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! Patch 1.3: store.steampowered.com/news/app/1669000/view/3888358008432632197?l=english
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.
I think archon should be able to use a lance cause his regiment of renwon was chaos night unit with spears and lore wise it would fit him more cause a lot of his fight are on his legendary sharpshooting mount where he charging right to them with his spear
Huh, that feels like it's unintended, but it certainly would've been fitting for the Three Eyed King. That said, the new axe+shield opens up another stacking synergy that I'm interested in testing out. 😈
@@Fableheim I think it is intentional, those are two different abilities but with the same effect and name, they are both listed under hero's abilities, basically it would nullify either the effect ot the sword or the mount, which wouldn't be logical, so only accaptable outcome is that both work together.
I’m glad they decided to give beards to Dragoons and Berserkers. Kinda honored that they agreed with my mod enough to change it. Unfortunately still a lot of Dwarf units that end up beardless but there’s another mod that existed before my one that sorts them out. 😅
Dwarf cavalry being beardless only shows that only the deeply shunned and shameless lower class dwarf are punished to be cavalry... a very disrespected position in a dwarf army... dwarf rather would have no cav at all...
About Infestations, if you put your units in their territory, the patrolling army will attack you, if you far enough, you can fight wandering and guarding stacks separately.
Excited for Lord of the End time run! Love that you meet Blint already 😂 😂 😂, you guys are meant to be in all universes. In the battles that u need a lil retry you can say it's a Tzeentch fate weaver premonition type gift! Lol And Ikit too 🙌🐀 👏
When I saw Ikit Claw's name show up I got so excited. One of my favorite Skaven lords was gonna have a role! Then his picture showed up and when I saw a anime girl version of Ikit Claw... I think a piece of my soul died. I didn't need to see that Fable.
I like how you made Blint a running meme on this channel. No matter which world you're replicating, we can be sure everyone's faborite underdog will be there.
Lore reason for Styrkaar to get everything unusual for him, considering that he worships Slaanesh, is trying something new {because he got bored}, or Fetish {he might enjoy torment people with different elements}. He could be the Embodiment of "Joke's on you, I'm into that shit!" PS: I remembered of this "Mage & Demon Queen" the friend of MC is into Snake Ladies in Stockings.
1:07:18 - Goddammit Fable!!! Had my family beside me when that showned on my phone. Had to make a whole essay to defuse the situation.... Damm you and Slaneesh 😱😭
Hahahaha, you know I had considered that as a possibility when I put that in there, but I thought it was too funny to not include. I hope the situation was defused well.
@@romulofriederichs5467 Hahaha, the funny story behind it is that the suggestive fanart was one of the first things that popped up when I searched Ikit, so I thought it would be funny to include in his introduction given its extreme contrast to his actual appearance. It won't be appearing again. This playthrough. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I'm going to copy these starting culture traits for my next playthrough, looks fun... probably on a medium size map too so a tier 1 rush could get a cc ity or two
Can't remember what i voted for in the poll but I was expecting Everchosen :) looking forward to it. I've been watching your playthroughs since I got the game, learning a lot. Thanks a bunch
I know I am too late for this but the Grarg Orcs are actually very much into slavery which made them very rich if frowned upon by other Orcs due to lack of honor - you never encounter them in CoE so this is something you cannot learn there.
Hey man always enjoyed your age of wonders 4 runs. I haven't played since release because the AI was hot trash. But I hear tell it's gotten better. It just used to be so passive it wasn't fun. But I think now that it's had time to cook in the oven perhaps it's not as bad and I should give it another try. Any ways great video as usual. Love the way you build charachters.
The AI is certainly more active on the overworld than it was in the past, so it's a good time to try it out again! The battle AI has improved as well, but it still has funny moments.
The word inveigled is pronounced IN-VAY-GULLED & it means "to persuade someone to do something by means of flattery or deception". It's a word I've only ever come across a few times & never knew how to pronounce it, so you stumbling over the word by leaving the "g" silent instead of pronunciating it, like I've always done while reading it in my head, motivated me enough to look it up 😅 Edit: typos
@Fableheim don't mention it, mate! I find vocabulary fascinating. One can never have too many words to color one's language with 😄 Keep up the good work, btw! Very much enjoy your content
45:56 - You have 'Hero resurgence' probably on - had to be in the map setup before You've started the game. So after won battle - all Heroes are back on the victory side.
Hero Resurgence is only enabled for Auto-Combats in the settings at 3:57, but there is a setting beneath it about Defeated Heroes set to Winner. I'll have to take a look at it for next series -- thanks!
@@Fableheim when you got into the Forbidden Shrine, you did auto combat first, then played it manual. Maybe there's a bug by which the game considers you played auto combat (and therefore The Everchosen was resurrected as specified in the realm setup) when you click on it, even if you play the actual combat aftewards. Or maybe it was just the Chaos Gods, as you foretold.
@@S_e_r_c_h_u Ohhh, that's actually a very likely interaction! I'll try to remember it for the future, in case the situation repeats itself. For now, the Chaos Gods can have the credit.
I thought when you go into wonders your leader gains Expedition leader which means they're always resurrected if atleast one other unit survived and you win the fight
I could see it working as an incredibly hostile isolationist faction. From a functionality perspective, I believe Hermit Kingdoms affects every city that doesn't share a border with another player, so you would benefit from being able to create new cities.
I had idea: Barbarian Felines with poisonous trait and Demonic transformation, the name of the race either Manticores, or Scorpicores Not saying that you need to create them, just pointing out that you can try to create some races based of Mythological creatures, there aren't many options currently, next DLC should help.
I heavily debated not including Gor in this playthrough, because his description is basically word-for-word what we know about the Primal Culture. Maybe he'll have to make a return.
*thinks back to all of the times I've brutally slaughtered and/or enslaved Blint after turning him in to a reoccurring meme character* You're absolutely correct, but I'm not sure what it could be. >:3
31:50 I didn’t understand why you took Seafaring. The unmodded Land map doesn’t have any water on the overland map, because it has a parameter in the random map generator that transforms all water into mountains.
Sorry, I didn't explain my reasoning. I picked Seafaring to traverse the underground waterways. At the time, I was thinking about some overly ambitious offense against Blint using what I had found at 26:17.
The mod is surprisingly well balanced, and the AI does use the modded units! I think the only complaint that one would have is that the mod fills in the weaknesses of Cultures, making them slightly more homogenous. That and I'm pretty sure Reavers aren't included yet.
Ianna could have Slaver Trait, as breaking the will of the enemy and brainwashing them, so they follow her. As for Magic Tomes, you need to handpick those that affect morale in some way, or affect Relationship in some way, it would be the mix of different affinities, don't forget about Nymphs and those Flying Fishes. You can't make AI Faction with such parameters, but, you can try to roleplay as this kind of character.
@@Fableheim Faction could end being strong, but, it'll definitely will be a process to not make a mess of the faction. Maybe the Forth DLC can help, or maybe we'll get something helpful in the Third one, there is mentioning of Fey, currently it's only speculation.
@@Erligan I expect the fourth DLC to be more about the many Astral creatures and manipulating the void that created them. Fae in the next DLC is certainly an idea, but I'm kind of expecting more wildshape/lycanthropy stuff.

I checked Tyrant's Sword and Shield, with Nightmare mounts, the Aura was triggered TWO times, so apparently it works.
Huh, that feels like it's unintended, but it certainly would've been fitting for the Three Eyed King. That said, the new axe+shield opens up another stacking synergy that I'm interested in testing out. 😈
@@Fableheim Axe and Shield good for Crit chance.

Archaeon is going for a walk…a VERY enthusiastic walk…
Unfortunately, no big tiddy police girls in this series. XD
@@Fableheim No one to hold him back then 😈
When Hope is gone

Thank you for your temporary services! (:
Sounds like there are yet Grudges to be settled.

@@g0lgrim1 Pump those Dwarven legs!
About Infestations, if you put your units in their territory, the patrolling army will attack you, if you far enough, you can fight wandering and guarding stacks separately.
That's a good point! Although that only works once the Infestation is awake, right?
@@Fableheim Yes, this helps to avoid fights with multiple stacks of bandits, helpful on High and Brutal.
Always looking forward to the compelling narrative and the interesting stories you setup and play through.
Excited for Lord of the End time run!
Love that you meet Blint already 😂 😂 😂, you guys are meant to be in all universes. In the battles that u need a lil retry you can say it's a Tzeentch fate weaver premonition type gift! Lol And Ikit too 🙌🐀 👏
Tzeentch giveth the gift of second chances, Tzeentch taketh peace of mind by plopping Blint right next to me.
I sure hope Grimgor will show his ugly mug. His bromance-rivalry with Archaon is legendary.
I debated including Grimgor, but Blint has so far been the only repeating face throughout my various series. I'm sure one day that will change. (:
When I saw Ikit Claw's name show up I got so excited. One of my favorite Skaven lords was gonna have a role! Then his picture showed up and when I saw a anime girl version of Ikit Claw... I think a piece of my soul died. I didn't need to see that Fable.
When I googled his name, that was one of the first pictures that showed up. I felt that if I saw it, everyone else needed to see it too. XD

1:38:28 Hahaha! Blint is a fat Skaven, confirmed. :P
If only I could forget he existed like the average Empire citizen forgot Skaven existed.

Thanks for filling in that blank!
Perfectionist artisans makes perfect sense to me. After all, the Slaaneshi would not let anyone else be the architects!
The Daemonette statues *must* be perfect, after all!
Whoever drew that "Skaven" needs more than one bonk.
They need all of the cells in horny jail.
Riding flaming horses must be mightily inconvenient for all parties involved...
But it is incredibly intimidating! :D

This one's going to be something special! It may not be in the good way, but I'll do my utmost to at least make it entertaining.
And that's all i ever want! I really was excited for a moment when it looked like Blint was directly beneath you 😂

A shame my instincts were off on that one, but I'm glad that I wasn't alone. Thanks for teaching me a new word! (:

Hey there! Blinty boy digging throught the ground so fancy free
His rapid expansionism is a little concerning...
Mechanically, I could see Hermit Kingdom working with Chosen Destroyers. Wouldn't fit with the lore though.
I could see it working as an incredibly hostile isolationist faction. From a functionality perspective, I believe Hermit Kingdoms affects every city that doesn't share a border with another player, so you would benefit from being able to create new cities.

Yria is liked by some people because of her personality and that personality is clipping thru her dress.
Lmaoooo, true! I'm sure some people like that she's basically the only goody goody two-shoes in Conquest of Eo.
is the mod that gives more units balanced? and do the ai use them?
