🏁Age of Empires IV & Shared Similarities
- Same start as AoE2, 3 vils, one scout, one tc
- Sheeps, lumber jack, mill, mining camp, berries, farms, ... - all the same
- It's almost the exact same beginning as AoE2
- 4 Ages
- relics
- Tradecarts
- Spearman available in the first age
- More techs in first age
- Landmark building in each age - unique to each Civilization in AOE 4, you can choose between multiple. Example: Britons have a church to heal surrounding untis or a building to build longbows quicker - similiar to AoM gods system
- For the default victory you have to destroy all landmarks and the starting tc.
- Wonders are back
-You can capture holy sites with monks, if you have all it will be similiar to relic victories. similiar to CoH sector capture
-No word about classic relic victory
-Units on walls, you build "towers/canons?" in the walls with a limited shooting angle
-Buildings and walls are still freely buildable, streets and decoration are placed automatically to make the city look pretty
-Cancelled feature: production chain like Anno or the settlers but it was tested
- Civs still share mostly the same units
- Unit upgrades (barracks and blacksmith) exactly the same as AoE2 but stronger/more impact. Same for all Civs.
- You can hide units in the forest
- sea battles more complex
- unique units will have skills. longbows can build small palisade in front of them to counter cav, Mongol Khans can buff surrounding units
- 4 campaigns, normandy campaign is one
- stories will be presented with real life actors and pictures/videos
- Civilizations have unique look, including units (no more European looking spear for Mongols)
-No additional automation like automatic constant unit production
-Less villagers needed overall: bigger armies
- Art of War is back
- Dynamic tutorials, for example reminder to hunt your boar if you always forget it
- Build menu shows how many buildings of that type you already have
- Scouts can hunt
- Charge-attack for (some) Cavalry
8 Civilizations:
1- Britons (villagers have bows to attack enemy units)
2- Mongols (can pack and move the base, similiar to Company of Heroes UK)
3- Delhi Sultanate (elephants, rewards/boost for specific buildings next to each other)
4- Chinese (can build all landmarks, dont have to choose. If you have both you can unlock unique units after creating a dynasty. if you move to the next dynasty you lose your old one)
5- Vikings
6- Franks
7 & 8 are so far unknown
build menu shows how many buildings of that type you already have
