New DLC! Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition – The Last Chieftains

Bolas Rider and Blackwood Archer ring a bell:

So I guess that (at least for military) they reuse some AoE 3 voice lines.

It’s too early to say, we got screenshots of the Persian wonder in the middle of Central Asian architecture after ages of people asking their architecture to be changed to that, only for them to not change architecture

Who are The Last Chieftains?

The Last Chieftains DLC covers South America, primarily in the late 15th and 16th centuries. This DLC focuses on three major chieftains and their tribes, following the stories of indigenous peoples who were forced to confront both internal conflicts and external threats from European arrivals. Three tribes and the modern-day countries in which they primarily resided are represented: the Tupi from Brazil, the Mapuche from Chile and Argentina, and the Muisca from Colombia.

What campaigns are featured in The Last Chieftains?

The campaigns follow the true historical struggles of the brave men and women who stood up to violence from both internal and external forces. Take Arariboia (1520–1589 CE), who clashed with his indigenous rival Cunhambebe and was forced to ally with the Portuguese invaders to save his people from annihilation; or Lautaro (1534–1557 CE), who escaped enslavement under the Spanish conquistador Pedro de Valdivia and rallied the Mapuche to fight back against the Spanish invaders. In the final campaign, folk hero Pacanchique navigates the turmoil of the Muisca civil wars between the northern and southern territories that took place in the late 15th and early 16th centuries.

The significance of this period cannot be overstated: Lautaro’s rebellion was a major event in the Arauco War, which lasted for over 300 years, during which the Mapuche successfully resisted Spanish invasion — one of the few indigenous peoples able to do so. Meanwhile, Arariboia’s bravery and loyalty to the Portuguese in the face of a French invasion were rewarded with a knighthood in the Order of Christ, cementing his legacy. Finally, the Muisca legend of El Dorado lives on to this day, underscoring the enduring power of myth and memory in shaping history.

Which civilizations are being included in The Last Chieftains expansion?

In the Last Chieftains expansion, you will dive into medieval South America and take command of three powerful and unique new civilizations as history and folklore combine to present epic conflicts, riveting narratives, and endless intrigue. Challenge your friends in skirmish matches or battle your way across South America with three new civilizations. You can fight as the Mapuche, who famously harnessed the power of cavalry with their fearsome Bolas Riders to fight back against their Spanish oppressors, or wield the might of the Guecha Warrior, the famed elite soldier of the Muisca people. Finally, unleash the dual threat of the Blackwood Archers and Ibirapema Warriors as the Tupi, battling through the jungles of South America.

That’s why I said TC lite. Just like Facebook lite doesn’t let you watch reels, TC lite doesn’t let you train villagers. 11

The LiDAR images from the Amazon you are thinking of are most likely from either the Bolivian or the Ecuadorian Amazon, neither of which is associated with the Tupi language family. The Bolivian discoveries are located in an Arawak-speaking region, while those in Ecuador are in a Shuar-Chicham-speaking area. Large village complexes have also been identified in Brazil, but they are less spectacular, such as the Kuhikugu towns.

They keep those, but not Eagles for Inca…weird.

Also another thing. New monk and king models for these guys. Not fully surprised, but still, nice to have.

I think those are slingers and the Muisca javelineer UU.

It’s not. One has a big feathered headdress, and the other has a hood and carries a stick with long flowing light-brown robes.

I still see no sign of a king model, but I assume these are what you mean by monks:


These seem to be the same unit:

And given there are multiples of these, I assume they are the other UU:
