This means that even if you could rotate buildings it would be a purely aesthetic feature to change up the look of your towns. Relic and World’s Edge have cleverly built each AoE map in a way where the landscape moulds itself to what you build.Įach building also has a square base meaning there’s no risk of overlapping and the game simply won’t allow it and rotation wouldn’t fix the issue. However, towers are more resistant against stone throwing siege weapons, having 18 additional siege armor against them. All buildings by default have 80 resistance to all attacks but receive 28 additional damage from stone throwing siege weapons after accounting for default building armor.
You may think this is a major step back but in truth, there is no real need for the feature to be present. The buildings of Age of Empires are divided into each Age in which they can be built.
