Please add Billy the Kid as a skin for British Explorer.
Henry McCarty (September 17 or November 23, 1859 – July 14, 1881), alias William H. Bonney, better known as Billy the Kid, was an American outlaw and gunfighter of the Old West who is alleged to have killed 21 men before he was shot and killed at the age of 21.
Since Portugal now has a skin based on Lampiao a Brazilian bandit killed in 1938, its only fitting.
"Cangaço is the name given to a form of banditry in the Northeast region of Brazil, from the middle of the 19th century to the beginning of the 20th century . In this arid and very difficult to cultivate region (the sertão ), social relations are particularly harsh and the inequalities more glaring than elsewhere.
In a form of revolt against the domination of the landowners and the government, many men and women decided to become nomadic bandits (the cangaçeiros ), wandering the great expanses of the hinterland, seeking money, food, in a spirit of revenge."
A gentle reminder that Brazil is independent since 1822.
The analogy still works, because Cangaceiros are just as relevant to Portuguese right now as they would be if there was a Brazilian civ, which is not at all.
Sorry I misunderstood the phrase. Anyway until we have Brasil as a full, the closest to that civ is Portugal with the revolution.
Not the best ofc, but I highly doubt that devs will change anything. If there wasnt a USA or Mexico civs, I would be okay with USA explorers to British or Mexican explorers for Spanish.
Im not when there is a pletora of choices from Bandeirantes to Navigators that first of all fit the timeline, and second were actually Portuguese.
I would even say this is disrespectful for Portugal and Brasil because aparently our countries and culture is all the same for the devs.
At the very least make Brazil as a Civ instead of once again just making stuff up for Portugal that does not belong there like Organ Guns.
yes, thats true that portugal needs better skins, but again Brasil can be viewed as a legacy of Portugal.
I totally agree on the organ gun (swivel gun could be a replacement and make the organ gun a merc version) but hopefully ports will get their rework, but probably this is offtopic.
