Do me a solid and like this comment, then reply to it with your favourite city or town in Saskatchwan, Canada! If you don't know any, rather than look one up, make your best guess at a city or town name that COULD be in Saskatchewan.

At 25:30 you couldn't queue units because you had surplus unit production from your quest reward. The reward finished the 2 you had already in production then had enough to start and finish the next two you tried to build. Which led to you having 4 units ready immediately.
How pleasing to see you playing AOW 4! I followed many of your XCOM2 seasons and I'm glad to see AOW 4 is also in your area of expertise! Expecting to see fine tuned optimizations :)
Odd, just something I saw from other streamers. When you decide which new regions to annex, the size of the icon shows you how much impact that improvement will have in that region. You kept building farms in the desert for example. While you had a fertile region just north of the city, which also had sheep, which would have raised the farms impact even more there.
Hey Odd! I'm from Saskatchewan so cool to know you are from there too! I live in Saskatoon (still cold as heck in winter haha) but I'm from Willow Bunch down south of Moose Jaw. Thanks for repping SK and congrats on all your success! Love the videos man! :)
One step closer to Odd streaming Stellaris.... Yes....Yes..... But on real Commander, I hope you have fun with this game. I have vivid memories of playing AoW3 with friends and even participating in a tournament!.
You may know this, but the size of the city structure icon signifies how much of that resource it gives. Sometimes a structure may provide other benefits, like a farm on a tile with cattle may cut the build time on a city building.
I was worried when the narrator said tome, that Odds proud pronunciation would be lost…I was happily rewarded with a tomb 10 seconds later. And I’ll tell you what’s soothing, those sweet Canadian vocals! I’m going to go with Moose Jaw, it was my first favorite beer as well!
I don't know why but i couldn't stop laughing at the "That's me" comment as the story was being laid out lol I can picture you standing then with your hand raised. "That's me" lol
If there is one way to make me care about a whole fictional civilization with only one decision... Just make them cat people, that's it. Really interesting introduction, I'm wanting to see what happens after that cliffhanger! 😁
I have never played any Age of Wonder games, but I have played almost all Civ games. I'm always looking for a new, great strategy/empire builder, so thanks for showcasing this game!! ❤
Funny/crazy making that at the start of this video the voice actor at 4:23 reads the word "Tome" correctly (sounds like home, Rome), our beloved Mr Odd at 4:59 reverts to his usual mistake of reading "Tome" as tooom, hahaha :D And he had just gotten so good at correcting mistake that while playing Vampire Survivors!
I don't think there's much point in taking your main hero; give him (her?) lots of +magic stuff and then give him an xbow. Pretty sure your Evoker's robes would affect that magic ball's magic damage too (although I grant maybe not; but the xbow definitely won't benefit from it). Also, I think the xbow only attacks once, whilst your magic orb is a repeating attack. Whispering Stones is a strange mechanic, it sounds less like 'negotiatons' and more insidious mind control lol. Take that Estoc guy from the nearest free city stealing all your claimed sectors, he and his followers left because they dislike your tribe's approach to magic; you give them a shiny stone and in a couple of turns time they are loyal vassals again? Even their name sounds insidious and I love it. I am quite looking forward to the 2nd when it comes out (well, for me it'll more likely be the 3rd because Australia can't have things released on local time through Steam)
I was a long time fan fo the franchise since Age of Wonders 2: The Wizards t hrone. Spent so many hours , days and endless time on it. Fond memories. Aoe 2 just didnt do it for me, and sadly, neither did Aoe 4. YOu do a good job playing though. Hope you are enjoying the gameplay ^~^ Be well.

Saskatoon, cause it ends with "toon" 😇
I was going to say Regina, 'cause it rhymes with fun (Yes, I got that from Deadpool) but I had family in Saskatoon, so I'll go with that.
@sewjee How dare you
@ChristopherOdd Sasquotcha - best guess.
Krasdogmasticosha
I’m so excited for this! Was waiting for your let’s play Odd!!!

Lol noticed that myself funny thing to miss
Ty! This will be a small learning adventure. Keep the tips coming!
@@ChristopherOdd Ok.... Ummm.... Theres nothing Crazier than a cat on Moon Sugar..... OH! and Home is always found Elswyr.

Oh yeah, the Tomb/Tome thing is back! That takes me back...

Gods, this looks beautiful. And not just in its art style!
Cat girls ! Mr Odd *actually* gave us Cat girls! Khajiit waifus
I LOVE that you’re doing a playthrough of this game!!
Yes! Another game that features tomes. 😅 Love the playthrough so far.

Chris is Canadian? Oh… that changes everything
Never thought you played this type of game. Have you featured other Paradox Games?
A few paradox games on the channel actually.

Saskatoon mentioned ❤, studied in U of S for 4 years, fun times
Nice to see you play AoW4 :D
Oh god I hope he realizes how the tiles work soon his first two choices hurt to watch.
Oh cool. I love those. I played all of AoW 1 to 3 XD
I hope you play more of this even after the sponsorship dries up. Good video!

You get a like simply for getting my home province into your title!!! And of course for a fun playthru!!!
Oh and Wawota Sask.
Oh damn! I was wondering if you were going to play this game. I hope you have a good time with it and do a full run or two.
Game looks really cool. I love AOW universe so thank you very much for playing this one.
hey christopher is it possible to make more Age of Wonders 4 videos? I always loved how you explain 4x games and i just started to get in these games.
Interesting timing: just yesterday I had a hankering for a 4x and started a game of AoW 3. Didn't even know AoW 4 was coming out.
cheers mr. odd, im interested on this game.
ChritopherOdd, seasoned Xcom player about a 60% chance : "how could that fail ?"
Predictably, it did
The age of wonders games are some of my most played
38:10 is sooo true lmao
seems like a nice blend of heroes of might and magic and civ
I might give it a go
thanks for your video :)
Thanks Odd
Cats are the best fighters and the cutest pets!
@Odd - We've been through this with Vanpire survivors. It's Tome not Tomb! Come on man!
Couldn’t find the Age of Wonders 3 playthrough but did find Planetfall which so far people are saying is better
Sask gang rise up
I dunno about that delivery, bro. You made it sound like you and Raina slept together.
And... ;)
@@ChristopherOdd HAHA I figured. :)

So.... Is this similar to heroes of might and magic?
If you name the next city Moosehead I'll be happy. Best name of a city since Newport News
the mechanics are TOTALLY Total War!!!! like the concept. But really... it looks AND feels straight up like a Total War game...
I don't think auto-exploring scouts will Prospect stuff. Can be useful to keep an eye out and manually target it.
"Starts with a tomb of warding"
...that can't be right?
Huh really thought yo'd go Christopurr for your leader's name.

Saskatoon rises !!!!
I wanna make a kinky race in aow4 but odd is ahead of me 😅🤣🤷
another Odd series I am definitely watching all the way through. 👍 just bought this one myself, can't wait 'till it releases.
ofc he needs to join others :) AoW is a perfect strategy, I liked all previous ones
Wait a minute. This isnt Jedi Survivor!
Uhm, are we not going back to Shardpunk then?
There is 5 now, including Planetfall. Damn, I love nitpicking.
*Are. I too, love nitpicking.
The break right before a real battle...
Where is the new Xcom series?
where is verminfall? :(
Thank you for really good spoilers here.
Khajiit has wa- wait wrong game
Can you upscale the UI a little bit? Us phone users have a tough time seeing the particular unit costs, etc...
Not enough jedi in this game.
FINALLY... someone playing this in 4k
4 AoW games??? Cannot abide this Planetfall erasure!
made by furries for furries
Pronouns in a game?😂😂😂
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH shiiiit.
That came unexpected.
wow, this game looks amazing. loads of thanks [el'sda2],
