Latin American general post

Wasn’t this a thread for suggesting civs south of Mexico? When did it become a strategy sharing page?

Well technically the title is (Latin American general post) I think sharing ideas about Latin American revolutions is not wrong.

But let’s do one thing, I think I can rescue an old theme that I would like to see come true.

Argentina Civ Design cuz Might as Well

I actually been building up this civ since about exactly a year ago, but been coding it at a snail’s pace and don’t really have the capacity to afford art assets right now, so might as well share the design and gauge people’s opinions: Features Starts with 5 Gauchos, 300 food, 200 wood, 100 coin. Gauchos have a lower train limit than Settlers (85). Choose Federal States to advance in Age and add new Home City Cards to the Deck, starting with fewer cards (21) than other civilizations. Receive …

Unfortunately, you can no longer comment on it, but I think it’s a good time to resurrect it.

• Infernal : Statswise closer to the Uhlan or the Steppe Rider than the Hussar. They attack faster the less hit points they have. Leaves a foot version of itself with half-hitpoints when killed. Upgrades to Escolta Libertad on Industrial Age.

I see the (Infernal) more like the mounted rifleman and I see the (Escolta) more as an intermediate point between the winged hussar and the royal horseman.

• Blandengue : Tracks units it has dealt damage to, like the Mexican salteador. Otherwise works mostly like a regular dragoon, probably with less hit points but, of course, leaves a version of itself behind with half hit points when killed.

They are militias, perhaps Argentina should have a system similar to the one in the United States, only instead of having OP militias, we could have the normal militias, but with improvements so that they give us cavalry units (Blandengues) or light infantry (Patricios).

• Estancia
  Combines Livestock Pen with the Stable. While still costing 200 Wood.
  Trains:

• Infernal : Statswise closer to the Uhlan or the Steppe Rider than the Hussar. They attack faster the less hit points they have. Leaves a foot version of itself with half-hitpoints when killed. Upgrades to Escolta Libertad on Industrial Age.

• Blandengue : Tracks units it has dealt damage to, like the Mexican salteador. Otherwise works mostly like a regular dragoon, probably with less hit points but, of course, leaves a version of itself behind with half hit points when killed.

• Sheep. Cuz, you know, it’s a Livestock Pen

I like the idea, but in my opinion I would also leave the hussar and the dragon to Argentina, especially since that would justify making their emblematic cavalry units more powerful in exchange for costing more population. (It would be something similar to what happens with France and her cuirassier)

PS: I would add some method to automate the production of livestock and food, I don’t think it is very different from the Dutch banks, but I could be wrong.

• Pardo : Age II Halberdier. Basically holds itself better than a Pikeman even in late game, by having greater base damage and less reliance on multiplier, although being slower than Pikemen.

I would also add some card that allows you to turn them into mounted grenadiers.

Artillery Foundry:
Trains

• Petard
• Falconet
• Culverin
• Mortar
• Horse Grenadier: Takes the place of the Horse Artillery. Fairly similar stats to the already available Horse Grenadier ## ### ### leaves behind a foot version of itself if killed. (IV)

I would convert the mounted grenadier into a unit similar to the papal lancer and its foot version into a version of the giant grenadier, but I know that no dev or modder agrees with me.

I would remove the falconete and exchange it for the Artisanal Cannon, also I would not remove the Horse Artillery. The Petard I would change it for Exploding Cart.
Note: WOL

• House
  Literally just a house

It will sound silly, but I would like Argentina to have an architecture that depends on the biome, in cold places it could have structures similar to those of the Germans and in the rest of the scenarios Mediterranean structures.
