Castle Town (Sakurada Aoi)

**Castle Town** led by Sakurada is a custom civilization in the works by Mathetes tou Megalou Alexandrou, based upon Castle Town Dandelion.

## Overview

### Dawn of Man

The people of Castle Town look upon you, Sakurada Aoi! You may have not been the official ruler of Castle Town in the canon, but would have certainly become one if you haven't withdrawn from the race. While you've withdrawn because you feared the repercussions of your abilities, in this world you've mastered your true abilities, and through that your people gave you their trust. While your ability is great, you have also proven to be an intelligent person with a strong suit in memory.

Benevolent Aoi, the people of Castle Town have put their faith in you, and are ready to embark on a journey towards a great nation without a doubt in your leaderhsip. Will you meet their expectations? Can you build a civilizaiton that will stand the test of time?

### Strategy

Sakurada Aoi's Castle Town is a Great People civilization with a straightforward bonus. Aoi's most apparent bonus is the Science bonus, as the trait and the Castle Town University's effect combined allows Aoi's Great Scientists to bulb for much more  Science than those of other civilization in its situation. Not only that, Writers produce 20% more  culture, Merchants generate 20% more  Influence and  Gold from trade missions, Artist  Golden Ages last 20% longer, and Engineers 20% more  Production from rushing. However, Engineers have a unintended but special bonus that allows them to immediately finish the building if Hurry Production can fill the meter without the 20% bonus, allowing Aoi a significant bonus on Wonder competition.

Because Aoi's encouraged to use Great Peoples' One-time abilities, Aoi is encouraged to trigger Golden Ages and We Love the King Days to generate True Friend Unique Units that plant into Great People Improvements to compensate.
