Role, availability & values
The wagon has 250 hit points and moves at 4.0 speed. It must reach a legal site and finish the Foundry before artillery can be trained. Its civilization and mode availability depend on the shipment or scenario that provides it; it is not a universal unit in every technology tree.
Matchup & timing
Choose a site that is safe from raids but close enough to reinforce the planned front. Escort the wagon across exposed ground and protect the completed Foundry while its first guns are produced. Build it when artillery supports the next objective, not when the army lacks basic protection.
Place production within a protected siege line
The 250-hit-point wagon moves at 4.0 speed and builds an Artillery Foundry for free. It delivers production infrastructure, not artillery units. Select a legal position close enough for siege to join the army but far enough back to defend the structure. Its access comes from a specific shipment or scenario, not every civilization’s normal technology tree.
Protect the siege production point
The wagon’s 250 hit points and 4.0 speed give it time to reach a site if the route is scouted, but it cannot train artillery until the Foundry is complete. Place the structure where it is close enough to reinforce a push yet outside immediate enemy fire. Escort it and defend the finished building so the free construction produces lasting value.
