โ€œ Mighty is the Citadel, bastion of war. Ride into war confident that your kingdom is protected by Sekhmet! โ€
—Sekhmet upon casting Citadel

Citadel is an Egyptian god power in Age of Empires: Mythologies available to worshipers of Sekhmet. It converts a selected friendly Town Center into a mighty Citadel.

Strategy[]

Like its Age of Mythology counterpart, Citadel serves to reinforce a friendly Town Center, the most important building in Age of Empires: Mythologies. Players simply target a Town Center and it will grow in size, doubling its defense stat and resource income while also increasing its HP by 7.5%. Players may either cast it as early as Age II to benefit from the higher resource income or save it for when a second Town Center is built to make it more resilient to attacks especially if it is located closer to the enemy town.
