Effect & research conditions

Research Lakota Lands at a Teepee for 250 Food, 250 Wood and 250 Coin; the research takes 10 seconds. The bonus extends the Teepee’s vision and the reach of its area effect by 40. Units in the affected area gain 10% speed, while Villagers gain 7.9%. Units outside the Teepee effect do not receive the speed bonus.

Research condition

Available to Lakota from the Exploration Age. Research it at Teepee.

When to research

Research this when your Teepees can cover the army or Villagers that need to move across the map. The extra effect range makes each Teepee’s support reach farther, and the speed bonus helps nearby forces rotate between a defense and a raid or stay within the support network as they advance. Place Teepees along useful routes and near the units that will benefit; researching the technology does not help forces operating beyond their area.

Teepee vision and movement

Lakota Lands is an Exploration Age Teepee technology. It costs 250 Food, 250 Wood and 250 Coin and takes 10 seconds. It increases Teepee line of sight and effect range by 40 and lets them improve nearby unit speed by 10%; Villagers receive a 7.9% increase.

Place Teepees where units operate

The upgrade rewards Teepees near units and workers that use their aura. Its three-resource cost is valuable when the structures can remain protected and the army will operate within range. It does not affect units outside the area.
