We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.
This is a fiction/fan codex: entries describe an in-universe canon. Our audits check canon and internal consistency — external fact-checking does not apply the way it does on real-subject codexes.

Julius Caesar — Julius Caesar does not have a dedicated campaign in Age of Empires II: The Conquerors; his primary campaign role is in Age of Empires I: Rise of Rome.
Leonidas — There is no 'Greek' civilization playable in Age of Empires II; the game features medieval civilizations (e.g., Byzantines), while ancient Greeks are featured in Age of Empires I.
Leonidas — The Hoplite unit does not exist in Age of Empires II; the game utilizes Spearmen, Pikemen, and Halberdiers instead.
Attila the Hun — The civilization bonus described (Blacksmith upgrades for cavalry attack and armor 50% cheaper) and the Steppe Lancer unit belong to the Bulgars civilization in Age of Empires II DE, not the Huns.
Teutons — The Teuton civilization bonus grants +200 HP specifically to Town Centers, not Castles.
Teutons — No civilization in Age of Empires II has a unique bonus that specifically increases Champion attack damage.
Chinese — The claim that the Chinese are the only civilization with access to the Chu-Ko-Nu in Age of Empires II canon is incorrect; the Vietnamese civilization also utilizes the Chu-Ko-Nu as their Unique Unit (introduced in Rise of the Rajas).
Japanese — The entry incorrectly claims Japanese villagers rely on other bonuses rather than increased haul size, whereas they canonically receive a carrying capacity bonus.
Japanese — The entry falsely states Samurai gain attack speed per age advancement, while their unique trait is actually an attack damage bonus per age.
Egyptians — Listing 'Obelisk' as the Unique Building without qualification is factually misleading for the franchise canon; Egyptians do not possess a Unique Building in Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition, and the Obelisk mechanic is exclusive to Age of Empires I.
Alexander the Great — Alexander the Great was not introduced officially in Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition (2021); he is a central campaign figure from the original Age of Empires I (1997).
Alexander the Great — There is no official Macedonian civilization or Alexander-specific mechanics in Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition; claims regarding his in-game civilization benefits and unit synergies (Hetairoi) are factually incorrect for this title.
