Research condition
Exploration Age at a Trading Post or Tambo on an Inuit settlement; cost: 200 Wood; research time: 30 seconds.
When to research
Research before a planned expansion that can use the extra Travois or before a movement-sensitive push involving the listed units. The speed bonus can help workers and construction wagons reposition, while the Qamutik receives a larger increase. Leave population room for the delivered unit and choose a safe site for the new Trading Post.
A delivery plus targeted mobility
The technology combines an immediate construction asset with several movement improvements. The Trading Post Travois can establish a new site, while faster Villagers and construction wagons make the approach less exposed. Qamutik movement improves by 10%, and the other listed units receive 5%; check the roster before expecting a benefit for another wagon or infantry type.
