00:06The Holy Roman Empire specialises in rugged infantry and unique religious units in Age of Empires IV.
00:13This makes them a formidable foe in battle, requiring clever strategy to overcome their raw strength.
00:18The Holy Roman Empire are quickly able to fortify a position and utilise the Prullet,
00:23a religious unit available from the Dark Age, to build up a focused economy.
00:26With access to unique and powerful infantry upgrades, infantry make up the heart of this civilisation's army,
00:32perfect for deliberate and calculated warfare.
00:35Discounted cannon and spring ult weapon emplacements can be added to towers and keeps to defend areas of the map,
00:40while pushing forth with their robust infantry.
00:42Utilised properly, these bonuses make the Holy Roman Empire one of the most resourceful and sturdy civilisations in Age of
00:49Empires IV.
00:50Their economy can dominate the early game, thanks to the Prullet and their ability to boost villager efficiency significantly
00:56and increase gather rates.
00:57This opens the door to specialised strategies early in a match.
01:01Additionally, Prullets can garrison relics into defensive buildings to increase their strength further.
01:06When upgraded, Prullets can inspire military units, boosting their combat capabilities to dominate the battlefield,
01:12turning the tide of what could have been a losing battle.
01:15One of these military units is the Langeknecht, a unit unique to the Holy Roman Empire.
01:19They are a fearsome infantry, capable of dealing area-of-effect damage to enemies engaged in battle nearby.
01:26Besieging fortifications and cities won't come easy to an unprepared opponent.
01:30The Holy Roman Empire have the unique bonus to repair buildings over time,
01:34if they are within the town centre's area of influence.
01:37This bonus does have a cooldown, but with strategic use, can easily change the outcome of battle.
01:42As the Holy Roman Empire progresses through the ages, they gain access to several unique upgrades improving their melee and
01:49ranged infantry units.
01:50These benefits range from increased speed to additional armour, all in the service of improving raw army strength.
01:56Their infantry-heavy army will need to be prepared for cavalry counters,
02:00with spearmen ready to defend the front lines in case of an enemy cavalry charge.
02:04The Prelate must also be protected, as their bonuses on the front lines are critical to the success of the
02:09Holy Roman Empire,
02:10making them a prime target for enemy attacks.
02:13Opponents will require thoughtful timing and appropriate strategy,
02:16lest they be flattened by the vigorous infantry of the Holy Roman Empire.
02:20The Holy Roman Empire is a challenging foe, especially when fighting on their chosen field of battle.
02:27Players who enjoy building up impenetrable cities, and methodically defeating their opponents,
02:31will enjoy taking full advantage of all this civilisation has to offer.
