Farms built in a tight radius around it cost 50% less wood and are harvested 15% faster. Pay attention to areas of influence around buildingsĪge of Empires 4 does something interesting with areas of influence around many of its buildings. There are no more Fish Traps requiring wood to be replenished, which is a huge deal on some maps where trees are scarce. Unlike in Age of Empires 2 where these spots ran out and were not replenished, they can now be fished (in moderation) throughout a game. Villagers can drop off food at docks, speeding up the process even more.ĭeep-sea fishing spots are also plentiful on water maps. These offer a ton of food without much investment, and they're a quick way to boost your economy if domestic sheep and wild deer can't be found. If your Town Center is dropped near a shoreline, be sure to watch out for fishing spots along the coast. Source: Windows Central (Image credit: Source: Windows Central)
