Additionally, I've always felt that it's too easy to get Empire settlements up and running. All they require is silver, which is exactly what they passively give you over time. Scrounge up the silver to found one Empire settlement (or pick the Expansionist trait), and the passive income will, by itself, fund further Empire expansion. It's too easy.\r\u003Cbr>\r\u003Cbr>In that regard, I prefer VOE's pawn investment. And so, I had an idea: what if Empire settlements required that you first found a VOE Town? Now, the power of a settlement is gated behind both silver \u003Cem>and\u003C\u002Fem> pawns, which is a fairer price given everything that a settlement can give you.\r\u003Cbr>\r\u003Cbr>And if you add on my recent mod \u003Cstrong>\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fsteamcommunity.com\u002Fsharedfiles\u002Ffiledetails\u002F?id=3639689727\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Vanilla Expanded Outposts: Settings for Towns\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fstrong>, then you can also change VOE Towns to require nearby outposts. The overall progression then becomes: 1. found a few outposts 2. found a VOE town 3. finally, turn that town into an Empire settlement.\r\u003Cbr>\r\u003Cbr>Makes the whole thing more meaningful, in my opinion.\r\u003Cbr>\r\u003Cbr>\u003Ch3>How it works\u003C\u002Fh3>\r\u003Cbr>\r\u003Cbr>Once you've created a VOE Town, you need to go through the Empire interface to create a new settlement. Select the town, and then click the settle button. 1 tick later, the Town will be transformed into an Empire settlement!\r\u003Cbr>\r\u003Cbr>The pawns that existed within the town will be moved to the Empire faction, and their cumulative skills will provide a production bonus to the resulting settlement. The magnitude of this bonus, and whether or not it scales, can both be changed in the mod settings. (Note: the production bonus is somewhat hidden by Empire's UI. It doesn't affect the base production value, but it \u003Cem>will\u003C\u002Fem> affect the final production value.)\r\u003Cbr>\r\u003Cbr>\u003Ch3>Like this mod?\u003C\u002Fh3>\r\u003Cbr>I've just posted another mod that adds further Empire-Vanilla Outposts Expanded integration: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fsteamcommunity.com\u002Fsharedfiles\u002Ffiledetails\u002F?id=3640951712\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003Cstrong>Empire: Deliver Taxes to VOE Outposts\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fa>!\u003C\u002Fp>",25,[],[],null,[27,46,59,71],{"id":28,"slug":29,"name":30,"shortDescription":31,"author":8,"workshopUrl":32,"imageKey":10,"thumbnailUrl":33,"packageId":34,"category":13,"tags":35,"downloadCount":42,"rating":43,"publishedAt":44,"updatedAt":45},"2881bc71-989b-4eb6-ba53-7d01b4e437f9","table-diner-continued","Table Diner (Continued)","A mod which adds options to control table eating distances.","https:\u002F\u002Fsteamcommunity.com\u002Fsharedfiles\u002Ffiledetails\u002F?id=3578645173","https:\u002F\u002Fimages.steamusercontent.com\u002Fugc\u002F15109806503159424635\u002F5E4B54D6C6E58B07DD80AFF6EE37B4BAED7FFC6F\u002F","matathias.tdiner",[15,16,36,37,38,39,40,41],"1.5","1.4","1.3","1.2","1.1","1.0",7413,4.8,"2025-10-02T05:19:57.0000000Z","2025-11-23T00:13:56.0000000Z",{"id":47,"slug":48,"name":49,"shortDescription":50,"author":8,"workshopUrl":51,"imageKey":10,"thumbnailUrl":52,"packageId":53,"category":13,"tags":54,"downloadCount":55,"rating":56,"publishedAt":57,"updatedAt":58},"06a397e5-8e54-4af9-bd41-faf1b8bea07c","empire-refactored-cities-fields","Empire Refactored: Cities & Fields","The jack of all trades is the master of small societies.","https:\u002F\u002Fsteamcommunity.com\u002Fsharedfiles\u002Ffiledetails\u002F?id=3766589050","https:\u002F\u002Fimages.steamusercontent.com\u002Fugc\u002F12842574687892321771\u002F3F305A48887B4C732A6C6BF14D2C773BD12ACA8B\u002F","matathias.empire.urbanrural",[15,16],1157,4.9,"2026-07-17T18:49:37.0000000Z","2026-07-17T19:24:18.0000000Z",{"id":60,"slug":61,"name":62,"shortDescription":63,"author":8,"workshopUrl":64,"imageKey":10,"thumbnailUrl":65,"packageId":66,"category":13,"tags":67,"downloadCount":68,"rating":56,"publishedAt":69,"updatedAt":70},"b82b332e-b661-44dc-820d-30dba2026c8c","empire-refactored","Empire Refactored","This mod has nothing to do with the Empire faction added by the Royalty DLC.","https:\u002F\u002Fsteamcommunity.com\u002Fsharedfiles\u002Ffiledetails\u002F?id=3701480464","https:\u002F\u002Fimages.steamusercontent.com\u002Fugc\u002F12654278746561887761\u002FA2ED3EC3E915E09B3103088AACCD85E56446B2E9\u002F","matathias.empire",[15,16],50617,"2026-04-06T20:51:04.0000000Z","2026-08-09T22:28:44.0000000Z",{"id":72,"slug":73,"name":74,"shortDescription":75,"author":8,"workshopUrl":76,"imageKey":10,"thumbnailUrl":77,"packageId":78,"category":13,"tags":79,"downloadCount":80,"rating":43,"publishedAt":81,"updatedAt":82},"f266facd-3fd7-42c2-9a75-ce4afbc326f4","empire-refactored-outposts-settlements","Empire Refactored: Outposts & Settlements","Empire and Vanilla Outposts Expanded - two of the oldest and, at least at one point in time, most popular mods to enable a semblence of 4X gameplay in Rimworld.","https:\u002F\u002Fsteamcommunity.com\u002Fsharedfiles\u002Ffiledetails\u002F?id=3751199517","https:\u002F\u002Fimages.steamusercontent.com\u002Fugc\u002F17588589461762632339\u002F8C19C8255E933B7ED267789ABDAA53D08CEA89E9\u002F","matathias.empirerefvoe",[15,16],1616,"2026-06-24T23:39:55.0000000Z","2026-07-17T18:51:23.0000000Z",[84,97,110,123],{"id":85,"slug":86,"name":87,"shortDescription":88,"author":89,"workshopUrl":90,"imageKey":10,"thumbnailUrl":91,"packageId":92,"category":13,"tags":93,"downloadCount":94,"rating":56,"publishedAt":95,"updatedAt":96},"46736a72-6b57-4718-b154-25eb5d59a0f8","replace-stuff","Replace Stuff","Place buildings anywhere, on top of existing things, and the game will handle it.","Uuugggg","https:\u002F\u002Fsteamcommunity.com\u002Fsharedfiles\u002Ffiledetails\u002F?id=1372003680","https:\u002F\u002Fimages.steamusercontent.com\u002Fugc\u002F921426876980662243\u002F50B18BF7A9132FB5B01AFD7A5AACA57DF1940771\u002F","uuugggg.replacestuff",[15,40,39,36,37,38],2059514,"2018-04-28T04:53:36.0000000Z","2024-12-31T18:41:04.0000000Z",{"id":98,"slug":99,"name":100,"shortDescription":101,"author":102,"workshopUrl":103,"imageKey":10,"thumbnailUrl":104,"packageId":105,"category":13,"tags":106,"downloadCount":107,"rating":56,"publishedAt":108,"updatedAt":109},"62f73e39-1314-444b-b55c-878768790ee6","vanilla-textures-expanded","Vanilla Textures Expanded","1.6.0 (16\u002F07\u002F2020): Updated to 1.3.
