because it's too expensive but I would if the cost were reduced, it would synergize perfectly so I wouldn't have to go through and delete a bunch of troops periodically.

I would like to garrison forts with it if possible please!

I don't understand why people are complaining about fort garrisons. Why would you bother garrisoning a fort at all?

I like the concept. But it seems a bit over powered when used with volunteer units like the humans civic guard. Perhaps make the 2nd research only effect tier 2 units or perhaps even post a 2nd version that is like that. (Yes this is a request and my opinion.)

It does not seem to work for units garrisoning forts.
