Effect & research conditions

Research at a Trading Post or Tambo on a Huron settlement for 225 Wood and 225 Coin; it takes 60 seconds. The increase triples the listed train limit from 10 to 30. Afterward, Mantlets still need to be produced separately and require population.

Research condition

Exploration Age; Trading Post or Tambo on a Huron settlement; 225 Wood · 225 Coin; 60 seconds; Huron Mantlet limit 10 → 30.

When to research

Research before the army needs more Huron Mantlets than the current train limit allows. The 60-second upgrade raises that cap to three times its original value but does not deliver any Mantlets, so reserve population and resources for production afterward. Protect the Huron site through the research window; skip the upgrade if the siege unit is not part of the plan.

Increase the Huron Mantlet limit

Huron Sun Ceremony is an Exploration Age technology at a Trading Post or Tambo on a Huron settlement. It costs 225 Wood and 225 Coin, takes 60 seconds and increases the Huron Mantlet train limit by 200%, tripling the original limit.

Unlock the higher cap before training

Research when the army needs more Huron Mantlets than the existing limit allows. The upgrade does not deliver Mantlets, so it must be followed by unit production and enough population. Keep the Huron settlement secure during the long research.
