| —In-game description | ||
Republic of Venice 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 Castle Age as part of the Commanderie system. It advances the player to the Imperial Age and enables the Condottiero, Venetian Trader, and Venetian Galley. Additionally, it reduces change of exchange rate at Market by 75%.
Republic of Venice is the only option which enables trade units and warships for the player.
Strategy[]
The Republic of Venice is the most economic-focused Imperial Age commanderie option. Venetian Traders can provide a valuable, population efficient method of generating extra gold. Additionally with this option, buying or selling resources at the market changes the increase or decrease in gold price with each trade by ±1 rather than ±4, making rebalancing an economy more efficient. The Venetian Galley is also the only long-range method available to the Knights Templar to deal with coastal defenses, while the Condottiero can be a strong option against certain unit combinations due to its unique unit typing and resistance.
