▶️ If you'd like to enter, reply below with a picture of a sea monster you'd send your armies to fight. 🦑 🐉

See you in my next entry! ✒️

All peasants were free—except serfs and slaves. A serf could find freedom in these three ways: escaping, being released, or purchasing the land they worked on.

Thank you for joining me today, Age community! I hope you've had fun and you'll join me for more events in the future.

We'll have this be the last trivia question, then we can wrap everything up in our closing thread and give you a chance to throw your name into my metaphorical hat for an #AgeIV code. 😉 Thanks for joining me today.

#12: Were all medieval peasants free?

That's the one! A is the correct answer, but you probably knew that already with how often you play. An army is only as good as its villagers!

I've got two more questions for you all, and then maybe a few extra things just for fun. Back to trivia for now.

#11: What type of labor were medieval peasants best known for?

Server Maintenance COMPLETE 👑

If you experience any NEW issues as a result of the maintenance, please post them to this thread. ✍️

If you can't connect, please reach out to our Support team so they can work with you to investigate.

I'll give your brains a break for a little while. Let's chat some more!

What's the most embarrassing way you've been defeated in Age of Empires IV?

Yeah, you've got it. That was an easy one, right? 😉 Larger horses were used to carry heavily armored soldiers, smaller ones were used for quick and agile attacks!

📢 Server maintenance is kicking off now! Apologies for the disruption.

Updates will be posted here! 🌞

We are also still hosting the Map Monsters Trivia event if you'd like to spend some time with us in that thread.

Server maintenance is kicking off soon, but we'll keep playing here while it's ongoing! We'll do some more interactive questions after this one to keep you entertained while you wait. ❤️

#9: Take your best guess! Some medieval horses were the size of a modern day pony.

The answer I'm looking for is A—Rats! BUT, birds is not incorrect either. 😉 I mentioned pigs in my journal before, but rats were used for the same purpose!

Legend says that they were used in times of medieval warfare for torture as well. 🐀💀

Perhaps this will trip you up again...

#8: What other animal was used to burn down enemy territory?

I am surprised! I thought for sure you all had this one. The correct answer is B—Assassin bugs! Like scorpions, they were also housed in terracotta vases to be thrown at enemy soldiers. And even after they were expired, they were often ground up into poison... 💀
