I've shared this before but it might be interesting to you. A few posts to fit it all! Castles and Town Centers are constructed 100% faster. Faster building Castles/Town Centers reflects the Norman penchant for castle building. While famous for building castles in England, the Normans also constructed many throughout Southern Italy and Sicily, such as the Castello Normanno ("Norman Castle") in Aci Castello, Sicily (built impressively on a rocky outcrop facing the sea) or the Castle of Melfi in Melfi, Italy. There are several castles and towers in the region referred to as "Norman Castle" or "Norman Tower" in Italian, reflecting the ubiquity of these constructions during the relatively brief period of Norman rule. In fact, this period of Norman Italy/Sicily (11th and 12th centuries) was known for incastellamento (encastellation), as castles sprung up so rapidly. Castles gave the Norman elite -- always relatively few in numbers -- the ability to control territory and manage very large and diverse subject populations, especially in Sicily. Castles and simple keeps or donjons also provided effective defense against feuds with Norman families (such as the conflicts between the Hautevilles and Drengots) and other invading powers. Castles also served an almost-offensive component, as represented by Count Roger's conquest of Sicily which was made possible by his gradual expansion out from his power bases of castles and towers. In fact, the geography of Southern Italy and Sicily, with its mountain ranges and narrow coastal plains, encouraged the construction of castles as a means to control and defend key terrain such as valleys and coastal cities.

Land military units absorb 50% of all incoming bonus damage. During their height, the Normans (and especially their cavalry) were militarily unstoppable on the battlefields of Southern Italy, the Balkans, and the Near East, such as at the Battle of Dyrrhachium (1081) when the Normans broke the center of the Byzantine lines with a direct charge. The Normans would have similar successes in direct melee with Arabs, Berbers, and Turks despite often being outnumbered. For example, at the Battle of Cerami (1063), a little more than 100 Norman knights decisively defeated a much larger Arab/Berber force, estimated in the thousands, through direct cavalry charge. Simply put, the Normans did not have a lot of tactical tricks up their sleeves to make up for their small numbers, but could still win with sheer ferocity. In addition, this bonus reflects the Italo-Norman success against their enemies. Similar to how the Lithuanian Leitis -- with an attack that ignores armor -- is especially effective against Teutonic Knights and Boyars, the unique units of two civilizations the historical Lithuanians fought and had successes against, the Sicilians being able to mitigate bonus damage reflects the Sicilian/Norman successes against their historical opponents: the Byzantines (with their anti-infantry Cataphracts and their other counter units -- spearmen/skirmishers) and Saracens (camels).

Farm upgrades provide +100% additional food to Farms before they need to be reseeded. Dating back to Roman times, Southern Italy and Sicily has always been an agricultural center, owing to its warm climate and the fertile volcanic soil in the region. The Roman latifundia, or large farming estates, were long a feature of Sicily into the Middle Ages. While some historians suggest that the persistence of latifundia had long-term negative effects on the development of the Sicilian economy, the bonus makes sense when one considers that these large estates would have contained significant agricultural area -- hence the increased amount of food for a given farm.

Can build Donjons, which replace the regular Watch Tower line. The design of the Donjon itself is based on the Castello di Adrano in Adrano, Sicily (built in 1072 by Count Roger I of Sicily) -- which features a square tower above a recognizable larger base, possibly built up over an older Arab structure. Count Roger is believed to have erected this tower as a fortified outpost to assist in his conquest of the nearby city of Catania. The Normans often used such structures as bases of operation for offensive actions throughout a region. This history of offensive building is also reflected in the fact that the Donjon can train Serjeants and Serjeants themselves can build Donjons. In the game, the high armor value of the Serjeants allows them to hold their own in hostile territory a bit longer than regular infantry can until players can send in their Knights from their main bases.

Transport Ships +5 carry capacity and +10 armor versus anti-ship bonus damage. The Italo-Normans were not particularly effective at naval combat -- as evidenced by a number of naval defeats against the Byzantine/Venetians -- notably, the Battle of Corfu in 1084. They were, however, extremely innovative at transporting armies and horses, as well as undertaking amphibious operations, most notably in their initial conquests in Sicily as well as later in the Balkans. For example, in May 1061, Roger crossed the Strait of Messina separating Italy and Sicily with a surprise night-time crossing while the city of Palermo was taken 11 years later by an amphibious invasion. Transports having additional carry capacity and armor reflects this Norman/Sicilian ability to strike out via sea.

I'm sure I'm not alone here, but anyone else notice how in several campaign scenarios the Sicilians are called the Normans? As in, when you select a unit or building, instead of "Unit/Building Name (Sicilians)" it's "Unit/Building Name (Normans)". I feel like the civ was going to be called the Normans for most of the expansion's development but it got changed near the end and the devs didn't change all the "Normans" references

@@Draevan13 There is also a few times in the scenario were they aren't in Sicily and are just being Norman Knights and not connected to the Norman Sicilian Kingdom. And really only the final scenario is it really the Sicilian Norman Kingdom. So it makes sense for it to be all Normans, but the end scenario reflects the "Sicilians" as they are normally.

I've got this strategy when I play a 2v2 as Sicilians with a friend on arena. We both go for 30 pop dark ages, standard fc feudal, and then as quickly as possible get up 4 new tcs and a castle, a siege workshop and a barracks. We build siege towers at the workshop, get arson and squires in the barracks and of course get the first crusade tech. Then, we hop the walls and destroy their base at like 23-27 minutes before they have any substantial army. This worked so well before first crusade was nerfed. 100 serjents at 25 minutes in their base was unstoppable

This got me thinking about the old video SotL did about making custom civs, but doing one to seriously boost Farm output. Here it is:- --- Civ Bonuses:- Farms are 40% cheaper (Teutons) Farms do not require a Mill and Farmers do not require drop sites (Khmer) Economic upgrades cost no Wood (Vietnamese) Resources last 15% longer (Mayans) Forging, Iron Casting, and Blast Furnace are free (Magyars) --- Technology Tree: Bulgarians --- Unique Unit: Teutonic Knight (Teutons) --- Unique Technologies:- Steppe Husbandry (Cumans) Perfusion (Goths) --- Team Bonus: Farms are built 100% faster (Incas) --- So these are obviously very strong farms, but you can't actually win a game with farming alone - therefore, the very strong farm-based economy lends itself well to making a good trash unit Civ as well. Steppe Husbandry and Perfusion are there to make sure you can keep the Halberdier/Hussar train rolling, and you do get decent cavalry archers too if that's a thing you like. The Khmer farmer bonus is there to save you resources and to make your farms immediately useful, and the combination of them being much cheaper and a lot faster to build and reseed means you're getting a lot of bang for your buck. I know there are more farm-specific things out there - Burgundian Vineyards for the massive gold injection, the Franks getting farm techs for free, the Chinese team bonus giving more food - but the more generalist bonuses allow you to use your farms to win, rather than get massive amounts of food before losing. Hope this was fun to read! =]

Talking about jack of all trades civs for teamgames, Magyars are severely underrated. They are the only civ to have both FU paladin and FU arbs, even tho I would prefer them as pocket, as their scout rush is really strong. You can also go for maa into archers, which is even better than Burmese maa play thanks to the scout also getting +1 attack, but the eco behind it won't be as strong.

For my money Sicilians are the perfect ally for an archer civ. They have a tough meat shield infantry unit that can hold the line while the archer civ piles on damage from behind, and their unique tech helps offset the gold cost of archers or hand cannoneers. Hell of a tag team. Combine with Vietnamese Paper Money for a late game gold-heavy push.

Depending on who you're fighting, full upgrades Serjeants can in some situations tank more arrows than full upgrades *Huskarls*

I play them a lot on DM games as you can get a castle up before the enemy scout arrives and then be on 5tcs super fast for first crusade and have tonnes of vills making production buildings. Or you can just castle drop a line of castles into the enemy base

I think that people look at sicilians' tech tree and they don't realize just how strong they would be if they got more stuff. Imagine paladins who take half damage from halberdiers... they'd be absolute monsters vs basically anyone who doesn't have their own, fully upgraded, paladins. Think about arbalests with full upgrades who can 1v1 enemy skirmishers... it actually makes a good amount of sense that Sicilians have a narrow tech tree.

Hey Spirit! Nice job dude... I have to say that I am not very good with my English (because my native language is Spanish) and the "automatic subtitles (CC)" that youtube gives are really helpful to me. But, for some reason, in this video, I could not select the option of "automatic subtitles"; I do not know if it is because of something that you did or is just a KZbin thing. It would be really great for me if you can do something to solve that situation. Thanks!!!

I think you should still analize the economy, sometimes a civilization with bad military bonuses compensate their weaknesees with a good economic tech tree and economic bonuses. to me Sicilians are a solid A in their economy
