So, do you think Portugal still has a place in? I'll be shocked if they/we don't... especially considering Brazil is in.
Unless Firaxis, for some reason, thinks Brazil will encompass Portugal. Which would be ridiculous. It would be the same as saying the United States = UK.
Also, considering the Scramble for Africa scenario, not having Portugal would be really, really weird - once again, unless they somehow fit the Brazilian civilization there... which would be ridiculous. Is there any case of a Scenario which had a base game civilization re-branded with a different name? (say, a Brazil which became Portugal in the Scramble for Africa scenario?)
Anyway, if Portugal's in, who/how do you think it is going to be?
Capital - Lisbon
UU - Nau (carrack) / Bandeirantes [hardly, now that Brazil is in - it would fit Brazil more, even though the bandeirantes were Portuguese] / aventureiros (the Portuguese who explored Asia, on their own)
UB - Feitoria-Fábrica (same as in C IV) / Engenho (sugar-factory, once again could easily fit the Brazilian civilization) / a unique dockyard
