Overview

In Shogun 2: Rise of the Samurai, Buildings are used for the recruitment of military units and also subterfuge agents and foreign veterans. They also have a range of effects, either on a clan’s economy or on the units and agents they produce. See each chain for details of how it can be used:-

Castle Chain

Each level of castle building increases the size of its castle town: providing an additional slot on which to build. Larger castles are more difficult to assault. They are also the chief consumer of food in a province, so if farm building levels are not in step with castle size there will be food shortages. Castles cannot be demolished.

Buddhist Chain

This chain of buildings enables the recruitment of sou agents and, in combination with a koryu dojo, warrior monk units. Those buildings higher up the chain provide warrior monks with greater experience and increase the happiness of a province's population.

Improvement Chain

This chain of buildings improves your recruitment and replenishment capabilities and can be specialised to improve the statistics of specific units.

Bushi Chain

This chain of buildings enables recruitment of the new samurai troop types, including samurai heroes, and also produces samurai cavalry when used in combination with pastures.

Clan Chain

The clan chain of buildings enables recruitment of shirabyoshi agents, increases taxation within its province, and spreads your family's influence to nearby provinces.

Barter Chain

This chain of buildings enables the recruitment of junsatsushi and provides a major contribution to province wealth. There are two sub-chains within it: one facilitates long-term growth, the other short to mid-term wealth.

Government Chain

This chain of buildings is the centre of government within a province and public order's main controlling factor. It also enables the recruitment of basic Levy units. There are two sub-chains within it: one focuses on public order and siege defence and the other on recruitment and replenishment of armies. Those buildings higher up the chain either increase the size of the defending garrison or the number of units that can be recruited there in each turn.

Intellectual Chain

This chain of buildings reduces the time required to master arts.

The State Academy is a province specialty version of the Intellectual Chain that is only found in Kyoto.

Koryu Chain

This chain of buildings enables recruitment of the old-style, mostly naginata-armed troop types. It also enables warrior monks when used in combination with Buddhist buildings and naginata cavalry when combined with pastures. The highest level koryu buildings can also produce naginata hero, onna bushi, and tetsubo warrior monks.

Craftwork Chain

This chain of province speciality buildings produce the craftwork commodity that can be traded and is required for the construction of certain other buildings. The craftwork chain can also be used to improve the quality of bows, giving an accuracy bonus to all bow units recruited in the same province.

Gold Mining Chain

This chain of province speciality buildings improves your clan's income.

Holy Site Chain

This chain of province speciality buildings improves happiness and can be developed to either improve the quality of recruited warrior monk units or improve the morale of any recruited land units.

Iron Chain

This chain of province speciality buildings produces income and reduces the cost of recruitment in the same province. It also provides the iron commodity that can be traded.

Naval Chain

This chain of province speciality buildings can be developed to improve overseas trade income and increase the experience of locally-recruited ship crews.

Assassin Chain

This chain of province speciality buildings increases provincial wealth and improves the quality of monomi agents recruited there.

Smith Chain

This chain of province speciality buildings either improves the armour or melee attack statistics of locally-recruited units. The higher the level of building, the greater the increase to the armor and melee attack of the recruited units.

Timber Chain

This chain of province speciality buildings produces income and reduces the cost of locally-constructed ships. It also provides the lumber commodity that can be traded.

Farming Chain

This chain of buildings provides food and is the principle source of income across your entire empire. Farms should be upgraded early in a campaign and often after that. Farms can be developed to either produce more food and income or to raise horses which enable cavalry recruitment in the province when there are appropriate koryu or bushi buildings present.

Infrastructure Chain

This chain of buildings increases the movement speed and rate of replenishment of armies in its province. It also increases town growth, the line of sight of your agents, and their chances of detecting hidden enemy agents.

Port Chain

This chain of buildings enables the recruitment of ships and can be developed to either facilitate overseas trading, increasing economic growth, or to increase the quality of warship crews and the number of warships that can be constructed.

Silk Chain

This chain of province speciality buildings facilitates silk production within a province which generates wealth and provides the silk commodity that can be traded.
