Anno 117 Pax Romana: Building Guide
Building is a core aspect of Anno 117: Pax Romana, and if players don't know how to rotate or demolish buildings, for example, this guide will help.
Players can unlock deities in their save files, but there is also a way to permanently get access to them. This guide will go over each of these processes so gamers know how they can select the best deities for their city in any of their Anno 117: Pax Romana save files.
How to Unlock Deities in a Save File in Anno 117: Pax Romana
Neptune, Ceres, and Mars are available from the get-go in Anno 117: Pax Romana, but gamers will want to increase their options so they can guarantee that they select the best fit for each of their islands. To do this, they should unlock all available deities.
To unlock all religious cults in Anno 117, players have to make their way through the Civics tree and research the right technology. Here's how much they will have to research in order to unlock each deity in their current save file:
- Cult of Minerva: available on the first tier of the Civics research tree
- Cult of Mercury-Lugus: available on the second tier of the Civics research tree
- Cult of Cernunnos: available on the second tier of the Civics research tree
- Cult of Epona: available on the third tier of the Civics research tree
How to Permanently Unlock All Deities in Anno 117: Pax Romana
Players don't have to progress through the Civics research tree in order to gain access to locked deities if they purchase them through the Hall of Fame menu. Players can complete Accolades to earn Fame Points, and unlock Hall of Fame rewards. The locked deities are among the Hall of Fame rewards in Anno 117: Pax Romana, and purchasing them in this menu will give players permanent access to them across all game modes.
Here is how players can unlock each deity permanently in Anno 117: Pax Romana:
- Mercury-Lugus: Latium Hall of Fame Tier III - requires 40 Fame Points
- Epona: Albion Hall of Fame Tier I - requires 30 Fame Points
- Cernunnos: Albion Hall of Fame Tier III - requires 55 Fame Points
Players can level up their Hall of Fame Tier in Anno 117 by spending Fame Points.
Minerva cannot be purchased through the Hall of Fame, so players will always have to research the Cult of Minerva through the Civics research tree in order to unlock her as a deity.
