Research: the effect of Academies

[Avicenna]

Maybe what you said is true and academies don't affect traits, but my 2 family members who lived in cities with academies are the 2 best 16 year-olds I have ever had: one had so many traits that I needed to drag down to see them all, and he had the highest command and influence ratings in the entire faction. Another was born as my best governor(best governing traits, and best management when all management boosting ancillaries were given to him).

[Severous]

Now thats an interesting thought.

Children growing up in a city with an academy will join the game already possessing academy related traits. Never expected this.

[lottrbacchus]

.02 the governor of my capital, which has an academy, seemingly randomly got a trait increase to influence or management (can't remember which) on my start of the turn reports. i'm only on my first long campaign, but fairly well along, and haven't had that happen to anyone anywhere else.

oh! here is something relevant from EDCT

ha ha! the ludus magnus has the chance of turning your general into one of those annoying academic gits (boring speaker)!
