    Race/personality bonus and building effects bonus

    I was wondering if Race/personality bonus and building effects bonus % are additive or multiplicative.

    For example, an avian warrior has a bonus of +30%br and warriors +15% Off Military Efficiency. So if i ran 10% homes with the effect of +30% br and 10%tg with effects of +15% higher offensive efficiency, is that gonna give me a total of +60%br and 30%ome when in war?

    I feel like that cant be the case. Seems too high.

    15% added twice is calculated like this 1.15x1.15 so it is 1.3225 or 132.25% or put it simply an additional 32.25%
    same for 30% added twice is like 1.3x1.3 or 1.69 or an additional 69%


    You never add bonuses by addition but always multiplying, if you subtract you do the same, say if you subtract 15% twice you need to calculate 0.85x0.85 which is 0.7225 or 72.25% of the original or a reduction of 27.75%

    Can't teach you basic math in such a short post, but this is how all bonuses work.

    For added confusion occasionally bonuses are added rather than multiplied (eg generals). But yeah you won't go too far wrong if you assume every bonuses is multiplied.
