Holy crap this is huge.

Gameplay

General

- Improvements to Photo Mode

- Improvements to Ping/Flare

Fixes

- Disabled Ping/Flare menu access when viewing games as a spectator

- Fix for some Home City customizations costing more points than displayed in their tooltips

- Fix for Commandery using the wrong image within the Compendium

- Fix for additional Spring Event Profile portrait not being obtainable

Graphics

- Fixed an issue where flaming arrows would not be used by Pavisiers or Crossbowmen after sending the Steel Bolts card

- Added an unique icon for the Maltese Grand Master unit

- The Maltese Grand Master customizations Morgan Black and Alain Magnan now use their own icon

- The British Explorer customizations Ada Lovelace and Lizzie now use their own icon

- The Spanish Explorer customizations Heroic Villager and Flamenco Dancer now use their own icon

- Replaced the Italian Gondolas customization in the Maltese home city with Maltese Luzzu boats

- Improved the variation of Gondola designs in the Italian home city

- The Italian Galleass now flies a Venetian flag in addition to the Italian one

- Fixed the compendium images for the Cossack Daredevil and Armored Pistoleer

- Repainted the Native Warriors card icon

Updated Minor Civilizations

- Clicking on a Settlement will now preview what units and techs are available inside before building it

Minor Civilization Rework

An **additional** mechanic to form alliances with Minor Civilizations has been implemented:

- Instead of manually placing a Trading Post it is now also possible to convert the settlement’s socket with any unit and slowly build the Trading Post automatically with a click of a button!

- To convert a socket you can to walk up to a neutral settlement with any unit. Upon conversion you will hear a capture sound and see a flag of your player color placed into the socket:

- To form an alliance with this minor civilization select the converted socket and click the new build button in the top left:

- Forming an alliance through this mechanic does not require a builder unit and costs 100 food and 100 wood. Upon clicking the button the Trading Post will be slowly built.

- It is still possible to manually place and build a Trading Posts for 200 wood in the same socket. The construction time will also be notably shorter this way!

- A neutral Settlement with a converted socket will now provide some Line of Sight of the surrounding area (a bit like the Stagecoach) as long as you are in control. Building a Trading Post improves this bonus further and grants a trickle of 0.35 XP per second, and access to additional units and technologies as usual.

- As long as the construction of a Trading Post has not been started, other players can still convert sockets back with any of their own units, or manually build Trading Posts in the socket.

Really? A dream come true.

I hope these are not the only changes they make. I liked the change from reverting the Navajo to a skirmish unit, but I’m thirsty for more: [Catalog of proposals on minor factions/civilizations (AOE-3 BASIC + TWC + TAD)](https://forums.ageofempires.com/t/catalog-of-proposals-on-minor-factions-civilizations-aoe-3-basic-twc-tad/204359)

I don’t know Lakota, but now Haudenosaunee is going to be the most powerful civi in the game hahaha.

I loved all the changes, it’s time to learn Lakotas again.

Addition of Tatars and Qizilbash; does this mean we are getting a Persian and Central Asian nomad civ, or is this actually the nail in the coffin for them?

Glad to see my favorite civ getting some love with the rework!

I kind of wish the Camp Movements feature was a default feature, a unique aspect of the civ. It’s a really cool idea. Generally, I’m liking what I’m seeing, but Age 1 and 2 are going to be a lot slower with those settler cards gone. I hope you’re adjusting the AI to take advantage of the new teepee mechanics too. It typically doesn’t build them very much as is, but the auras are definitely making them more necessary.

The trade post capturing mechanic is interesting. Hopefully, it’ll help with AI games where the AI blocks his own team out from the trade center with a 1hp foundation then never builds the thing.

I don’t understand the TEAM Jujistu card. 15% of like 5 damage is 1 extra point on a unit you don’t want to be attacking at all aside from the Chinese monks and disciples. It’s a weird card with really only one potential allied civ that gets any benefit from the change.

The Italian changes feel strange as well. Gating the Age 4 upgrade for Italian archaics behind a card requirement and the attack portion of that upgrade behind an additional proximity requirement just seems like a poor substitute for simply allowing them natural Age 4 upgrades like other Euro civs get. The halberds potentially benefit, but to use Pavisiers, you still need 2 Age 3 cards + this. You’re better off using the 3 cards elsewhere and just using the non-wood-cost Bersagliere. Having two uniques in the same infantry skirmisher role seems to have created some issues where both need a reason to use them, but there’s not space to incentivize both.

The Redshirts card feels a bit like the Aztec +10% card for the slingers. It’s such a small benefit for an Age 4 card that you really don’t have a great reason to choose it over alternatives of much higher value.

We’ll see how it plays! Can we expect the long-awaited Sioux/Lakota customizable home city as well?

Thanks for the continued work to make the game fun and interesting!

BTW this looks pretty weak for an age 3 card…And it still requires the church card + church tech. Not sure how this would work out.

Damn, I wasn’t expecting a big update like this so soon after the latest DLC was released. What a great surprise!  
I didn’t see in the notes anything about Home City customization for the Lakota, which might suggest that they have even more reworks planned for the Lakota in future updates alongside HC customization.

What a changelog! A quick note about the Rangers though, if you send Yeoman or Siege archery before doing Rogers Rangers do you lose those benefits or will they automatically update when you decide to do it?

I suppose that you get the improvements, but I feel that is not well enough explained.

Same it’s a bit strange, for 8 pop slot mortars because that hurts other NA civs who didn’t get the pop discount card.

Rangers are hardly op, as they are right now it’s better to stick with longbows.

Also Hauds are in much more need for an update than Lakota…

I thought the same too, but after seeing how broken it was for mongols in aoe4 at release, I’m glad its only on age 2 behind a card.

It’s only 5% range resist, everything else is cosmetic except for the one thing that bothers me, the name. They should be called Green Jackets, because that’s what british riflemen were called and it fits with the theme since british line infantry are called Redcoats.
