When to research
Research Cargo Inspections when the Danish Customs House is taxing enough enemy shipments for knowing each card name to inform defense. The technology reveals the names of taxed shipments; it does not delay or block them. Use the information to position counters or protect the threatened objective, and compare the 35 Wood and Coin cost with other Customs House options.
Reveal shipment names at the Customs House
Cargo Inspections is an Exploration Age Danish Customs House technology. It costs 35 Coin and 35 Wood and takes 10 seconds. It lets the player see the names of all shipments taxed by the Customs House. It provides information rather than a direct resource or combat bonus.
Use the information to choose a tax
Knowing which shipments are taxed can help the Danish player judge the opponent’s likely plan and the value of a shipment. The low cost makes it a short early research, but it only matters when the Customs House is active and enemy shipments are being taxed. Protect the building so the information remains useful.
