I got Beastyqt to try out the civ I designed! 

Easy way to rebalance the teleport mechanic would be to add a delay based on distance (so the units don't actually teleport, so it would make it more believable that they're actually going through the tunnels.) The actual numbers could then be fiddled with to achieve optimal balance. If the modding tools allow all of that ofc.

As a Vietnamese person, I thank you very much for your time and dedication to creating this Civilization. This is my suggestion to make this army not too strong and retain its unique characteristics. 1: Worker Elephant: Vietnamese people raise elephants to help with work, but if there is a war, elephants will definitely be a very important part of the war. I hope a landmark has an intrinsic ability to help Worker Elephant transform. into a fighting elephant (at a higher cost and time) like a Russian ship. So we can play the strategy of playing many elephants in the early stages (of course there will be dangerous because buy many elephants will weaken the economy and army) and convert them all into war elephants and attack in one go. 2. Guerrilla fighting style I think increasing damage when near people's houses is not really reasonable, instead we can increase damage in the first 10 seconds after being detected by enemy vision, or standing in the invisible forest. A guerrilla army will be weak in a long battle, so it may be better to accumulate damage while undetected. Or let the soldiers have the passive ability to create invisible forests 3. about underground bombs Is it too powerful at a low cost? I would level 2 with Pho Minh Tower and by 2-3 pikemen and move to some resources near the enemy's house and place some bombs there, and when your team moves out it can completely kill 4 -5 villagers and gives a huge advantage

love your work!! the history in the south east asia countries are so rich we have the majapahit, sultanate of malacca, khmer and many more and i cant wait modders to bring it to aoe4

Thank you for this. I saw his video and seeing the explanation and concepts behind it is really helpful. And very satisfying as well, the density of workers on farms was really a nice touch! Congratulations to both of you for making this happen

beasty and chilly linkup DANGEROUSLY BASADO

Okay, well awesome. Now I know why they can't do some of nthe things I was expecting them to (modding limitations) But also very interesting that I wanted them to be able to do things you intended. Like stealth hideouts and nydus network abilities plus more stealth in general. I'm excited to be to keep watching this through its refinement

Great work, Chilly! I have this idea for the Empty Garden House mechanic, what if you can make the pop increase permanently added so that even if that house got destroyed the total pop size will not change. It's a small buff but it reflects the idea of Empty Garden. "Yeah, destroy that house. We already got what we need."

Nice work Chilly! Keep it up!

Absolutely unbiased Like and well I would Subscribe if i wasnt already subscribed 😂. Thx for the shoutout! It was a dream watching this civ come to life, as much as it could be done! Great job to both of you!

Absolutely great work Chilly. So fun. Im trying to get my friends to play it in customs with me. Forgotten Empires needs to hire you yo lead your own team to create aoe4 expanded civs.

Glad to see your concept becoming a reality with community input helping forge a balanced civ. Hopefully the AOE 4 devs reward this creativity with help for modding. Good luck!

The biggest take-away I had from this video is seeing just how darn restrictive the modding capabilities are in AoE4. Very disappointing.

Just looking at recruiting staff hot key issue that they use different hetkeys as other military units I have 2 suggestions in mind. 1st idea: After taht landmark houses work as archeries and outputs as barracks. - this would encourage to build houses even more with outposts 2nd: instead of there are inplacement upgrade for outposts but barracks or archery. Those my 2 cents on matter.

Is there any news about future DLC for AoE4? I hope we see new civs next year or so. This, vikings or any barbarian civs would be nice.

Do you plan to model vietnamese buildings and units to fully replace the chinese look?

25:40 Im pretty sure Order of the Dragon armor upgrade is stronger (+3) so it's not unprecedented

Great work! I really like to see persians in the game but i know persia didnt really exist like it does now bcs it was rulled by various dynasties like mongols or arabs but the dynasties were culturally persian and the Persian culture and language were very much alive, but tbh the game isnt completely historically accurate so i think if they wanted to add the Persian they could make a very good civ. Plus persia was one of the gunpowder empires

Spaniards or Aztecs in the future?

I think it would be cool to double down on the tunneling network. Make it function identically to the GLA in Generals, where the tunnel (or Hideouts in this case) simply just share whatever units are garrisoned inside. That means whichever units you place in one of the hideouts, will be available to ungarrison in any other hideout. It allows for global army teleportation, but just as in Generals, the hideout should have a garrison of 10, or maybe 5 for starter, increasing it for a cost at castle age. Units do not shoot out of hideouts, so perhaps it's best to separate the building from the outpost. Then add an Imperial landmark that allows for a sneak attack ability. This ability will deploy a hideout anywhere on the map, allowing you to ungarrison your army inside the enemy base. This all sounds quite powerful on paper, but just like the GLA in Generals, the Vietnamese should be balanced out like the Malians, with generally weaker units that lose in a straight fight against armored opponents. It's also important to remember the garrsion limit has an impact on gameplay. You simply can't ungarrison an army of 100 or more units at a time, but 10 at a time, allowing the enemy to respond to the attack.

Make an video about the Aztec civ you design

special economic units such as elephant worker can be treated as imperial officers, non villagers or military, easy.

Don't malians have a stealth building in their age 4 landmark?

What is the app used for design doc? The canvas

So are all the version posted?

can you make persian empire ?

nice! please make native american next use mongol
