Kasbah
Allied Castles work faster.

Overview
Allied Castles work faster.
Effect and affected units
Kasbah changes team Castles work +25% faster. Read the named target carefully: this effect applies only to the units, buildings, or economy described in its entry. This is the main reason to research it; compare the affected units with the army you expect to field.
Research cost and timing
Research is available in Castle Age at the Castle. The recorded cost is 250 Food, 250 Gold, and the research time is 40 seconds. Consider whether the upgrade will affect enough units or workers to repay that investment before the match is decided.
Matchup plan: Kasbah Castle-production team timing
Kasbah increases production from Castles for Berbers and their team, so it can strengthen repeated Trebuchet, Petard, and unique-unit production from a small Castle network. Coordinate the technology with a planned siege window Research Kasbah upon reaching Castle Age when your team intends to use Castle-trained units or a Castle push. Place Castles where they can protect production and pressure an objective, then rally Trebuchets and supporting units together so the faster output translates into a continuous siege. Communicate timing with Berber allies because the bonus stacks when multiple teammates contribute it The technology cannot compensate for lacking Castles, resources, or safe rally points. Do not research it early if the team is not using Castle units; spend on the units and defenses that answer the current attack first
Effect and research timing
Allied Castles work faster. Effect: Team Castles work +25% faster. Research becomes available in: Castle Age; Research at: Castle; Research cost: 250 Food, 250 Gold; Research time: 40 seconds. This research is restricted to its named civilization, so it is part of that faction’s identity rather than a shared option. This is most relevant when the match plan includes defending a position or applying pressure to structures.
