Additional buildings you want spread out:
brewery 20 pop(may want multiple, depends on how much beer you go through and if you can sov it or not)
trade office/merch guild(2 plots, only need 1 city with these buildings, and they do not need to be lvled that high, upkeep in wood, clay, stone)
2 geomancers(2 plots, upkeep 1400 wood, 4600 clay, 3000 stone; need one city with these for every 6-7 in a cluster, alliancemates can cover for each other and make sure you add resource increase buildings as needed)
you may also want to build a runemaster temporarily, a lvl 20 runemaster will double the effectiveness of your runes and you can demolish the building after you cast the spell and keep the effectiveness
