Learn how to build the Butcher in Anno 1404, its cost of 100 Coins, 6 Wood, 2 Stone, 2 Iron, and requirements.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Build the Butcher. It has a size of 2x2 tiles.
  2. 2
    Place the Butcher near a Pig Farm for optimal Pork conversion. It can also receive Pork from market wagons, but this is slower.
  3. 3
    For maximum generation, ensure 2 Pig Farms are within the Butcher's influence area.
  4. 4
    Note that the Butcher, unlike the Stonemason, requires direct road access to collect Pork and will not collect from adjacent tiles without a road connection.
Tips
  • Building the Butcher near its Pig Farms is crucial for efficient Pork conversion.
  • The Butcher refuses to leave the roads to get the Pork, similar to other non-mine resource generators.
  • Setting up efficient logistics for the Butcher can lead to substantial food generation.

Details:
