||
− | The '''Castle''' is a defensive building for Asian civilizations in ''[[Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties]]''. It acts as a combination of an [[Outpost (Age of Empires III)|Outpost]] and an [[Artillery Foundry]]. |
||
+ | The '''Castle''' is a military/defensive building in ''[[Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties]]'' that is unique to the Asian civilizations ([[Chinese (Age of Empires III)|Chinese]], [[Indians (Age of Empires III)|Indians]], and [[Japanese (Age of Empires III)|Japanese]]). It acts as a combination of an [[Outpost (Age of Empires III)|Outpost]] and an [[Artillery Foundry]] by attacking nearby enemies, training and upgrading [[Artillery (Age of Empires III)|artillery]], and serving as a drop-off point for [[Home City]] shipments. The [[Chinese (Age of Empires III)|Chinese]] also train two of their [[Banner army|banner armies]] in the Castle, [[Mongolian Army]] and [[Black Flag Army]]. |
||

+ | == Units == |
+ | {| class="wikitable" |
||
− | The Castle is similar to the [[Russians|Russian]] [[Blockhouse]] and Native American [[War Hut]], but instead of training infantry, it trains [[siege unit]]s. It starts as an Flatland Castle and can be upgraded to a Hill Castle in the [[Fortress Age]], then a Mountain Castle in the next. Without [[Home City]] cards, only five Castles can be built. |

—In-game description |
The Castle is a military/defensive building in Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties that is unique to the Asian civilizations (Chinese, Indians, and Japanese). It acts as a combination of an Outpost and an Artillery Foundry by attacking nearby enemies, training and upgrading artillery, and serving as a drop-off point for Home City shipments. The Chinese also train two of their banner armies in the Castle, Mongolian Army and Black Flag Army.

History
“ | The fortification of towns had been in practice since ancient times, exhibited in the high-walled cities of Rome and the palaces of Byzantium; but in the ninth century, the feudal lords of Europe began to experiment with the castle, or fortified residence. These began as an elevated patch of terrain surrounded by a primitive ditch. Throughout medieval times, as siege technology developed and the threat of war constantly loomed, European rulers began to raise the walls of their fortresses higher and higher, and thicker walls were topped with towers and parapets. By the thirteenth century, castles had become highly sophisticated, and the integral spine to any kingdom. First, a strategic location was chosen, such as on a high cliff or at the bend in a river. Then a moat was dug, restricting access to a narrow point that was often blocked by a retractable drawbridge. The keep, or innermost part of the castle, was protected by a series of walls that had to be breached in order to enter, defeat the survivors, and claim victory. The earliest Japanese castle was the yamashiro, a deforested hill carved into a series of walls and courtyards. Each of the horizontal baileys gave defenders an open view of the battlefield. Because it had the same primarily defensive purpose as the European castle, the yamashiro shared many of the same features, with its squat, angular walls surrounding ditches. Also, both structures housed barracks and training facilities for a standing army led by the elite warrior class (the samurai, in the case of the Japanese). | ” |
