Realm Forge: Every Royal Decree
70 decrees in 14 categories: what each one costs and what it changes.
Royal Decrees are how Realm Forge grows. Better smithing, marketing campaigns, iron contracts, guild charters, the jump from Village to Kingdom and the march to Empire are all decrees. A decree appears in your list once its condition is met, for example after hiring your first Apprentice. You can enact it when you can pay its cost. Most can be enacted once. A few repeat, as noted in the tables.
This list is generated from the game's own decree data, so costs and effects match the game exactly. The decrees that tell the story of the final confrontation are left out on purpose.
Currencies decrees use
- Gold comes from selling swords on the market. It pays for most Village decrees.
- Knowledge is generated by Scholars and stored up to your Library cap. It gates the production upgrades.
- Inspiration builds only while Knowledge sits at its cap. It pays for the strongest one-off boons.
- Renown comes from lifetime sword milestones. It is spent on Scholars and Libraries, and it gates the Kingdom.
- Swords are the currency of the Kingdom and Empire phases. Glory is earned in battle against dragons.

How to prioritise decrees
- Production first. The smithing chain multiplies every worker you already own. In the Village it usually beats hiring one more worker.
- Check the cap before saving Knowledge. A decree that costs more than your Library cap can hold will never become affordable through Scholars alone. Put Renown into Libraries first.
- Let Inspiration build on purpose. It only builds while Knowledge is full, so stop spending Knowledge for a while when you are saving for an Inspiration boon.
- Repeatable decrees are safety valves. Requisition Iron, Sovereign Mandate, Grand Vizier, Songs of Valor and Legendary Commander can be enacted again, so they help you recover from a bad iron or Renown position rather than being one-time upgrades.
