我也猜那是地標。為了與中國的穀倉做區別，我猜可能會改成按照範圍內的農田數量產黃金之類的特殊能力，但這和英格蘭就有點像了。
目前只有一張圖，可以看出倭的文明特色是有許多特殊建築。包括贈送農田的房舍、合併採礦營地的鐵匠鋪。
除了薙刀武士外，目前沒有公佈其他特殊單位。我希望有僧兵。至於某些人說的流鏑馬，還是別想了，倭跟草原民族完全不能比。
有一點我特別要提出來。希望倭海軍不是套用中國的海軍單位，而是用安宅船。

Those are literally unchanged Abbasid Dynasty Lancers that are in the game right now.
Yes you’re right and I also just realized that the Ayyubid Dynasty, Persia and Mamluk Sultanate were ALL part of the Abbasid dynasty, so i dont think we are getting any of those.
Japan seems like the only civ confirmed so far.
Of course, even if it is unique, it will not change from functioning as a blacksmith…
I don’t think they put the Persians in AoE 4, because you already have the Abbasids…
Yes, for me it is not a landmark, but surely the Japanese have landmarks, although most likely they would be bigger than that building (for example, the Japanese wonders of AoE 3)…
Of course, both the mill and the houses were similar… Japan received a lot of influence from both Korea and China in early antiquity…
Yeah, maybe it’s something like the Chinese village…
It doesn’t sound like any building to me…, if it’s a landmark it should be something like a castle or a large temple like these from AoE 3:
Golden Pavilion: Increases the attack of ranged land units, the attack of hand units, the speed of all land units, or the hitpoints of all land units. Configure it to give bonuses to different things.
Great Buddha: Casts the Informers spell which reveals the enemy’s positions to you.
The Shogunate: Decreases training time and cost of land military units.
Torii Gates: Increases the experience point build bounty for training units and constructing buildings and the bounty for defeating enemy units and buildings.
Toshogu Shrine: Acts as a giant Shrine and increases the amount of resources that Shrines generate. Supports 20 population.
Yes, maybe it’s just a big tower in the Abbasid campaign…it doesn’t sound like a city in the Middle East that has that tower…
Yeah, maybe it’s just a custom civ like the ones in the campaigns…
Of course, the Ayyubid dynasty was founded by Saladin, who was the sultan of Egypt appointed by the Abbasid Caliphate…and the Mamluk Sultanate is simply the continuing state of the Abbasid Caliphate after the Mongol conquest of Baghdad in 1258 (just as Byzantium is the continuing state of the Roman Empire after the fall of Rome)
The Ayyubid dynasty (Arabic: الأيوبيون al-Ayyūbīyūn ; Kurdish: ئەیووبیەکان, Eyûbiyan), also known as the Ayyubid Empire , was the founding dynasty of the medieval Sultanate of Egypt established by Saladin in 1171, following his abolition of the Fatimid Caliphate of Egypt. Saladin had originally served Nur ad-Din of Syria, leading Nur ad-Din’s army in battle against the Crusaders in Fatimid Egypt, where he was made Vizier. Following Nur ad-Din’s death, Saladin was proclaimed as the first Sultan of Egypt by the Abbasid Caliphate, and rapidly expanded the new sultanate beyond the frontiers of Egypt to encompass most of the Levant (including the former territories of Nur ad-Din), in addition to Hijaz, Yemen, northern Nubia, Tarabulus, Cyrenaica, southern Anatolia, and northern Iraq, the homeland of his Kurdish family. By virtue of his sultanate including Hijaz, the location of the Islamic holy cities of Mecca and Medina, he was the first ruler to be hailed as the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, a title that would be held by all subsequent Sultans of Egypt until the Ottoman conquest of 1517.[12][13] Saladin’s military campaigns in the first decade of his rule, aimed at uniting the various Arab and Muslim states in the region against the Crusaders, set the general borders and sphere of influence of the Sultanate of Egypt for the almost three and a half centuries of its existence. Most of the Crusader states, including the Kingdom of Jerusalem, fell to Saladin after his victory at the Battle of Hattin in 1187. However, the Crusaders reconquered the coast of Palestine in the 1190s.

The Mamluk Sultanate (Arabic: سلطنة المماليك, romanized: Salṭanat al-Mamālīk), also known as Mamluk Egypt or the Mamluk Empire , was a state that ruled Egypt, the Levant and the Hejaz (western Arabia) from the mid-13th to early 16th centuries. It was ruled by a military caste of mamluks (manumitted slave soldiers) headed by the sultan and Abbasid caliphs were the nominal sovereigns. The sultanate was established with the overthrow of the Ayyubid dynasty in Egypt in 1250 and was conquered by the Ottoman Empire in 1517. Mamluk history is generally divided into the Turkic or Bahri period (1250–1382) and the Circassian or Burji period (1382–1517), called after the predominant ethnicity or corps of the ruling Mamluks during these respective eras.

I see Japan. FINALLY!!! 
I think the new dlc is just going to be new campaigns. The Japanese are probably going to be a free civ for people who already own the game.
I doubt it’ll be this basic and lack of new content, I’m expecting at least two new campaigns, two to three new civilizations and perhaps a new mode or a feature in the game like new unique skins for each unit and civ.
Based on the title and the boxart the Japanese don’t seem to be the main selling point of this dlc, so that’s why I think it’s going to be a free one.
A second civ is still possible, as of now the released screenshots don’t indicate there will be a second one.
In terms of unique skins afaik every shared unit (MAA, xbow, archers,…) already has a unique skin depending on the civ.
Yes, I think it would be two campaigns: an Abbasid (Crusades) and an Ottoman (the rise of the Ottoman Empire), perhaps I would add another campaign for Delhi (you know for being a sultanate)…
Yes, I think we have to wait until October for them to update new photos…

If the “largest expansion to date” (or whatever the exact quote was) does not include more than what was released last October, then they are messing with words and playing games. That sentence implies they are considering other previous releases to have been expansions, regardless of whether someone can stand on their head and claim that a paid DLC would be an expansion where a free content patch would not. So I’d say it is pretty reasonable to expect this thing to have perhaps two civs and a campaign or perhaps three civs standing alone, etc.

Yes, they said that it will be the biggest expansion of AoE 4 for sure, but they do it as if it were the biggest expansion of the whole saga…
the biggest expansion for Age of Empires IV yet!
This was the exact quote.

Considering the expansion will bring in a new campaign, that quote seems correct

Yes, to be clear, I see no reason to doubt the truth of the quote. There also appear to be at least two new civs coming.

What is this? counting that the large granary is a landmark, in the picture they have 4 landmarks, which is unfeasible, why should they have 3, that it is not a new small castle?
要說為什麼有超過三個地標，那絕對不是因為倭有類似中國朝代的藩系統。
我認為這些圖就只是展示倭有哪些單位、建築，不是實際的遊玩情況。
