    I just want to clarify that you can have more heroes early on without needing additional cities. The limit is a "soft cap", and going over it increases recruitment cost and upkeep cost of said hero. If you feel your economy can handle it or otherwise need the additional hero(high level heroes do provide permanent Affinity through their level 5, 10, 15 and 20 skills, for instance), then go for it.
    I got an early extra hero because his special trait was a permanent +3 to Materium Affinity.

    Sorry if I missed it in the video, but what’s the default max province expansion range of a city? I saw that there was a Empire Development option in the Nature affinity branch to increase it by +2.

      @fendelphi Год назад +1

      I believe it is 2. Various buildings(those that upgrade the "tier" of the city) increases this by +1.

    Does not forgiving a weakness impact relation? For example: A friendly empire trespasses and later on offers to pay gold to buy off the grievance. If you refuse the gold does it impact your relation with that friendly empire?

    • @metalhev3989
      @metalhev3989 Год назад

      I think so, but some empires will actually dislike/like you more if you forgive the transgressions. Evil agressive empires will think you're a pussy if you're used to forgiving grievances, and you'll lose relations with them.

    I've been loving this game. My only issue (aside from the crashes which are mainly avoidable for me at least) is the tutorial. I always hated Planetfall and AoW3's tutorials because they were SO hand holdy, but having played 4... I do wish it was a bit more hand holding. I found myself screwing up a lot because I missed opening a menu, or stepping on a space to trigger a tutorial. Ended up having to restart because I just screwed things up so much.
    Though that's also because I just goofed around with the tomes and was not building optimally in even teh slightest way.

AoW3 I think did it pretty well, some ability to explore around but you were still corridored in the right direction. Also included an actual story with characters to help lead you along, something 4 is sadly missing.

    What does the option Denounce do? The one that costs 100 Mana? It sais verbal warning when i hover over it and i tried to use it to warn NPC rulers not to ignore my province claims but those stupid orange cat and green gnome always travel across the entire map and build an outpost 4 provinces from my throne city at the start of the game. Not only does that force me into a war but i also get punishments for expanding my throne city because it sais i ignored claims of other rulers because of their outpost.

    10:30 isn't this an objective mistake? The AI has you rivaled, you have committed 2 grievances against it, and you then forgave the one grievance they did to you... So now you are quite unjustified to declare a war on them since they haven't aggravated you, but they can justifiably declare war on you because you have 2 unresolved grievances to none. That seemed like a major strategical mishap.

    • @Inightshade1
      @Inightshade1 Год назад +5

      You want war, that is the premise here.
      [In the shown scenario] If you declare, you are unjustified, so you have penalties. But a defensive war is always "just" (no bonuses on your end but no penalties either). If you forgive the grievance, the AI is more likely to declare war, giving the conflict you desire for free. If you manage to sell the grievance, you've basically just gotten paid to have the war you desired.

      A lot of Strategy games have poor PC ports but AOW is pretty simple in terms of controls so it isn't that bad. I'd say to pick your favorite platform, it should work fine on either.

    Every game youtubers and their dog are posting let's plays of AoW4 and I'm shocked PE has only released a few guides.
    I also miss the free city garrison units of Planetfall. While I like seeing proper siege maps with walls and etc, having to camp actual units in cities like AoW3 feels like a step backwards.

  • @vaettra1589
    @vaettra1589 Год назад

    So the game came out yesterday and I fired up the launcher. To my disappointment there is no campaign in there. The Necromancer campaign for Age of Wonders 3 was great and got you immersed into the world. The 'realms' of AoW4 just feels like bubbles. I guess the 'story' is to fight off the returning Wizard Kings but at least early on there's no sense of a coherent world-building that draws you in. Granted, I've only played 2-3 hours.
