![]() Once in the Castle Age, a Spanish player must create some Monasteries and one or two Castles. Typically, Spanish should go for a Fast Castle and boom their economy. The building bonus can also be used in order to wall off and turtle early in the game. Normally a Spanish player should try to go for a Fast Castle, but alternatively they can try a Feudal Age rush by taking advantage of their bonus that allows villagers to build 30% faster and scout rush or a tower rush. They can be used for turtling and rushing strategies, but they are mainly considered a Boom civilization due to the fact that most of their bonuses are Castle and Imperial Age bonuses. Despite their faster-working builders, they lack any major economic bonuses, leaving them relatively vulnerable to a Feudal Rush or Fast Castle strategy and thus making it harder for them to properly take advantage of their offensive capabilities in the Castle and Imperial Age. Their siege weapons are average, lacking Siege Engineers and the upgrades Siege Onager and Heavy Scorpion. They have poor foot archers, being one of only two civilizations in the game unable to improve their Archers to the Crossbowman upgrade (the other being the Bulgarians). They also have their unique technology Supremacy if the player decides to go for villager rush, and their Blacksmith technologies cost no gold.Īge of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties Reviewĭespite their large number of advantages in the Imperial Age, the Spanish have some drawbacks in the early stages of the game. The Spanish also excel in trash wars, as it is the only civilization whose general trash units can be fully upgraded. While their Villagers are capable of defending themselves against certain units, they should not be strictly used for combat. This allows them to go in the front lines and build military buildings to reinforce and support a Spanish army without getting killed as easily. The second Spanish unique technology, Supremacy, gives Villagers a large increase in attack, hit points, and armor. Spanish also have access to all Monastery upgrades for their regular Monks, and their unique technology Inquisition allows Spanish Monks and Missionaries to convert units more quickly. Since Missionaries move much faster than normal monks and a Spanish army will be mostly composed of cavalry, this is a big advantage. The Spanish also have the Missionary, which is a mounted monk with greater speed, but lower range and without the ability to pick up relics. The Spanish Conquistador is arguably the most powerful unit in the Castle Age. They are somewhat fragile so are best used as support units in formations with Knights or Paladins, whose higher hit points can absorb damage that would easily kill a Conquistador. They have the advantage of being mounted which gives them an edge in speed, allowing them to use guerilla tactics. ![]() ![]() Like the regular Hand Cannoneer, they have a large attack, but are inaccurate. The Spanish unique unit is the Conquistador, a mounted Hand Cannoneer. In addition to performing their regular duties more efficiently, this allows Spanish Cannon Galleons to effectively engage enemy warships, reducing their need to be escorted by Galleons or Fast Fire Ships. This allows them to fire much faster and more accurately. Their greatest naval advantage is that their Cannon Galleons benefit from Ballistics. The Spanish can research all naval technologies, which makes them formidable on the water. ![]() 5.2 Disadvantages vs other civilizations.5 Compared advantages and disadvantages.3.4 Strategy changes in Dynasties of India.3.3 Strategy changes in the Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition.3.2 Strategy changes in The African Kingdoms.
