Populations are an essential part of your cities in Endless Legend 2, and are key to your economy. Founding a city gives that city 1 population unit of the empire's original population. Populations are grown with [[File:FoodIcon.png|16x16px]] Food and require a [[File:FoodIcon.png|16x16px]] Food upkeep. Empires with the Knightly Husks affinity cannot naturally grow pops, instead feeding them and buying them out with [[File:DustIcon.png|16x16px]] Dust.

Populations are grown with {{Food}} Food and require a {{Food}} Food upkeep.

Reaching certain thresholds of a given Population in your empire will unlock various bonuses, depending on the Population.

== Population growth ==
Populations grow passively based on the city's [[File:FoodIcon.png|16x16px]] Food production. The bar at the middle of the top bar in the City screen shows current Population growth and allows the player to swap which population type is currently growing in the city. This does not reset growth progress.

The amount of growth needed for a new pop scales exponentially based on the total amount of pops already in the settlement.

Populations usually have an upkeep of -4 [[File:FoodIcon.png|16x16px]] Food, or -4 [[File:DustIcon.png|16x16px]] Dust if the player is a Knightly Husks empire.

=== Population buyout ===
=== Population buyout ===
Certain faction traits and affinities, such as Knightly Husks and Hive Society, allow Populations to be instantly created with certain resources (Dust for Knightly Husks and Corpses for Hive Society). Buyout cost scales the same as growth cost.

Revision as of 04:44, 1 August 2026

Populations are an essential part of your cities in Endless Legend 2, and are key to your economy. Founding a city gives that city 1 population unit of the empire's original population. Populations are grown with Food Food and require a Food Food upkeep. Empires with the Knightly Husks affinity cannot naturally grow pops, instead feeding them and buying them out with Dust Dust.

Reaching certain thresholds of a given Population in your empire will unlock various bonuses, depending on the Population.

Population growth

Populations grow passively based on the city's Food Food production. The bar at the middle of the top bar in the City screen shows current Population growth and allows the player to swap which population type is currently growing in the city. This does not reset growth progress. The amount of growth needed for a new pop scales exponentially based on the total amount of pops already in the settlement.

Populations usually have an upkeep of -4 Food Food, or -4 Dust Dust if the player is a Knightly Husks empire.

Population buyout

Certain faction traits and affinities, such as Knightly Husks and Hive Society, allow Populations to be instantly created with certain resources (Dust for Knightly Husks and Corpses for Hive Society). Buyout cost scales the same as growth cost.

Other sources of population

Assimilating a Minor Faction whose pacified Villages are in the borders of your Cities will spawn 1 Population per village in their corresponding cities. This population can only be spawned once, even if the assimilation is swapped. The Knightly Husks affinity allows the Last Lords to build Lords' Estates on pacified Minor Faction villages, which will passively generate populations that can then be Rounded Up for a marginal Influence cost.
