Retinues is a Military Policy Card in Civilization VI: Gathering Storm. It was added to the game in the Antarctic Late Summer Update, in which it inherited some of the effects of Professional Army.
Strategy[]
Retinues halves the number of strategic resources needed to upgrade units, allowing you to modernize your military more quickly.
Civilopedia entry[]
