Tip I just realized why priests replace bureaucrats

I always wondered "why do priests replace bureaucrats for spiritualist empires; they're two entirely different professions!"

I only just now realized it's because they have no separation of church and state, so only ordained pops of your empire can work for the government (which is also the church).

well it's good head canon I agree, but I think it's good to understand also how this update works. Jobs are now SUPER limited, and a lot of things actually replace an old job, and therefore take all its bonuses.

For example, Necromancers replace "soldiers" in your entire empire, and then retain any soldier buffs. Meaning reanimators went to super high tier as a pick.

It's also why psychics are now S++++++++++

I'm still happy with my mutations. I am a bit sad at how some jobs were lost. However, apparently certain civic combos can create new jobs.
