Game review

From a theoretical perspective, "Age of Empires 4: Rise of Nations" allows players to achieve the goal of territorial expansion without using a single soldier. However, if you prefer non-economic means and choose the aggressive path, the game can also bring you a unique experience different from traditional RTS. As the game progresses, players will unlock new buildings, units, and research projects.

However, in "Age of Empires 4: Rise of Nations", by controlling the city, players can directly obtain the opponent's technological achievements, resource reserves and existing buildings. This setting greatly increases the strategic depth and interest of the game.

What is particularly fascinating is that with the introduction of strategic weapons such as nuclear weapons, the game situation has become more complex and changeable, and there may even be a situation where neither side has a winner, because excessive nuclear radiation is enough to destroy the entire earth. This setting Certainty definitely adds more uncertainty and challenge to the game.

**Evolution of the times**

RoN "Age of Empires 4" cleverly divides thousands of years of human history into eight distinct eras: ancient times, classical times, the Middle Ages, the Gunpowder Age, the Age of Enlightenment, the Industrial Age, the Modern Age, and the Information Age. As the era progresses, players will unlock a series of new buildings, units and research projects. The evolution of this era not only symbolizes the vigorous development of various ethnic groups in history, but also brings unprecedented upgrades and changes to the characters in the game.

1. In ancient times, only infantry battalions and defense towers could be constructed, resources were limited to food, wood, and wealth, and the size of cities was limited to small ones (cities were divided into three levels: small, large, and extra large).

2. Entering the classical era, buildings, facilities and military units have been significantly expanded. At this time, cavalry battalions, siege engines, fortresses, universities, and mining stations can be built. The types of resources have also increased to five types, and two new items, knowledge and metal, have been added.

3. During the Middle Ages, two new units, the Supply Wagon and spies, came into being, and catapults were upgraded to siege engines. Although this period is still suitable for defense, the emergence of new arms has begun to quietly change the balance of offensive and defensive forces.

4. The following two eras of gunpowder and enlightenment further strengthened the attack capabilities of the units. Some combat arms have gradually evolved into long-range shooting arms. This huge change is enough to subvert the "rules of the game", making these two periods a potential high-incidence period for large-scale conflicts.

5. Once we entered the industrial age, the introduction of the sixth resource, oil, and the emergence of tanks and aircraft once again pushed war into a more complex situation. The development of arms in the modern and information age is the continuous deepening and extension of this trend of complexity.
