Galata Tower District
Galata Tower District is a Commerce Age Ottoman Mosque technology. It raises the Yörük train limit by 20 and unlocks Topkapi as a follow-up research option, expanding the roster’s capacity to field these units.

Effect & research conditions
The research costs 100 Coin and takes 15 seconds. It affects the Yörük train limit only; it does not add 20 population space or improve every Ottoman unit. Topkapi becomes available after this technology, so the research also starts the Mosque’s follow-up path. Check the current limit and the unit’s population cost before deciding how much army capacity is available.
Research condition
Available to Ottomans from the Commerce Age. Research it at Mosque.
When to research
Complete Galata Tower District before attempting to train beyond the previous Yörük limit, and only when the army plan uses enough Yörüks to justify the capacity. The low cost and short research time can make it convenient, but Coin may be needed for military production. If pursuing Topkapi, include its follow-up cost and timing in the plan.
Limit increase versus unit strength
Galata Tower District expands how many Yörüks can be trained; it does not improve their hit points, attack or speed. The distinction matters when deciding whether the Mosque investment answers a current problem. If the army lacks capacity, the limit is useful; if it already has room but loses fights, a combat upgrade or supporting unit may be better. Researching it also opens the route to Topkapi, so value it as part of the Ottoman progression.
