—In-game description

The Military Rickshaw is a rickshaw in Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties that can only be obtained by the namesake technology sent from the Consulate by a Japanese player if they choose Japanese Isolation or by building the Torii Gates wonder to advance into the Commerce Age or Fortress Age. It builds a Barracks or Stable for free.

Overview

Since the Military Rickshaw does not require Villagers to construct the Barracks or Stable, it allows the player to save 200 wood and allows them to easily put up a military building anywhere, making the Military Rickshaw a very tactical building and good for the player's economy.
