Capacities

Units and heroes have capacities, mostly passive bonuses that can have a wide variety of effects. Unit capacities generally alter or improve a unit's performance in combat. Heroes additionally have general capacities, which boost the army they are leading, and governor capacities, which increase yields in the city where they are assigned.

Mechanics

Most capacities come from the unit itself, or from equipment. Typically units start with at least two capacities, while heroes start with at least five or six, including one general capacity and one governor capacity. Most factions also have faction-unique capacities that are shared across all units and heroes of that faction; for example, all Drakken units and heroes have Fast Learner 1, and all Forgotten units and heroes have Stealth.

Capacities are not the same as hero skills, though a few skills unlock capacities.

Many capacities have multiple levels of effect, for example, Army Health Boost 1, Army Health Boost 2, and Army Health Boost 3. These do not stack, and if multiple exist on the same unit or hero then only the highest level will apply. The same is true for duplicates of the same capacity. A unit with Free Counter, for example, will not gain a second Free Counter from the Eye of the Farthinker.

Capacities from Accessories

Standard Accessories

These are the capacities granted by the general-purpose accessories that can be acquired by any faction over the course of the game, either by progressing through the technological eras, or researching the appropriate technology. While Insignias can only be equipped on heroes, the other types of accessories can be equipped by any unit.

The capacities usually come in three different levels, with the first and second level only being present on Tier 1 and 2 Iron, Titanium, and Glassteel versions of the weapon, while Tier 3 Iron, Titanium, and Glassteel, as well as every Dust, Adamantian, Palladian, Mithrite, and Hyperium version of the weapon will have the third level of the capacity.
