The settlement of Thebes is a building chain in a Total War Saga: Troy. These are the primary settlements that can be built in the capital of Thebes. Building and upgrading them unlocks additional building slots, up to a maximum of seven, where more buildings can be built. Thebes, like other capital cities, is walled and hosts a permanent garrison.

Description[]

It is said that Cadmus, the first king of Thebes, sent a cow to wander across the land and where the animal would lay down, there he would found a new city. It is at this site that Cadmus slew the dragon of Ares, had the teeth sown into the ground and from them rose up the mighty Spartoi.
