The Chinese are all about their Dynasties. The English also have access to the Longbowmen, which are the civilization exclusive unit: they are the best archers with their long range and make for great early raids on the enemy coupled with the increased training speed for the Age 2 Landmark: Council Hall. The English Keeps allow players to train all units, therefore the player can set up Keeps as a forward base and quickly train an army to take the enemy by surprise. While their primary strength lies in defending, their early game unit production is also impressive. The special network of castles provides a small buff to buildings and units, allowing them to fire faster than the usual speed to further maintain a stronghold and discourage early raiders.

Adding to their defensive strength, they have a special alarm in place via Castles, Towers, and Keeps. The Landmarks for this civilization aid in the defense and taking them down is definitely one of the hardest feats to achieve. Contrary to other melee villagers in Age of Empires 4, the English villagers carry a bow with them to repel early invaders and make hunting very easy and safe. As a result, they don’t have to focus on hunting/fishing to boost their food economy. They are excellent in defense and they have cheaper farms than other civilizations. The English Civilization is one of the simplest civilizations to master in Age of Empires 4. In this beginner’s guide, we will be taking a look at all the civilizations and that should help players find their ideal civilization to take on enemy players. There are eight civilizations at the launch of the gamе: the Rus, English, Chinese, Delhi Sultanate, French, Mongols, Abbasid Dynasty, and Holy Roman Empire.

One of the first things that players will notice while getting into a multiplayer match is the ability to choose their civilization. While the single player campaigns are fun to play, most of the players like to play the multiplayer part of the game which presents the player with unprecedented challenges. The campaign aspect of the game offers several civilizations to explore and take players to a specific timeline to experience the exhilaration of taking on different conquests. Players can adopt different strategies, train special units and forge a legacy worth remembering in the game. For those who are unfamiliar with the Age of Empires franchise, the games allow players to delve into the intricacies of historical empire building and raising an army to defeat their foes. The nostalgia for the RTS fans returns after 16 years, as Age of Empires 4 is finally released on Steam and Xbox Game Pass.
