| —In-game description | ||
Kingdom of Castile is an Age-up technology for the Knights Templar in Age of Empires IV: Knights of Cross and Rose that can be researched at the Town Center in the Feudal Age as part of the Commanderie system. It advances the player to the Castle Age and enables the Genitour. Additionally, it makes units except siege engines near Sacred Sites gain +20% damage and regenerate one hit point per second.
Faith of Castile (Passive): All units except for siege engines within a 7.5-tile radius of the center of a Sacred Site (5-tiles from the edge) gain 20% damage, including bonus damage, and regenerate hit points at 1 per second. This includes workers and ships.
Strategy[]
On maps with a single Sacred Site, or with all of them close together, this commanderie option can provide an extra boost to defending the Site for a Sacred Site victory, using the Faith of Castile bonus it unlocks. The regeneration is not affected by the Knights Hospitaller healing bonus.
This commanderie choice also unlocks the Genitour, which is highly specialized against ranged units due to its anti-ranged bonus damage and high ranged armor. With a low base attack and relatively slow Rate of Fire, it is nearly useless against melee units.
