—Age of Empires IV description |
The High Trade House is an economic landmark available to the Rus in Age of Empires IV in the Feudal Age. It generates gold like a Hunting Cabin with the value increased by 400%. It spawns Deer every 60 seconds. Villagers can drop off Food at this building.
Special Ability[]
Like the Hunting Cabin, the High Trade house counts all trees within its aura radius, and generate an amount of gold dependent on the number of trees tagged. This amount is 4x that of a normal Hunting Cabin and similarly increases depending on the Bounty tier, but also similarly suffers from diminishing returns, where the more trees are tagged, the less gold each additional one generates. However, the High Trade house does not 'tag' any trees as belonging to it like Hunting Cabins do, meaning that Hunting Cabin radii can overlap that of the High Trade House with no penalty. Furthermore, the gold generation of the High Trade House does not count towards the Hunting Cabin maximum.
Additionally, the High Trade house spawns one Deer per minute, which can contribute towards the player's total bounty. It also acts as a food drop-off site, but cannot research any economic upgrades or create Scouts like a Hunting Cabin. The limit of Deer that can be created at a single time seems to be 9.
