Blockquote * Victorian Era - Like the French ‘Napoleonic Era’, this advances Ind. Rev British into the Imperial Age. Further shipments from this include Workhouse (increase garrison limit of Factories), Maxim Guns (ship Gatling Guns - historically the British invented the machine gun, so they can ship Gatling Guns in lieu of a proper model). The current VA upgrade (via House of Hannover) is renamed to ‘Georgian Era’.
I really like this idea. I don’t think the original game mentions Britain’s Industrial Revolution at all!! The only hint to the industrial revolution is through a factory card available only to other European civs (not including the brits). Introducing a unique industrial revolution card for the brits will be a great opportunity to create some lovely economic bonuses surrounding the factory.
Blockquote Therefore, Italian and Prussian civs would be prioritized if the developers wanted to add a brand new Age Up mechanic to some European civs.
See my post on New Age Up Mechanic for the British to see my ideas for a new age up style for euro type cigs.
