Palace is an administration building chain in a Total War Saga: Troy. These can be built exclusively in province capitals. Only a single palace can be built in each province. The second building (tier 2) in this chain unlocks the recruitment of envoys. Every tier 2 or higher palace increases the capacity for fieldable envoys by 1 up to a maximum of 3.
Description[]
The rulers of the Achaean Bronze Age erected palaces in various locations, often selecting the highest and best-defended area of a given settlement. They were built around a vast, central throne room called ‘megaron’ consisting of four thick pillars supporting a massive domed ceiling, and grew over time as they gained political and religious significance. Surrounding the building itself stood a defensive wall assembled from stones, sometimes reaching a height of eighteen metres. These royal halls were covered with intricate paintings, adding yet another touch of grandeur to an already formidable edifice.
