As you will no doubt find out through your time in Dragon Kingdoms, plans are a vital part of province development. Researching new plans will unlock buildings, special bonuses, workers and military units. There are three types of plans in Dragon Kingdoms, and each serves a unique and distinct purpose.
Structure Plans: These plans are the cheapest plans available and take the least amount of time for completion. Basic plans usually unlock a new building, allowing you to construct the building once you have researched the plan successfully.
Technology Research: These are neither cheap nor do they take a short time for completion. These plans consume a healthy amount of resources and time as they are brought to completion, and for good reason. These plans offer specific bonuses to your province and these bonuses are not just limited to building requirements, worker efficiency and warring. For more information, view individual plan information below.
Special Plans: Special Plans are race-specific plans and reflect the attributes of the character managing the settlement. Special plans available to you depend on your chosen race for your character. Special plans require exponential amounts of resources and time to be brought to completion, but they also offer the most beneficial services to your province.

| If you meet the resource requirements for the plan, you can initiate it. To initiate a plan, you need to tick the respective checkbox under the Set Plan! column and then click on Update Research at the bottom of the page.
Plans are researched by Scholars. The more scholars you assign to research a plan, the faster it will be completed. At each End Turn, your scholars will produce plan points as they study the plan. When the plan points remaining, as indicated under the Remaining column, reach 0, the plan will be completed.

Research can be initiated in three easy steps .
| Step 1 |
 |
Step 1: Tick the checkboxes for the respective plans you wish to research |
If you can research a plan, a checkbox will appear beside its name under the Set Plan! column. Once you initiate research on a given plan, the resources required for the research are deducted from your reserves and the plan is initiated. However, you must employ scholars to carry out the research.
To initiate the research, click on Set Plan near the bottom of the page, or hit ENTER on your keyboard. |
| Step 2 |
 |
Step 2: Employ scholars |
| Enter the amount of scholars you wish to dedicate to study this plan. This can be done by entering a value under the Scholars column for the respective plan. The more scholars you employ, the faster the research will take place. You can also enter negative quantities to stop scholars from studying certain plans.
To employ the scholars and finalise the research, click on Set Plan near the bottom of the page, or hit ENTER on your keyboard.
|
| Step 3 |
 |
Step 3: End turns until your scholars finish research |
You should see some numbers under the Remaining column for the respective plan. Initially, when you initiate a research, the value in this column is the same as the value in the Points column, which basically states how much plan points are needed to complete the research project. As you end turns, your employed scholars will produce plan points in an attempt to finish this research.
