When to research
Research Comanche Trade Language when the Comanche settlement can discount several later purchases: it reduces Coin costs for technologies and Wonders by 10%. The technology itself costs 100 Food and 100 Coin and takes 60 seconds, so one planned purchase may not repay the investment. It does not lower Food or Wood costs, and the discount does not replace the resources needed to start research. Compare the Coin savings across the upgrades you expect to complete, then research before those purchases; the Trading Post or Tambo on the Comanche settlement is the access point.
Reduce technology and Wonder Coin costs
Comanche Trade Language is an Exploration Age technology researched at a Trading Post or Tambo on a Comanche settlement. It costs 100 Food and 100 Coin, takes 60 seconds and reduces Coin costs for technologies and Wonders by 10%.
Research before a chain of purchases
The discount saves resources only on later technologies and Wonders that require Coin; it does not reduce unit costs. Research before a planned sequence of eligible purchases and ensure the settlement remains available. The long research time can be a poor fit when immediate military production is urgent.
