Effect & research conditions
The research costs 250 Wood and 250 Coin and takes 60 seconds. The effect applies to Ranged Infantry damage, not to melee attacks, siege attacks or every Haudenosaunee unit. The settlement site and its Trading Post or Tambo must be available for the research.
Research condition
Exploration Age; Trading Post or Tambo on a Haudenosaunee settlement. Cost: 250 Wood and 250 Coin; research time: 60 seconds.
When to research
Research before a sustained fight when Ranged Infantry form a meaningful share of the army and the settlement can be protected during the one-minute timer. If the army needs immediate units or relies on melee and siege roles, the research may not change the next engagement enough to justify the cost.
The bonus is limited to ranged damage
Haudenosaunee Lacrosse raises Ranged Infantry damage by 10%. It does not improve Hand Infantry, siege attacks or units outside the affected class. Use the army composition to judge its value: several ranged units firing through a sustained engagement can benefit repeatedly, while a small ranged contingent or a melee-focused force will see less return.
A long settlement research
The technology costs 250 Wood and 250 Coin and takes 60 seconds at a Trading Post or Tambo on a Haudenosaunee settlement. Secure the site and begin the research before the planned engagement. If the army needs reinforcements immediately, compare the one-minute delay with producing units now; the upgrade does not replace the need for a screen or counter units.
