Trade Cart

Economic unit that generates gold by trading between markets.

Tactical Briefing

Commander, the Trade Cart is your infinite gold source. Set a trade route between two markets, and the cart generates gold per trip based on distance. Longer routes = more gold. In team games, trade with allies for maximum distance. In late game when gold mines deplete, Trade Carts become essential. Build 20-30 for sustainable gold income.

Strategic Analysis

Infinite gold generation through trade

  • Distance Matters: Gold per trip scales with distance. Trade with the farthest ally market or your own distant market.
  • Late Game Essential: When gold mines run out, trade carts are your only gold source. Start building them before depletion.
  • Protect Trade Lines: Enemies love to raid trade routes. Wall trade paths or patrol cavalry along them.

Warning: No combat ability. Raiders can destroy your entire trade line. Always protect your trade routes.
