First of all I'm super excited about AOW4!
AOW3 is my most played gamed and favorite of all time, and planetfall is probably on my top 5 played/liked game! So the hype is real!

One thing that I love to make on these games is creating the 'perfect military city' with the most min/max possible mystic city upgrades/landmark possible in order to have amazing troops mid to late game, but so far I have not seen anything similar to those mechanics in AOW4. Does any of you heard or noticed anything like that on the streams? or maybe any Dev confirmation?

Thanks in advance for any response ;)

We've seen that there are landmarks you can annex to cities, so I expect some of them will have effects on the units you recruit in that city like they do in Planetfall.

In the dwarf stream, one of the materium traits mentioned a wonder would start in your borders, and your cities gain production bonuses when they annex them. Seems to be an equivalent to landmarks/mystic city upgrades.

Yeah that one I noticed, but I did not saw anything related to units/units group bonuses like we have in AOW3 and Planetfall. I hope it either was not shown, or it is still in development, or at least we get it in the next DLC.
For me is a big part of my fun with this kind of games.

Also, gives some more replayability to the game. Because even if you are playing with same race/tomes/culture if in one gameplay you get +X bonus to your pikeman and in the other game you get +X bonus to the cavalry, the games fells a bit different.

So far, we know that Enchantments apply to certain unit categories only, so it's not unreasonable for Landmark bonuses to act similarly.
