Can transform into most buildings available in your current age.
—In-game description

The Infrastructure Wagon is a unit in Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition. It can build most buildings available to the United States, except some special buildings like Town Centers, Ports, or Factories.

Overview[]

In Empire Wars, an Infrastructure Wagon named Empire Wars Wagon arrives with every shipment. It can build most buildings no matter which civilization is being played. Likewise, the Empire Wars Wagon also cannot build special buildings like Tribal Marketplaces, Strongholds, or Wonders.

Depending on which age the player starts the game in, they will receive one (Fortress Age) or two (Industrial Age and Imperial Age) Empire Wars Wagons at the start of the game.

Depending on the civilization it belongs to, it has a different visual appearance: it has the appearance of the Travois for the Haudenosaunee and Lakota; the Nobles' Hut Travois for the Aztecs; the Builder Travois for the Inca; the Castle Rickshaw for Asian civilizations; the Hausa Builder for African civilizations.
