Hate to revive, but I gotta say this - with the additions of the Royal Guard unique skins and the clear fact that more effort was put into the European Royal Houses than any minor civs prior to them… you can’t help but think how true this is.
Every Euro unit is at least attempted to be built on European history, but there’s a whole 1 unit among 30 in the Tortuamerican civs based on history.
Add in Mesoamerica, and that becomes 4 in 43 - the Otontin Slinger, Eagle Knight, and Jaguar Knight are all loosely based on history, though their actual in-game representations don’t reflect their historical usage.
Can we get an expansion similar to this that will actually give the Native Americans some research behind their… everything?
Right now, the entire continent is a loose collection of fiction, written by game devs with only the slightest idea of what actually happened there.
ADD: This is a game series based on history, but there’s an entire continent (two, really, but South America is its own thing) that was created with minimal effort and about an hour’s worth of research using children’s picture books as sources.
Please, can we get a full rework over the Americas, with the same level of care put into them as the Europeans?
