I see. So there is a chance that the new settlement building totally replaces mill and camps.
Not sure if this image is official or not—it could be AI-generated—but based on this image and the teasers we’ve seen so far:
Guecha warrior: I’m assuming the central figure with the javelin and the wallganga (Inca shield) is the Guecha Warrior.
It looks like the image might be showing an elite → non-elite skin.
Elite → non-elite skin
Blackwood Archer: Positioned behind the Guecha Warrior. From the teaser, we can clearly see both the non-elite and elite skins, which seem consistent with what’s shown here:
Bolas Rider: One odd detail: in the teaser, the strings of the bolas appear to be on the other side of the horse compared to the picture.
The unit in the front appears to be the Champi Warrior.
What’s interesting is the shield: In this image, it looks square. In other teaser images, it appears round
This could indicate different skin progressions or upgrade stages.
This right here should be the Temple Guard with new Monk skin:
Finally, we also seem to get a glimpse of the Ibirapema Warrior, though details are harder to make out.
Curious to hear what others think.
Where is the image from?
Can anyone post all the available pictures in 1 place? Considering everyone is facing difficulties posting pictures, I’m probably asking too much.
I wonder (hah) what the Tupi Wonder will be. They don’t seem like the type of civilization to have grand structures that survived long enough to be recorded.

I get the impression that Inca get fortified walls, Muisca get stone walls, and the other two civs only get palisades.

I would actually find that hilarious.
Part of me really wants them to add Christ the Redeemer as a scenario editor building for kicks, even though it’s wildly anachronistic. It’s quite the grand structure.

It’s curious that Cunhambebe is one of the antagonists (along with the French) in the Tupi campaign, since the Tupi in the WoL/AotW mods in AoE 3 have him as their AI personality…
Yes, it reminds me of the Spanish Rodeleros in AoE 3… but it’s not unusual that the natives used round shields too…
Yes, I wouldn’t be surprised if they did… for example, the Mongolian wonder in AoE 4 is a monument to Genghis Khan built in… 2008!
Yes, they probably have palisades and fortified palisades instead of stone walls, like the Rus in AoE 4…
Yeah, that would be cool… but just for the lulz…

Well, we recently got maps featuring Royal Albert Hall and Nessie…

the description for it says drop off point for all resources. the only reason you might still need the other buildings is to research upgrades
I think that feels more like a scenario object. but could be the wonder

Yes, at the rate we’re going, the next RBW will be in Brazil and we’ll have maps fighting in Rio with Christ the Redeemer on a cliff xd…

It’s a main menu mod when you pre-ordered

And -
- When you don’t have 3x3 space.
- If the building cost more than 100 wood.

I don’t get why this is called “Settlement” and not “Storage Pit” or similar. Is it because it provides population too? That sounds like too many functions for the same building.
A common drop site for wood, food, stone, and gold, that provides population and is also built by the scout (in addition to Villagers, presumably).
It’s just too different and condenses too much specially if Incas, who are fine to play as they are, have to be changed to get them (and I can understand they are based off historical Inca structures but then I don’t understand why Tupi would get them).

Wait, what? Where did you get the info? I think you are mistaking it with outposts that can be built by new regional unit Champi Warrior.
Oh. I legit forgot about outposts. I never build them when I play.
That’s a place. You mean Ibirapema.
