Cost, time and bonus at every level
Baggage Trains runs to level 10, adding +1.2% to march_size and 78 power each time. Studying it out costs the four soft resources — the same amount of each — and takes 7m 29s for the final level alone. Gems are only ever the optional instant finish; the study itself is bought with what your fields already make.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | +1.2% | 78 | 12s | 3,000 | 1 |
| 2 | +2.4% | 156 | 18s | 4,200 | 1 |

Taken from nothing to level 10 that is 22m 3s of raw study and 209,400 of each of food, wood, stone and iron — 837,600 resources in total.
