Unit Production Ability

This “resource” obviously simply constitutes having buildings of a certain type, but is vital for waging Total War. The main point to make about it in a discussion of province development is that concentrating all the military buildings in one province can give army units major bonuses on recruitment and even allow you to recruit more units each turn. Having a dedicated military province (for an illustrated example see the Military Province page) allows you to do this but one has to balance this with the buildings’ aggregate province-wide order penalties and faction-wide food consumption.
