Effect & research conditions
Research at a Town Center for 400 Food and 200 Coin; it takes 30 seconds. After completion, each qualifying shipment by another player can provide the listed 300 of each resource through the shipment-tax effect. Contraband is a conditional multiplayer income source, not an immediate crate on research.
Research condition
Poles after Revolution to Duchy of Warsaw; Town Center; requires Kraków Republic Home City Card; 400 Food · 200 Coin; 30 seconds.
When to research
After the Kraków Republic card enables the Duchy of Warsaw route, use Contraband to collect its 300 Food, 300 Wood and 300 Coin shipment tax at the Town Center. The 30-second, 400-Food and 200-Coin research is a Revolution investment, not an opening economy. Time it when shipments can be taxed and the resources can fund the post-revolution force.
Duchy of Warsaw shipment-tax income
Contraband is a Revolution technology for the Duchy of Warsaw at the Town Center, requiring the Kraków Republic Home City Card. It costs 400 Food and 200 Coin and takes 30 seconds. It enables shipment tax at Town Centers and adds 300 Food, 300 Wood and 300 Coin to the tax.
Maintain shipment flow
The added resources come through shipment tax, so the effect depends on receiving eligible shipments after research. Keep Town Centers safe and plan card deliveries that will trigger the tax. Contraband is a specialized route feature and does not directly increase ordinary Market gathering.
