📜 Unified Realms Guide – Governors 📜

🏛️ What Are Governors?

Governors are special leaders you can assign to planets. They increase your empire’s resource production and provide bonus multipliers that scale as they level up.

Every governor has a type (Agricultural, Industrial, Economic, etc.).
Each type gives different starting and max bonuses.
You must assign a governor to a planet to activate their effects.

📦 Governor Slots

Your empire has a limited number of Governor Slots. You can only own and use up to this number.

Slots Used: How many governors you currently own.
Slots Total: Your maximum allowed.
If the slots are full, you cannot hire more until you fire a governor.

💡 Tip: Keep at least one slot empty if you expect to colonize new planets soon.

🧑‍💼 Hiring Governors

The right panel lists all available governors you can hire. Each governor shows:

Their name & type
A short description
Start Bonus (level 1)
Max Bonus (level 10)

To hire a governor, simply click the Hire Governor button.

💡 Tip: Choose governors whose strengths match your planets. A +Food governor belongs on a Food planet.

👑 Managing Your Governors

The left panel shows all governors you currently own. For each one you can:

Rename them
Assign them to a planet
View their production bonus table
Level them up to increase bonuses
Fire them to free up a slot

🪐 Assigning Governors to Planets

A governor only applies their bonuses if they are assigned to a planet.

Select a planet from the dropdown.
Click Assign.
The planet will instantly update its resource gains.

💡 Tip: You can reassign governors anytime. No penalty.

⬆️ Leveling Up Governors

Governors can level from 1 to 10. Higher levels increase their production bonuses.

Each level-up costs resources.
Costs rise with each level.
You can see the exact cost next to the “Level Up” button.

💡 Tip: Leveling governors increases your empire’s output permanently — a strong long-term investment.
