| —In-game description | ||
Republic of Genoa 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 Genoese Crossbowman. Additionally, it makes Pilgrims generate +20% gold.
Strategy[]
Aging up with the Republic of Genoa sets up the Knights Templar for a strong mid- and late game, granting them an improved Pilgrim economy and unlocking a powerful unit which can perform a similar role to the Handcannoneer, which the Knights Templar otherwise lack. There are very few situations where this option is a bad choice.
