The post The fortress of Buda (Hungary) in 1696 and the role of Don Manuel Diego López de Zúñiga first appeared on History Lab.

]]> The death of the 10th Duke of Béjar (Don Manuel Diego López de Zúñiga) while fighting in Buda in 1686 is shrouded in a halo of mysticism and personal myth that lasted until almost a century later due to his role as a “martyr” for Christianity and the Crown, fighting the enemy hosts until his final moment.
In Hungary, Don Manuel played a leading role in the battles, especially in repelling the Turks on Margarita Island on 20th June and in the Castle of San Gerardo on 29th June, where his legend continues to grow with the success of his fearful advance to recover the trenches of this site, disobeying the marshal’s orders to retreat and returning safe and sound. In addition to this, he will provide support during the construction of bypasses at the fortress of Buda.
It was on 13 July 1686 that his legend was finally forged. During the final attack on the fortress of Buda, the artillerymen managed to bring down the inner wall, forming a kind of ramp from the rubble that allowed access to the interior of the Ottoman defences. It was Don Manuel who once again took the front line in the Christian offensive and facilitated the entry of the rest of the troops. The danger of being between two bastions was obvious, and at one point in the battle the Duke received a mortal musket wound which, after three days, ended his life on 16 July 1686, the day of El Carmen.

The post Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition first appeared on History Lab.

]]> Age of Empires II features historical campaigns based on a novel storyline that spans a vast period between the 5th and 16th centuries. This definitive edition was released in 2019 to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the original video game released in 1999, making some corrections and technologically improving an already excellent base.
Historically the game features the campaigns of 18 civilisations, starting in the Middle Ages after the fall of the Western Roman Empire and running through to the European Renaissance of the 16th century. The goal is therefore to strategically manage resources to build a vast empire and overcome other enemy factions.
The campaigns take a historical look at the lives and triumphs of different key figures from our past, such as William Wallace, Joan of Arc, Saladin and Genghis Khan, among others. As for the factions, this year’s factions are divided into Western European, Central European, Middle Eastern and Far Eastern factions, each with their own unique units and historically known warriors.

]]> This instalment of the Age of Empires saga focuses on 14 of the most powerful civilisations in Europe, the Americas and Asia, spanning a historical period from the 16th to the 19th centuries. In this definitive edition, the graphics and music have been remastered, including all the expansions released to date and other never-before-seen content. The civilisations available include Spain, England, France, Portugal, Russia, Germany and many others.
The game’s setting focuses on the era of European colonisation of the Americas, with the Old World nations facing off against the newly developing powers. New in comparison to the previous game, each civilisation has a detailed 3D metropolis, and troop progression is added through role-playing elements. In addition, with the new content already added, it allows the option of playing independence revolutions to rise up against the colonising civilisation.

The post Age of Empires IV first appeared on History Lab.

]]> Age of Empires returns 16 years later to demonstrate why it is one of the most recognised sagas in historical strategy. On this occasion it combines the management that brought it so much success in its time with other innovative tools that facilitate the entry of both the new player to the strategy genre, thanks to the complete integrated tutorials, and the veteran who is looking for a challenge to match and who can handle more complex game mechanics and combat techniques.
Historically, this time it seeks to recreate the great battles that led to the building of our world as we know it. Through 8 civilisations, passing through England, China, France or the Sultanate of Delhi, we will face four great campaigns: the Norman conquest of England, the Hundred Years’ War, the Grand Duchy of Moscow and the history of the Mongol Empire. All these elements centre the game from the Dark Ages to the Renaissance of the 16th century.
