Branicki Architecture
Branicki Architecture is a Fortress Age Polish technology in The Baltic Powers that improves Wood gathering and building durability. Villagers gather from trees 5% faster, the Sejm’s automatic Wood generation improves by 20%, and buildings gain 5% hit points.

Effect & research conditions
Research costs 200 Food and 200 Coin and takes 40 seconds. Poles use the Sejm, while the Cossack Hetmanate revolution uses the Rada. The Villager bonus applies to tree gathering; the Sejm/Rada financial-policy effect is a separate automatic income stream. All buildings receive the listed hit-point increase. The next upgrade is Zamojski Architecture on the standard path or Mazepa Architecture for the Cossack Hetmanate.
Research condition
Poles, Fortress Age; Sejm, or Rada for the Cossack Hetmanate
When to research
Research when the economy can use tree gathering or automatic Sejm/Rada Wood income for a sustained period, and when extra building durability can help hold a position. Its 40-second research competes with immediate army production, so time it before a planned expansion or defensive phase. Continue into the matching architecture branch only if the relevant revolution and building are available.
Gathering, automatic income and structure health
Branicki Architecture combines three effects: +5% Villager work rate from trees, +20% automatic Wood work rate from the Sejm and +5% hit points for buildings. The second bonus belongs to the Sejm’s automatic generation and should not be confused with a 20% increase to every Wood gatherer. The building-health effect can apply while holding a forward position, but it does not prevent siege damage.
Choose the correct follow-up
After Branicki Architecture, the standard Polish route continues to Zamojski Architecture, while the Cossack Hetmanate route uses Mazepa Architecture. The follow-up depends on which political path and building are active. Plan the 200 Food and 200 Coin cost and the 40-second research alongside the rest of the economy chain.
