革新性

CK3の紹介 #08 - テクノロジー. Havocがテクノロジーと、それをどのようにアンロックするかについて紹介してくれます！

革新性（Innovations）とは、ある文化が編みだすことのできた技術的、法的、イデオロギー的な進展を表すものです。ひとたび革新性がアンロックされると、アンロックした文化のあらゆる伯爵領とキャラクターがそれを使うことができるようになります。革新性は、軍隊と市民（Military and Civic）、文化（Cultural）、地域（Regional）の3つのカテゴリーに分類されます。

• 軍隊と市民の革新性にはいくつかの要因に基づいて毎月アンロックに向けて進捗するわずかな可能性があります。要因の中で最も重要なのはその文化の伯爵領の開発度の平均です。最も重要な要因の２番目は、すでに革新性をアンロックした別の文化に属する伯爵領との隣接数です（伝播/Exposure）。
• 地域の革新性は、文化が特定の地域（Region）において十分な存在感を持っているときにアンロックされます。たとえその地域が失ったとしてもアンロックは維持されます。
• 文化の革新性は常に有効ですが、特定の文化を必要とします。

封建制（Feudal）と氏族制（Clan）の政府はより高い王権（Crown Authority）と慣習的領有権（De Jure claim）をアンロックするのを革新性に依存しています。開戦事由

進捗の可能性は、5パーセント + 志向（Fascination）のパーセント + 伝播の40%です。

同じ宗教内の別の文化がすでに革新性を持っている場合は伝播が得られます。

志向のパーセントは20%がベースで、それに加えて文化指導者（Culture Head）の学識能力１に対して2%追加されます。 科学的手法（Scientific）のパークがあればこれらの値は文化指導者の学識能力１に対して2.7%となり、最大27%まで上がります。

進捗量 = 0.3 + (その文化の州の平均の開発度 * 0.02) + 0.2（時代が進んでいれば）

「スラヴの統一（Unite the Slavs）」のようなディシジョン（decisions）によるランダムの革新性は、ゲーム内の日付によって決定されます。

時代

各文化はその文化がどのような革新性をアンロックできるかを決定する4つの時代（Era）のうちのどこか1つに位置しています。

ある時代の革新性の少なくとも50%がアンロックされ、必要最低限の西暦に達すると、文化はその文化の伯爵領の平均的な 開発度に基づいて次の時代にゆっくりと進捗します。

文化指導者（Cultural Head）が部族制（Tribal）なら、その文化は他の時代に進むことはできません。

※説明文は日本語化MOD（CK3_JPM_PROJECT）の成果を使用しております。

時代	最低限の西暦	説明
部族（Tribal）	476	部族の時代は成文化した法と制度化された政府の出現以前の文化です。部族制の政府を持つ統治者は部族の時代の革新性しか利用できません。
中世初期（Early Medieval）	900	中世初期の時代は専門の管理者の出現と複数の重要な革新性が見られ、文化が暗黒時代を抜け出せるようになります。
中世盛期（High Medieval）	1050	中世盛期の時代は技術と行政が大きく進歩をはじめ、町が都市へと発展し貴族が最高の地位を占める一方で市民階級が台頭してきます。
中世後期（Late Medieval）	1200	中世後期の時代は封建世界の頂点です。官僚、職人、商人、貸金業者は旧特権階級の力を侵害しはじめていますが、君主自身には及んでいません。

部族時代の革新性の一覧

部族時代のすべての革新性をアンロックすることは、（独立した部族制の支配者のために）封建制の受け入れ（Adopt Feudal Ways）と氏族制の受け入れ（Adopt Clan Ways）のディシジョンが求められます。

What it lacks in range and firepower, it more than makes up for in rate of fire, making it an ideal weapon for defensive positions.	innovation_repeating_crossbow
Compound Bows	All Mongolic All Turkic Alan Mogyër	Can recruit Horse Archers Men-At-Arms	Crafted from laminated strips of horn, wood, and sinew, our compound bows are much smaller than a traditional bow while being just as powerful.

Elephantry	India or South East Asia	Can recruit War Elephants Men-at-Arms	Elephants are difficult to raise in captivity, so each mahout must capture their own wild elephants and train them.

Battlements	-5% Men-at-Arms Maintenance Unlocks all Early Medieval Era Fortification Buildings Unlocks the Fortification Rights Feudal Contract	Beyond fortifying just the keep itself, building a durable outer wall which can be safely manned by our archers will give our castles an extra layer of protection against attackers.	innovation_battlements

Even if conflict does result, we will clearly be in the right when we defend our subjects!	innovation_land_grants
Scutage	+5% Republican Vassal Tax Contribution Unlocks the Scutage Feudal Contract	Military service has always been expected of our subjects, but there are some who are unable or unwilling to provide it.
