[R&F] New Years Clues

[Eagle Pursuit]

There is a chief called Duckhunter, but Wikipedia only has a picture of him.

Check out this link of the Cree, has a lot of information that might be useful in the UU and other abilities.

If the clues are hinting at the leader, the buffalo pound makes since as well as the peace pipe for Chief Poundmaker.

Clues always referred to civ (like the maps) as well as leaders (the rest).
So maybe the decoy is the hint for the Cree in general? Or the peace pipe is a general hint for NA civ?

 

[leandrombraz]

Maybe next week we will have our first clues that we don't know the answer to previously because of a leak... or maybe they will leak all the remaining Civs in the weekend

 

[Ondolindë]

I also think it is Chief Poundmaker or as I rather would have him be called come tomorrow: Pîhtokahanapiwiyin.

 

[slyone14]

Personally I think it will Chief Poundmaker or Big Bear. And they will be a cultural/economic focused civ. Based on everything I read they were not a warlike tribe. They tended to sell weapons to other tribes, like Blackfoot, who would in turn protect them. So I think they will be centered around trade and gain bonuses from them. As for the UU, possibly a Unique Great Merchant? Not sure there though

 

[liv]

A made pound. I would guess poundmaker as well.

 

[Kheznik]

Sounds like Big Bear;

"Great ones press onward"

He resisted signing the treaties and wanted to keep fighting much longer than the others. He also has, by a mile, the longest entry of all the potential Cree leaders in the Canadian encyclopedia, which is usually a pretty good indicator, I think.

There is even a holiday celebrated by people with Cree heritage in Quebec called "Goose Break" where everybody still goes goose hunting.

They did use Mvemba instead of Afonso (which is used much more), so my hopes are up for this as well.

 

[Eagle Pursuit]

Well, unless someone can figure out how to tie the decoys to a leader, I guess Pihtokahanpiwiyin is the most likely suspect.

 

[Wingednosering]

Probably Poundmaker. I was hoping for Piapot.

So tomorrow we will see city names like Moose Jaw and A Pile of Bones . Cut Knife Hill should be the capital of a poundmaker cree

Hopefully they did enough research to mostly have Cree city names rather than English or French.

 

[liv]

I think there has to be a mix of them as usual

 

[Wingednosering]

It's a difficult ask since 99% of their audience wouldn't be able to pronounce the Cree names and some might not fit in the city UI.

 

[liv]

It is not like Rome was called Rome or anything

 

[Alexander's Hetaroi]

Hopefully they did enough research to mostly have Cree city names rather than English or French.

I can see Cut Knife being the capital if Poundmaker is the leader. Other cities can be Saskatoon and maybe Winnipeg.

Roma?

All this talk about decoys makes me think it's a decoy...

TAMAR OF GEORGIA INCOMING!!!!
