Want to know how to build Outpost in Age of Wonders 4? Strategy games have never been hugely popular but have remained immortal classics for many years. While Age of Wonders 4 has not stood the test of time, it has every chance of becoming one of the favorite games for strategy fans. Often, your nation needs to expand its borders or build new cities to prosper; this is also true for Age of Wonders 4. But before you can create a city, you must build an Outpost in Age of Wonders 4, and today we will tell you how to do it.
Building Outpost in Age of Wonders 4
At the beginning of the game, the tutorial will briefly explain that you will have to create an Outpost before you start building a city in a new province. But the details of this are not specified. First, you need a hero to create Outpost in Age of Wonders 4. It can be your state ruler or another hero you can hire as you progress through the game. Other characters like Scout (with the description outpost builder) cannot build an Outpost. Also, make sure that the province where you want to create an Outpost does not belong to other states or lies on the border of their territories. Otherwise, the area will be empty, but the corresponding button for building an Outpost will not appear.
Now that you know all the nuances, here’s what you need to do to build Outpost in Age of Wonders 4:
- To begin, select one hero and send it to a province that meets the requirements (the requirements described above and your personal preferences in territories).
- Next, click on a province area or on a hero, after which a window will appear on the screen offering to build an Outpost. The yellow line will indicate which territories will come under your control.
- Next, click the Build Outpost button at the bottom of the screen. But first, make sure you have enough money to pay for this building.

After the specified time, the Outpost will appear in the province of your choice. All local materials, treasures, and minerals are now yours. And with a little more money, you can upgrade your Outpost to the city. But remember that the number of cities under the control of one player has a limit. And if you exceed it, you will lose a significant part of the income from cities. Therefore, before building an Outpost, choose the best territories.
