Irrigation

Downtime Region 
Source Kingmaker Adventure Path pg. 524
Requirements You control a hex adjacent to a river or lake that itself does not contain a river or lake.
You send excavators to build waterways, canals, or drainage systems to convey water from areas that have natural access to a river or lake. Spend RP as determined by the hex's most inhospitable terrain feature (see the Building on Rough Terrain sidebar on page 519). Then attempt a basic check.

Critical Success The hex gains a river or lake terrain feature (or you change the effects of a previous critical failure at Irrigation in this hex into a failure); work with your GM to determine where these features appear in the hex. In addition, your workers were efficient and quick, and you regain half the RP you spent building the waterways.
Success As success, but without regaining any RP.
Failure You fail to build workable systems or to restore a previous critical failure, and the hex does not gain the river or lake terrain feature.
Critical Failure As failure, but your attempts at Irrigation are so completely useless that they become breeding grounds for disease. Gain 1 Unrest. From this point onward, at the start of your Kingdom turn's Event phase, attempt a DC 4 flat check. This flat check's DC increases by 1 for each hex in your kingdom that contains a critically failed attempt at Irrigation. If you fail this flat check, your kingdom suffers a Plague event in addition to any other event it might have. You can attempt this activity again in a later Kingdom turn to undo a critically failed Irrigation attempt.
