Army Control and Micro Guide for Age of Empires 4

[@joeselles4043]

I’m just super thankful to have an ottoman player that posts quality videos on the regular. I feel like their build order and timings are significantly different than other civs so to learn from their prospective has been great

Kinda a random thought but I'd play a practice skirm with you just so you can like actively playout mock scenario? I make this unit you explain to your viewers. And I get to learn 🙌 and play dummy. 😅

(see reply below): ~~im pretty noob getting into this game but I think siege doesn't affect army speed anymore even in the same control group (i know it did at launch i played briefly then). but infantry still move at slowest in control group. I can't test it now maybe i'm wrong. either way i'm sure you still want siege in it's own control group.~~ also it might make youtube vids easier to make if you enable cheats and type "inna jiffy" in chat for instant production. imo it's better to just talk about micro and army management in this vid. i know the other stuff is important but I think the people that look up videos on youtube will look up all topics (the players that dismiss the important stuff you talk about won't be looking at guides on youtube anyways) just my opinion ofc. really like the guides and talking points though, coming from someone who has been intimidated by RTS but thinking of getting more into it now. the water guide is also extremely useful just to have a "one size fits all" build that ofc isn't optimal for each civ but good enough for a new player that doesn't want to spend forever learning water. 👍

I just tested the siege + infantry movement and its very weird/inconsistent. in general, if you make the move command while siege is unpacked (tested with mangonels) then infantry move at full speed (independant from siege). if you make the move command while the siege is packed then infantry move slow as siege. if you make additional move commands then its very inconsistent whether infantry move at siege speed or not. tl;dr siege should be on another hotkey either way
