โ€œ Produces siege engines and powerful gunpowder units. โ€
Age of Empires IV description

The Bureau Brothers' Workshop is a military production building in the Retake Normandy scenario of the The Hundred Years War campaign in Age of Empires IV. It trains gunpowder siege units.

Despite the building being available when the player takes over the town in the Castle Age, the building is useless until the player researches Chemistry. With Chemistry researched, the building can train gunpowder siege units (initially at exorbitant prices) or instead upgrade to the College of Artillery landmark.

Since this is the building which eventually upgrades to the College of Artillery, the player does not have the choice to select it as their choice of landmark when advancing to the Imperial Age. Consequently, they have both Imperial Age landmarks in this scenario. This scenario does not allow the player to build the Siege Workshop, which means that losing this building is detrimental to completing this scenario.
