[Brutal] Nature Hordes are INSANE in the early game - Age of Wonders 4 - Ep1

Age of Wonders 4 is a new magic based 4x game that has some elements of civilization as well as Master of Magic.

I'm actually so god damn hype for this now being an age of wonders 4 channel. The first series inspired me to buy the game and now I'm obsessed too.

[ruler]

This game probably has the most fun early aggressive style of any 4x game. Usually you hurt your economy but being able to simultaneously recruit units and build makes it feel so much better.

[TheZealo]

Okay, the amount of perfect auto-resolves points to this build being insane early game. Lets see how it plays later on.

Nature seems insane in every stage of the game. So many good spells and summons.

[Katastra_]

The Barb warriors Shield Bash is so underrated on a tier 1 shield unit. 90% base chance to stun and puts them in defence mode

[TheNatew]

Yeeesss!!! So glad you're continuing the series. Really hope these are popular enough for you to keep nursing this addiction! 🙏

[TimSedai]

I bought this yesterday and love tf out of it as it reminds me of Civ meets Heroes of Might and Magic but I could really use a beginners/factions vid if you're feeling up to the task. Fecker is a touch overwhelming you know?

[talalal-turki]

more age of wonders please! also would love to see u talk through ur thought process when designing the faction.

[NexusNoxCS]

Yay, more AoW4! I'm pretty sure all of us will be voting for more of that game for a long while now!

[cavalyn]

I've been using Hearty a lot lately - feels very strong when you consider a lot of early units are between 60-90hp, and that extra 10hp goes a long way. It feels a lot more impactful than most of the others. On the other hand I used to go defensive tactics for mind trait, but now am in love with swarm tactics. Never seen so many crits w/o using specific tomes!

[jonathanholdridge]

Just finished the last series and was like, ahh-I hope he starts another series of it…

[fabnasio]

Excited that this is becoming an AoW4 channel, I could watch these videos forever

[webbowser]

Man, that's one heck of a combo you've managed to come up with there. Sheeeesh.

[PedroFerreira-nejv]

YES! I too have been fixated with Red/Green swarms in the game(already won 5 games with them) because they looked easy to play and it’s insane how competent they are even after I learned how to play the game more, it truly is throughout ridiculous in power specially if you know what you are doing so I’m excited to see what you do with them!!

[SirCorrino]

The vines are stupid OP. Just chain-casting those you can take on 3 stacks with 1 and just focus down a few units at a time. Even better if you have a Dark affinity so you get combat casting points every time a vine dies...

[koonbeast]

the slow movement from the greaves doesn't reduce your world movement, so it's the perfect artifact for staff wielders because they're ranged with no mount anyway.
sprint is useful because you can move one tile and still make 3 attacks with the skirmisher. the sprint is especially useful after moving toward an enemy until you're one tile away from melee, hitting them with range, using your hero to give them their action points back, then sprint up to hit them 3 times. also you can use the one tile movement to reposition into a flank if you're at their front side, avoiding any retaliation while also hitting 3 times.

[Adriftadept]

So glad you’re doing more of this game!!!

[celt]

Mob rules! It's nice to see a horde comp played well! I see a lot of folks trying to play chaos/spawnkin exactly how they'd run any other empire (stacking up tier 2 and 3 units asap) and end up going broke and losing a bunch of guys. Not to mention -that fire spell can do enormous damage with a big enough peasant mob to bolster the effect (15 tier 1's =45 damage / 22 splash). Anyway, gj, always entertaining

[benabaxter]

One thing I look forward to is seeing your previous runs as foes or allies. Potato Cinematic Universe.

[dhruvagrawal]

This was absolutely wonderful to watch. As someone, who has just started playing the game, I can't tell you how many things I learned from 1 single video, you get a follow and sub just for that. I hope you keep making these specially considering that Paradox released the roadmap of 4 DLCs already.
