    Hello everyone and welcome to Age of Wonders 4, Archaon the Everchosen has made landfall in the Lands of Eo to Chosen Destroyer everyone and everything! If you'd like to jump to creating Archaon and his faction, go to 4:38; if you'd like to hop straight in to the campaign, skip ahead to 11:20. This will be my first time playing a Chosen Destroyer, which is arguably the strangest Society Trait, but I'm sure nothing could possibly go wrong. I hope you enjoy some of the extra edits and thanks for watching!

      wanted to let you know for the future since I think it'll help. You don't have to keep a unit or even an army on a city for it to be razed. once you click it you are free to move around.

      @@skullreaper7102 This is true! But Razing can be canceled if someone else walks on top of its primary tile, so I tend to keep something around just incase. In the instance of Slampit, I also want to clear the City Ruins to build a work camp for the Magical Material, which will require someone there.

      Tomb Kings - Human High and/or Dark (Wightborne Major Transformation)
      Vampire Coast - Human Reavers (Wightborne Major Transformation)
      Norsca - Human Barbarian or Mammoth Primal (generic) or other Primal based on Chaos God
      Chaos Undivided - Human Dark (Infernal Fiend Major Transformation)
      Mono-Gods - Eldritch Sovereign leader of Barbarian Culture or Mystic Culture for Tzeentch
      Dawi - Dwarf Industrious or Reavers
      Dawi-Zharr - Dwarf Reavers (Infernal Fiend Major Transformation)
      Cathay - Humans Oathsworn of Harmony or Righteousness
      Cathayan Monkey Warriors - Simian Oathsworn of Strife or Righteousness
      Kislev - Human Reavers
      Lizardmen - Lizardkin Crocodile Primal, Barbarian, or Feudal
      Skaven - Ratkin Feudal, Barbarian, or Primal Ash Sabertooth for generic, Mystic (Clan Grey Seer), Dark (any Warlord Clan), Oathsworn of Strife (Clan Eshin), Reaver (Clan Skryre)

For example, Tilea was renowned for its wealth and mercenaries (most famously the Dogs of War), so their playstyle would be involve integrating other cultures, accepting bounties, and negotiating with other Godir. The new Vigilante Knights society trait fits them perfectly.
      On the other hand, the Arabyan Kingdoms were far more insulated and had either apathetic, strictly business, or even hostile relationships with other Human territories. They would want to be played more aggressively by migrating cities and establishing a lot of Vassals under their iron fist, or even as a Hermit Kingdom of sorts.
