The next DLC should be African (Berbers/Almohad Caliphate, Songhai, Ethiopians, Kanem, Kongo, Shona)…

I would also enjoy that. The Malians were my favorite civ for the longest time. I requested another Malian civ really early on, but people said they don’t need a sub faction for the Malians. An entire other African civ would be nice as well if they don’t plan on giving the Malians a second, or just introduce the new African civ and a new sub civ for the Malians.

The two DLC we need ATM are :

One African civ + Portuguese (Reconquista ?)

One Meso civ + Spanish (Conquistadores ?)
