What to study

Progression is four parallel paths, not one tree: Common Path, Labour, Kingdom and Clergy each unlock their own buildings and items at shared Prosperity thresholds (0, 10, 50, 100, 200), with locked tiers shown as padlocks rather than hidden. Hovering the Kingdom path's Castle node opens a tooltip that sells the whole monument system in one paragraph (recruit, train and deploy Combatants; Keep, Barracks, Armoury, Great Hall) and prices the unlock at 25 coins. Frame at about 0:38 in the Release Date and Demo Trailer (Steam).
