—Defying his cousin in Unholy Marriage |
Jacqueline of Hainaut (15 July 1401 โ 8 October 1436) is a civilian hero unit in Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition - Lords of the West. Her appearance is based on a Queen.
She has no form of attack whatsoever, meaning that all she can do is simply move around and garrison inside buildings. As a hero, she cannot be converted and can regenerate health.
She appears as a player (but not the unit itself) in the scenarios Unholy Marriage and The Hook and Cod Wars in the Grand Dukes campaign.
History[]
Jacqueline (French: Jacqueline; Dutch: Jacoba; German: Jakobรคa; 15 July 1401 โ 8 October 1436), of the House of Wittelsbach, was a noblewoman who ruled the counties of Holland, Zeeland and Hainaut in the Low Countries from 1417 to 1433. She was also Dauphine of France for a short time between 1415 and 1417.
Jacqueline was the last Wittelsbach ruler of Hainaut and Holland. Following her death, her estates passed into the inheritance of her cousin (through her mother's side) Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy.
