Hello, it is my first strategy game ever played, i really like fantasy characters elves and setting in which game is displayed. I am still in the first beggining scenario, 8 hours into game and really addicted. IT IS somehow special and intriguing for me. I have to learn new mechanics and Discover new genre of videogames
Wait, one game takes 12 hours? I've looked at quite a few videos, and plan to buy it soon (dont have time to play it atm). But a single game takes 12 hours? I thought it was quite a fast game, as I've seen there is a maximum of like 150 turns or something
@@Ascasc1980 no man, you can play it a lot faster, about 4hrs for me on a magic victory, it all depends on your pace and what you want to do, but if you don't use the auto resolve at all, then you probably can rack up those hours pretty quickly, the auto resolver is a huge time saver in that regard, now, the combat is a great source of fun in this game as well
@@Ascasc1980 thats actually similar to my playthrough of the beginner map. I like to take my time and take over large parts of the map and generally move slowly. The game allows for that type of play along going as quickly and optimally as possible.
@@Ascasc1980 It can take that long if you're slow going and don't auto resolve combats as others mentioned. I realized I could just finish the training map quickly by making an ally of one AI and then building 3 good stacks of armies and bum rushing the other AI, which i could have done way earlier had I realized.
I agree, I'd like an in-depth video on it. The only thing I've seen so far that helps is nature affinity skill tree. It's like the 2nd or 3rd that gives +15hp per turn when in friendly domain. And there's a chaos affinity skill that heals units +20hp when pillaging a province.
@@iBringTheRain24 There's also an artifact, "horn of plenty", there's a regen ring for heroes, the wonder from this video, and one of liquid magic resources.
Really well done. very focused on significant gameplay features and how they work. with a well structured format and a final conclusion, this is one of the most well produced tips videos i've come across as far as I can recall.
**Little things i've learned after 40 hours of playtime:** - Scouts are all unique, Barb scouts can build outposts, Dark scouts have baked in stealth - The mount racial changes some units into mounted units - Most AI will agree to vassalge if you siege down their capital - Killing a multitude of tier 1 units all in one round will break enemy morale and instantly win a fight - Most wonder fights will come up as hard or impossible, but they are balanced to be done at your level and you should /try/ them before just walking away - You can build build teleporters on outpost, allowing you to instantly invade a nation on the other side of the map from your home base if you want
Could you maybe do a video on some basic battle mechanics. Most things I guess are explained if you read the tooltips but there are some where you do not have a direct tooltip. What usually catches me off guard is when an ability ends a units turn. Attacking being the obvious one but also some buffs or heals from support units seem to work the same way. It's probably explained somewhere but if it was then at least I have missed it, so others may have also done so. Another thing is when you are allowed to cast spells. I haven't seen anything in the UI, similar to the way it shows casting points, which shows on what turns you are allowed to use them. Again, it was probably explained somewhere but if so I missed it. I'm betting there are other similar things which unlike for example 'flanking' do not have readily accessible tooltips explaining them.
Certain special buildings give bonuses if you have adjacent farms/foresters/quarrying etc. Find out what your special buildings are so you can plan accordingly.
@@audiogarden21 Those special buildings also let you put, say, a conduit, where normally you couldn't. Which means you now have access to the buildings that require those tile improvements. Case in point: the Dark Culture can build Dark Forge (which counts as a mine) on any tile, which then allows the construction of a mint. So no Dark Culture is going to miss out on a mint, regardless of local tiles.
Thanks for another great video. I'm enjoying the game that I picked up yesterday (I have all of them). This one is gorgeous! I had issues going to bed on time last night...Just one more turn...what's over there??? ;) I have two GPU cards in my PC. This game auto selected the lower end card. I had to subscribe to the Steam beta branch to have the GPU selection enabled which resolved the issue. Quite strange. I play a ton of games and have never had one select the lesser (and secondary - device 1) card. Stability seems fine on Windows 11, recent GPU drivers, and this unusual GPU setup (two physical Nvidia GPUs). I haven't subscribed to any mods yet as I wanted to ensure the game was stable before doing so.
Another thing you’ll want to keep an eye on, is the inherent/passive bonus each tome gives. Often these include special hero traits you and your heroes can choose when leveling up.
One think i dont like, there no way to stop developing tomes at ter 5. So you play a long game, and you end up unlocking tomes that you dont want for your setup.
True, but it is usually because you are supposed to finish the game by this time. But for some reason your haven't. Usually it's because people delay the final battle or don't focus on the victory conditions
@@Delt4_Cr4wfish That's actually a good point. I personally prefer only short playthroughs with 2-4 participants. Of course it's a matter of preference, but I don't feel the game is well designed for long sessions. From my experience, I rarely reached tom 5 and usually it was 1 spell, or summon that I used once at most. That's why I liked it.
@Max Shaian ya some stuff definitely needs to be taken back to the drawing board for people that play long games. I have a large number of hours playing civ 5 with my friends. We always make it to the last teck.
On games with less rulers you can get a domination victory very easy because you don't need to kill allies, so ally with all but one faction, kill them, and you win. But for bigger maps yeah magic tends to be the best unless you go for a very wide build where you can get an expansion victory sooner.
really depends tho, i find it pretty easy to go for allied victory's or conquest. The magic one can get anoying the moment you need to do the 15 turns of protecting your seed/root etc and alot of other factions will declare war and ofc the invading units that spawn. If you dont have a decent army at that moment you are not gonna win.
Depends, expansion might be easier to achieve (depending on what you choose as start class). But both of them spawn invading force and AI tends to take this to it's own advantage, of course if you prepared well, then it's a shortcut to victory, which is why I disable magic and expansion by default and keep only Might and Score.
@@leflyxdvd also, for reference, I had a campaign where I had allied with every free city, defeated 2 of 3 enemy rulers, and taken all 3 rulers’ territories. The 3rd ruler was Dark culture, and hid from me with concealment, so I went for an Expansion Victory. Even with no “enemies” left on the map, the game will still spawn in Partisans, so don’t waste time positioning your defenses around the Beacons or Seeds.
Some cases u can’t. I realized that with chosen destroyers or mega cities map effect you can’t build the buildings cause u can’t have more then one city so u have to go with another win condition
Until now I just sent troops I wanted to dismiss to fight a hopeless battle 😅. Do you know of a way to remove an annexed tile without destroying my entire city?
I made myself an elf race that I wanted to lean into frost and undead magic. Basically, play on a desert world and then mess everything up with frost landscapes. It's not turn 80 and I haven't finished the research for that spell yet. Damn.
Also a note on Imperium gain. some magic materials give Imperium, also the tier 3 order spell "Covenant of the Faith" lets you get Imperium from Vassalized Free cities, 5 Imperium for 6 mana upkeep. bargain :)
I still can’t figure out how to build an outpost. Infuriating. I click on my hero, there is a button to show suitable land plots for outposts, literally everything is green, I go to any of them, no button or prompt or anything. I did have it pop up once randomly, I clicked away from it because I wanted to clear a tile first, and gone forever, no more prompt again. Encyclopedia is worthless. What are the rules and how do you reliably build them?
What am I missing here... Imperium seems just like cosmite from Plantfall. The Pantheon in AOW4 is VERY similar to Galactic Empire mode in Planetfall. There are many such reskins of Planetfall things in AOW4. Please, someone enlighten me. Thanks.
Units don't upgrade usually, this isn't Civ where you research directly superior versions of units, the only upgrades are your enchantments and racial transformations, neither of which can completely change a unit class to my knowledge, edit: except the feudal spearmen that one does, apparently a couple others it's listed on the unit effects
Only few units have this ability, usually on their 4th rank, the feudal tier 1 spearman indeed have that, as you observed. Some of the others are spider hatchling or hell puppy.
On my 3rd game now (everything set to Medium/Standard), and I found research goes way too fast for my taste. With just 4 cities, I got to tier 5 pretty quickly. After that, I eventually just ignored researching anything, and not really building anything that does Knowledge. No feeling of accomplishment with Tomes for me. Just a shoulder shrug it happened so easy and fast.
true as long as you dont have to focus on economy that is. On medium you can rush research easy peasy, but on harder maps or witrh harder diffivultiy its not that easy anymore. As you have to spend more ressources more quickly, so not as much room for research. and its not just 4 cities, there is no reason that you need much more, maybe 5 with some builds. Later its cost way to much to raise youre cap and you are so far into the game it takes to long toi get the city to a point that the investment takes shape. So vassals are the way to go anyway - as the build up themselfes and share the benefits. Or just burn down all the others ^^.
How far should one spread cities out to maximize tile useage? How does one cleverly progress through the unit tiers to keep up with the game? On that note, is there a way to view the unit roster and what is yet to be unlocked?
you don't want to spread your cities out too far from each other since they'll be harder to defend that way. use outposts for out of the way claims on wonders and stuff. it's hard to know exactly how much your keeping up with the other factions, but in the diplomacy tab, you can hover over relations and look if you have a bigger army, etc than someone. i think the quest tab with the different victory conditions shows your ranking out of all faction too. you can also use a scout to just scout out other factions and see how big they're getting. also, the encyclopedia shows all units in the game. it's the "i" at the top right next to the gear icon
Thanks for the disband tip. I had already found it on my own, but it was not super obvious, so I am sure that's going to help some folks. Upkeep costs can be killer and dropping lower level units is a good idea. I'd love to see an analysis of unit experience and its effects. I have found it makes a big difference. So much so that I think the order spell Ascended Warriors which gives every non-Hero unit in an army a permanent +1 experience level to be the most useful spell in the game.
The disband is sooo useful, specially because there are some recruitment events that you can't even say no.... like, no I don't want a frigging DIRE PENGUIN in my T4 army.
Can someone explain "race transformations" Are they permenant? is it only for units currently on the map? and if not, why dont they appear under active spells?
They are permanent for the particular race you cast them on (note this means any other race on the map will need it cast on them separately). Second answer: its for any units of that race on the map and any made thereafter. They don't appear in active spells because there is no upkeep cost. You've altered the races "genetics", they will carry on the transformations with their own life force, so to speak.
@@Smithers322 Thx, thats kind of what what I assumed. It just seems a bit ilogical that it looks like it can be re-cast, eventhough other spells that will have no effect are "greyed" out. Anyway, again thx for the answer.
also if you don't really like the visual transformations, you can install a small mod from workshop that lets you cast 'no transform' version of those spells if you want. You get the benefit without changing your race into hairy gold skinned walking plants with goat hooves.
Is there any way to start a game with a stronger army but no city? I remember in AoW3 there was an option to start without a city and gain one via city state absorption or conquering. Any idea if it's possible in AoW4?
What's the point in prioritizing spells that cost a single turn to research if you still need to research all the spells in the tome to get to the next tome?
The expansion section of the guide is still suboptimal as have your previous ones. You fail to mention, for example, that building a farm on a river tile gives you a +2 food yield that you can't access if you build anything else. You also don't mention that the game is very friendly in this stuff by enlarging the size of the icons of the province improvements that would give you more yields. And again: no mention of the economic map mode for future planning.
I've only put about 4 hours in on my first playthrough, but I find a lot of the mechanics of the game not very intuitive and it's very frustrating. Not sure this game is going to make it in the long run.

no, once you are done with getting 2 of a tier, you cant go back for more. Which I'm hoping Triumph gives us an opportunity to change.
