[NFP] Speculation - Possible Game Mode

[Alexander's Hetaroi]

Davey Crockett
Jim Bowie

These are Texan heroes, not American.

There's already a mod that imports the assets from the scenario to the main game. I don't know if it's up to date with the current version of the game - check the workshop.

I really hope we get a epidemic/pandemic mode. People can say it's insensitive at this time sure, but we're living in a historical pandemic - of which there has been many, and they have significantly altered the course of human history. It's in my opinion a greatly missed opportunity to not have disease play a bigger role in the game.

I agree.
I'm typing this as a hurricane is basically at my house right now and I don't find them, or a hypothetical pandemic mode, insensitive at all.

Jim Bowie was a Louisiana Hero for decades before he ever went to Texas, and Crockett was a Tennessee representative in fhe US Congress before he ever crossed the Mississippi River as well.
Mind you, Texas has tried to appropriate them, but strictly speaking Sam Houston and Sam Walker the Texas Ranger would be far more definitely 'Texan' Heroes, not that te game needs any.

Been through hurricanes in Virginia and Florida - one of several reasons why I settled in the Pacific Northwest!

Keep your head down and Good Luck.

I know all of that considering I'm pretty sure we have appropriated them because they are a focal point when talking about Texas History.

Fortunately we aren't getting the worst of it unlike Louisiana who already got hit harder earlier this year, considering right now I still have power typing this.

Perhaps this one is from SS Mode, used for LeyLines Resource.

Resource yields outside territories reminds me of colonies or claiming some resources before others. Interesting.

It's actually Improvement_YieldsOutsideTerritories,and it seems to be used for the Vampire Castles. But they could also use them for something else in the upcoming Packs/Updates.

I think it was @TheMarshmallowBear who cleared in another thread that that's the Vampire Castle effect.

Like Feitorias.

If you mean Trading Posts, Yeah, that would be awesome !

He means a potentially unique improvement for a hypothetical Portugal Civ.

Was it a Unique Improvement for Portugal in CiV? I thought Feitorias were use by Europeans in General. Portugal would make more sense for a possible Economic Mode than Vietnam. Perhaps Vietnam is for later, so we can get Portugal + Kublai Khan in January?

If Portugal is coming it would only be in March. Feitorias were the unique improvement for Portugal in Civ IV and V.

All NFP DLCs so far were themed geographically so it would make much more sense to have an asia pack with vietnam and kublai together. Also Europe already had one DLC in NFP so I guess Portugal won't come with NFP.
