Villagers are divided into three types; Villagers, Monastics and Combatants, and can be promoted to different ranks within these types. All villager types and ranks follow the same pattern of work and free-time periods. When the villager is on free time, they will spend their time visiting locations in the town where they can fill their [[Needs]] (e.g. Wells, Markets, Churches, Taverns, Houses). These [[Needs]] must be filled in order to maintain villager happiness. If they have filled all their [[Needs]] and are still on free time, they will return to their houses to relax until they go to work. | Villagers are divided into three types; Villagers, Monastics and Combatants, and can be promoted to different ranks within these types.

Combatants are free to promote. However, Militiamen can only be promoted to Soldiers once they have reached a certain strength level, which depends on their weapons and military experience from campaigns. The same is true of promoting Soldiers to Knights. Additionally, players can only promote 1 Knight for every 5 Soldiers in their army. | Combatants are free to promote.

== Efficiency == | |||
Villagers work more efficiently depending on their rank and the job they are assigned to. Different jobs are optimised for different ranks, indicated in the build menu of each production building. For example, although Serfs can work in any production building, a Serf in the role of Butcher will become more efficient if he is promoted to Commoner. Similarly, although Novices can work in any Monastery role, nearly all Monastery roles are optimised for Brothers/Sisters. | |||
Once a villager is at the optimal rank for his job, he is at maximum efficiency and will not work faster if he is promoted above the optimal rank for that job. | |||
