I think schools giving a small bonus to law is a good idea. It sort of abstractly represents that in an educated society, crime drops....and a small 5% bonus represents this crime drop nicely.

Thanks for all the replies.
I was aware that schools did not add a law bonus and that somewhere CA had said that they would.
I thought that they reduced corruption independent of the law bonus that CA decided not to give them.
Would someone please confirm that schools do not reduce corruption and that the only reason they were supposed to reduce corruption was because they were supposed to provide a law bonus.
I'm clinging to a dying hope that all the schools I have built across my empire were not money poured down the drain.
Thanks,

I'm afraid, that if you built said schools to reduce corruption, then, yes, your money was poured down the drain.Originally Posted by woirble
That being said, your governors can gain good traits from schools, and these traits reduce corruption, so it isn't all bad (although I usually build one school in my major city and send 16 year olds there for a few years to "learn").
Schools were going to reduce corruption in RTW 1.5 because of the law bonus, they do not reduce corruption simply from being schools....when it was said they reduced corruption, it was because they were going to have a law bonus, and that reduces corruption.
If I was you, I would consider giving the schools a law bonus yourself....I think a small 5% bonus is fitting to represent a more educated class of people.

Law bonus through schools?
I think some schools today are a very dangerous place to go![]()

Well, I didn't mean it like that (and I know you were just kidding)....more of an abstract representation of a more educated class of people.
More educated people = more people with skills = more people with jobs = less crime.

Couldn't more educated people = more questioning = more discontent towards ruling party = harder to control = more crime and possibly revolution? Dumb people are probably more easily subjugated than intelligent people is, essentially, what saying.
That's an interesting way of looking at it....I suppose it depends on the ruling power.

I really don't think that applied in the Hellenic or Roman worlds historically. Both cultures encouraged learning to some degree, at least for the upper classes.Originally Posted by HopliteElite
