You are right, however, the Rus didn't really adopt stone fortifications until much later. The original Kremlin was made out of wood and it wasn't until the end of the 14th century that the Kremlin in Moscow was built with stone. I believe that Ivan the Great was the first ruler to employ stone fortinfications in Moscow. It wasn't until the rule of Peter the great that stone work and brick buildings took off in Russia in favor of wooden buildings. I think what the developers should do is allow the rus to reserarch a tech in the imperial age that allows them to built stone walls and that changes their kremlin to a red stone building.

In Age4, you'll probably utilize rus horse archers as effective, super fast archers, great for chasing down MAA and infantry without letting them get any hits in, and some poking and prodding Meanwhile, the mangudai will focus most likely on Kiting and drive-by's, leading the slower enemy armies through a glorious chase through their farms, while dealing damage to nearby vils.

However, it is a bit unclear why exactly the Rus is banned from building stone walls, like, is Kremlin fortress in Moscow is made out of wood or what? Also, why even in the final stage, the faction has stuff like a trebuchet when the Tsardom of Russia had cannons since 14 century which were actively used in the Siege of Kazan and etc.?

But not much on the cavalry and armory. And about seafaring, Javanese sail to Madagascar island in the early or mid medieval era. And they also traveled to region that now is the modern day Nigeria. In late medieval era the Europeans come with their cutting edge ship and amazed by how Malays built their ships. "Jong" ship is bigger than Portuguese' biggest ship at that time btw. And most Malay power is about the Javanese in Java island. Not Malays in Malay Peninsula. So maybe they need to call it "Majapahit Empire"?? Not Malay civilization.

About wooden castles pretty accurate. Not much of archeological evidence is left from that period. BTW, unfortunately there are some misleading russian influences in the design. Some people are still not aware, that Rus and Russia are more like Roman Empire and Romania -- the metropoly and the former colony with its own history. It's like to introduce the UK civilization with cowboys units and the Statue of Liberty building.

[Rus and Russia are more like Roman Empire and Romania] - Not at all. Russia is one of 3 main successor's of Rus heritage (others are Ukraine and Belarus). Muscovy's Rus was one of Rus inhabited lands. Rus itself was loose confederation of many East Slavic states. Muscovy was most important one as it was one who united and annexed other Rus lands (Tver, Novgorod, Suzdal etc.) and later seized Golden Horde's territories.

'The Rus' is one of the many countries that the Mongol Empire invaded and conquered. It seems to be set in the period before Rus became a colony of the Mongol Empire.

Looks like it's set during the time Rus defeated the Mongols at the Kulikovo Pole battle, and Moscow became the major power. It's basically the end of the Mongol Yoke.

They did not really conquer it fully. There were plenty of Northern and Western lands, that Mongols did not conquer. Lands under Golden horde were still administrated by Rus people, and later, with Grand duchy of Moscow and other Rus lands on rise, they fought back Golden horde.

@@luizandreluz1635 This kind of mechanic doesn't sound usefull to me. Why would you ever want to reset your rally point and not just set a new one? I usually used 'select all military building' and 'tab' for toggeling between the different kinds of units to create units, too, so it feels natural for me to use it for switching the gather point, too. In case of you just wanting to set global gather points with one hotkey, I hope they will enable makros.

@@barbiquearea I think it will be called as "Horse Archer". Because as I played the open beta, the units were called, "Knight" instead of "Kheshig" for the Mongols. Don't know they updated how they will be named. If they go specific, it would be great. For instance, the Rus heavy cavalry would be called "Druzjinnik" instead of "Knight" which makes sense.

Эра Империй 2 была охриненной как по геймплею так и по графе так и по компании. Вижу тут будет короткая компания. Геймплэй тот же. Худшее что есть это графоний! Вот сравнить тот же Тотал вар вархаммер 2 вышедший много лет назад. Там один отряд занимает половину экраны битвы Эпохи Империй, при этом, в том отряде юниты имеют разные скины вооружения брони и лицевой анимации...в общем эпоха империй это игры от разработчика андроид игр с расчетом на высокую прибыль. Не буду играть даже в пиратскую версию
