## Common Pitfalls
- Requires Mercators population tier before it can be built

- The Albion variant has lower maintenance costs compared to the Latium version (-6 gold, -4 Waders vs -16 gold, -8 Liberti)
- Consider pairing with specialists like Ironclad Distributor to reduce workforce and upkeep costs
