Lenape vils count towards the vil count but can be trained when at vil cap

:play_button: FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

  • 100% of the time / matches I play (ALWAYS)

:play_button: REPRODUCTION STEPS

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Play a map where Lenape are present (either roll them on unknown or play the historical battle)
  2. Train some Lenape vils
  3. Observe your vil count approaches the cap
  4. Reach your vil cap
  5. Train more Lenape vils
  6. Observe you can train beyond the vil cap

:play_button: EXPECTED RESULT

Lenape vils should have consistent behavior. They should either count towards the vil count and NOT be trainable at vil cap, or they should not count towards vil cap. In my opinion, the lenape vils are strong enough (given they cost zero pop), that applying vil cap is a reasonable offset

They also can’t build all buildings available to certain civilizations such as the African ones. Can’t build Fields and can’t gather from them when playing as African civs for example.
