All Ottoman Landmarks in AoE4 Explained!

hello everyone and welcome to Asian new continuing our coverage of the upcoming new civilizations we're going to be looking at all ottoman landmarks in this video for Age of Empires 4. since balance is likely going to be tweaked for both civilizations before launch I won't get too deep into which of the two options is the most powerful to pick from but focus more on what they are intended to enable the ottoman player even if they got buffed or nerfed by launch okay let's take a closer look now starting with a feudal age the first Landmark the Ottomans can build in the feudal age is the twin minaret medicine which is currently still standing at erzurum in modern day Turkey in game this Landmark acts as a Mill and generates four berry bushes which can be harvested 50 faster each fully harvested berry bush takes 120 seconds to regrow and I'll analyze how many villagers is optimal to have with this landmark in a future video for now know that this Landmark is a safe and fast food resource generator and remember that you can also Farm around it as well overall a solid option for a food EcoBoost in the early game the second Landmark the Ottomans can build in the feudal age is the Sultan honey Trade Network this Landmark acts as a market and comes with two Traders already trained and Garrison within it also generates 28 gold per minute for each Trader Garrison the max Garrison limit is six Traders for a gold generation of 168 gold per minute this means that 6 Traders can grant you slightly above two relics worth of gold per minute since relics are going to be nerfed in the upcoming patch to wrap up the feudal age the ottoman's futile options are both economic as they'll have to rely on other options to defend themselves in the early game since Traders are getting significantly buffed in the upcoming patch I wouldn't count out Sultan honey Trade Network before some rigorous play testing moving on to the castle age the Ottomans now get two military landmarks to choose from the first is the Istanbul Imperial Palace it doubles the Imperial Council experience around the landmark and increases the vizier's point limit by plus two the Imperial Council and vizier point system requires a whole video of its own but as a summary for the purpose of this video is a selection of three free upgrades per age for a total of 9 free upgrades to choose from you're only allowed to pick 5 out of the 9th throughout the whole game but the Istanbul Imperial Palace extends that limit to 7 and helps you get the points faster I'll quickly showcase the upgrades you can choose for now so feel free to pause and read them as mentioned I'll cover these in a later video the second option for the Ottomans in the castle age is the mehmed Imperial Armory which basically produces free Siege units of your choice at a much longer trading time as for the options you can choose any of the available Ottomans each which means the spring gold manganel and trebuchet in the castle age and the rebelliquin and the great bombard in the Imperial age okay but how slow are we talking about here well let's make a quick comparison here's a table of all Siege units and their typical production times it takes 30 seconds for the spring gold 40 for the manganal 40 for the trebuchet 45 for the rebaldoquin and 60 for the great bombard the mehmed Imperial Armory on the other hand trains the sprinkled in two and a half minutes manganel in three trebuchet in 345 Republican 4 and the great bombard in a whopping six minutes it's not that bad though as there are potentially additional influences for the Ottomans here as a part of their civilization bonus any production building under the influence of a blacksmith or university gets a 25 33 and 40 production speed bonus with each respective age up hence if you have either a blacksmith or university around the numbers improved to 145 from springles 208 for manganel's 240 for trebuchets 250 for baldaquins and 415 for the great bombard but wait there's more one of the Ottoman Landmark options for the Imperial age the Istanbul Observatory Landmark increases the influence bonus to 60 instead hence if you choose to build that landmark in the Imperial age the best case scenario for our production times in the mehmed Imperial Armory decreases to 132 for the spring gold 152 for the manganal 218 for the trebuchet 229 for the rebaldoquin and 343 for the great bombard a free bombard every 3 43 minutes is basically equivalent to 400 resources per minute which is not shabby at all and finally the Imperial age the first Landmark option for the Ottomans is well the Istanbul Observatory we already covered what this Landmark does but just as a reminder it affects the production influence for all production buildings this means that you can train a springle in just 18 seconds a sipahi in 15 seconds a great bombard in 37 seconds and so on if you have the economy you will likely overrun your opponent with military units at that stage of the game the final Landmark for the Ottomans is the Seagate castle and it acts as a keep more importantly it gives an aura to all ottoman keeps to boost their trade units both on land and sea by a whopping 40 and provide an additional 10 armor once again if we compare this with the recent Buffs to trading overall in the upcoming patch we really need to test the viability of this Landmark before we can count it out it's obviously difficult to cover the map with many keeps to give this Aura to your Traders constantly but perhaps one or two keeps can make the ottoman trade very potent towards the mid to late game we'll have to wait and see how the play testing will go and finally although not a landmark I also wanted to quickly showcase the ottoman Wonder as well which is the famous azure your mask let's take a quick look from different angles and lighting before we wrap this video up [Music] well that was a short and sweet summary of your Landmark options for the Ottomans that are coming later in October I will be covering the Malian landmarks as well so be sure to like And subscribe to not miss out on the plethora of upcoming videos there's so much more to explore with many balance changes too and I'll be covering all of those as well as always thanks for watching everyone be sure to wreak havoc to your enemies with the great bombard and see you all in the next one [Music] foreign

There's a ton to unpack and analyze with the new patch, from the brand new two Civs to the plethora of other general balance changes. As always, I'll try to synthesize the info into digestible summaries like this one, so stay tuned for more!
