How to unlock the Hope Is Kindled achievement in Age of Empires IV: Anniversary Edition - Definitive Guide

The English castle alarms are utilized by certain military buildings such as the KEEP and the Stone Wall Towers. These can be noted by having a yellow fire symbol hovering over the top. They will notify nearby units of incoming enemies and provide buffs of which are applied automatically.

The easiest and quickest method to obtain the achievement is to:

- Start a 1v1 skirmish on a large map with the AI set on easy.
- Start your age at Age IV with high resources.

- Build a long stone wall section (all one piece)
- Place 12 towers in a row along it.

Achievement should pop in-game after enemies have come close to your towers and the twelfth has linked!

Seems like you have to wait for a big enough attack to set at least 12 off too, a Scout won’t last long enough.

Regular watch towers work too.

Choose Absurd difficulty. On easy the AI wouldn't attack me. On Absurd they sent units within a few minutes

I started a game with an allied AI, constructed twelve towers and keep and nothing happened. I started another match against a hostile AI. This time, the towers lit up (apparent from the glowing icon above the structure) only after the enemy attacked my town. You need your tower network in place and then get attacked for the achievement to pop.
