I went back and forth on whether or not this was a bug that I wanted to ever really show off, but considering that it remains in game (and some unscrupulous players do abuse it), I figured we could do some silly things to allow us to show off the most notorious bug in Age of Wonders 4 - the Town Hall 2/construction queue bug. Normally, Town Hall 2 is a crucial piece of infrastructure you are effectively forced to build ASAP, at least in your capital so that you can get your wizard tower and SPIs online. What if, however, you could just... not?

Turns out, if you queue up Town Hall 2, you can queue buildings that then rely on Town Hall 2 being present *and then shuffle them ahead of the enabling Town Hall 2*. This, of course, also allows you to do weird things like building item forges as like your second building if you have enough resources because you are playing with Fabled Hunters or the like, but as I mentioned, I want to show off this bug while also allowing us to play a mostly fair-ish game. That means Perfectionist Artisans is coming back off the bench, as it's pretty hard to come up with a trait that plays worse right now, and we'll be doing some really inappropriate things with our Tomes too (have you ever played without a summon on a T1 tome?).

Is queue abuse enough to overcome these challenges? How many people will attack us before T25? Can we still manage to get a Town Hall 3 online early enough for it to matter if we have to spend like literal 9 turns building one? Tune in and find out!

Introduction and (Swiftfoot Raptor) Mounts: (0:00)
The Build- Perfectionist Artisans as a stability source?: (9:35)

The Construction Queue Bug: (30:05)
The Great Builder Stone Walls Bug: (32:30)
"Alright, whatever Walker, just watch this fight. Watch this fight, watch everybody die, complain about it and then QQ" - OR, a case against support abilities on your heroes: (38:47)
You should generally check your underground passages for Free Cities because they are sometimes just kinda waiting around for you to do some old fashioned scoutin': (51:36)
Free City Fight: (1:03:17)
How to scout for cities under the fog of war: (1:13:02)
The biggest outpost the world has ever seen: (1:19:16)
BioBreak: (1:26:13)
Conquering Free Cities gets around this entirely, of course: (1:32:50)
Perfectionist Artisans has 10 research posts in cities on T15 iirc: (1:41:15)
Sometimes, you can defend your home against minor raids without scrambling your entire army, I promise: (1:58:57)
A minor aside on Empire Tree Development: (2:10:16)
In regards to Hero Development and the Item Forge: (2:17:59)
Conducting a siege is about more than just siege projects, it's about military intelligence (and also siege projects): (2:27:09)

We did it, 4 city cap perfectionist artisans is technically achievable still in-game without adept settlers: (3:34:51)
BioBreak: (3:43:17)
We're gonna run Tome of Subjugation because Tyrant Knights are a frontline unit and we've kinda been missing those, plus exotic mount "value" I suppose: (3:49:19)
Can we win an auto vs a Lost wizard down by 500 strength? SI SE PUEDE WITH A LINE OVER THE I: (4:05:50)

"I think our guys should be able to win this": (4:27:47)
The Battles of Sunrise: (4:44:50)
This is a battle at sea that we then revert so we can still finish the stream in style, only watch it if you want to learn that low tier units are *really* good on the ocean, especially with spawnkin: (5:04:24)
Shameful behavior over: (5:13:36)
WIZARD DUEL MANUAL BATTLE TIME and then we just kinda press on to their capital and auto them out so more chapters would be kinda superfluous: (5:24:41)
