All innovations are equal, and there is no requirement to use innovations gained from a particular field of advances on an invention inside that field. Innovations are gained primarily from technological advances, which grant one innovation for each level, and can also be gained by adopting certain military traditions, as a reward for certain specific missions, as a rare outcome of successfully stealing technology, or occasionally from researchers that have certain traits.
However, most countries that start with a higher level of advances do start with a corresponding number of innovations to purchase inventions with at the beginning of the game.Įach invention requires spending one innovation to adopt. Unlike advances, no country has any inventions adopted at the start. Some inventions are keystone inventions that are specially marked with a more elaborate border these mark inventions that are considered important, whether because they have a strong effect or modifier or unlock particularly important mechanics, but are not mechanically different in any way from normal inventions. Some inventions also have when activated effects, with some merely descriptions of buildings, wonder effects, subject types, or other mechanics that are permanently unlocked once the invention is adopted, while others are one-time effects and bonuses that triggered immediately when the invention is purchased. Most inventions have modifiers that are applied when active, which are permanent modifiers that the country gains once it adopts the invention. These culture-, government-, tag-, rank-, and DLC-specific inventions generally will not appear unless their requirements are met. Some inventions also have additional requirements, such as requiring a primary or integrated culture of a specific culture group, a certain government type, a certain country rank, particular DLCs, or simply only being available to certain countries. Every invention is associated with a specific field of advances and is structured as part of a tree, with most inventions requiring prerequisites that must be adopted first before the next invention can be taken. Inventions represent specific technologies or practices that can be adopted by the state in order to get a specific military, economic, or political effects and bonuses.
