Chileans

Besides, we all know that Chile is the best country of Chile

It may sound bad, but I believe that Spain should completely replace its mills and plantations with haciendas, its grenadiers should be soldiers and the card, viceroyalty of new Spain should send 2 wagons of hacienda; allow them to train villagers and increase the hacienda limit by +2. (the other effects should be removed)

I was thinking that the card “Viceroyalty of New Spain” could be renamed as “System of Viceroyalties” and unlock the haciendas for the Spanish or perhaps you could add cards like “Viceroyalty of Peru” that send 2 Prospector Wagon and Soldados, as possible idea

Returning to the main topic, I have thought of some cards that could be added whether Chile is Civilization or Revolution

• If Chile had Haciendas unlocked, it would add a card called “Casas Patronales” that support 10 population and cost -10%
• A card called “Inquilinaje” that increases the passive production of Haciendas and reduces cattle training time by 10%
• A possible card called “Revolución Liberal” that turns villagers into Rotos
• A card called “Armada del Pacifico” that that increases the limit of frigrats, their attack and hit points

Perhaps some of the ideas will interest the developers, it is still great to imagine more content for Chile

Chile is a very beautiful country, greetings from Colina 1 Carcel (Venezia)

There’s a lot of people from Little Venice there, though

I deliverately avoided putting Haciendas in my civ designs because they warp civilizations too much. Haciendas do too many things and make the economy of the civilization pretty much revolve around themselves.

They are fine for Mexico as the civ is, indeed, designed around them as an integral part of the civilization, but if every Latin American country gets them they’d start feeling the same very, very fast.

So I’d rather explore other venues of design.

Speaking of which, I updated the design in the first post, nothing big, just shuffled some units around. Got a friend who pointed out thematically the Chupilca fits better with the Rotos than the Civicos and that, itself, allowed me to give the roster a tad bit extra flavor by making it less standard, Unique grenadiers isn’t something that has been explored a lot by the main game, so giving Chile an unit that functions similarly to the Humbaraci, although by other means felt like something interesting to add.

Buena decisión de diseño no incluir las Haciendas en Chile, sería muy parecido a México. Pero, realmente, ¿qué tan importantes fueron las Haciendas en Chile?

[HoopThrower]

Era bastante importante. Como en cualquier parte de hispanoamérica.

Siento que si vamos a hacer varias civs del continente es mucho mejor enfatizar las diferencias que aquellas cosas que todas las colonias tenían en común, porque si bien la economía a través del continente sí variaba mucho de un lugar a otro, eso no quita que algunas instituciones fuesen comunes a todo el continente.

I’d love this. I personally really like revolts as age 5 alternatives–and its a good way to flesh out different countries which can’t really be their own civs.

Considering current events (PUP), maybe in the next patch they will turn Chile and Peru into imperial level revolutions.

PS: In the PUP, there are files that seem to indicate that there will be more European revolutions soon, I bet they will be similar to the French revolution.

I agree, a potential chilean civilization doesn’t need to be a copy of mexico.

PS: Hopefully you also do concepts for a potential Peru, surely we would all learn something interesting.
