Hey, nice design over there, I'm in love with the Ostriches and the Baobabs, it really feels like AOE 2 African Kingdoms (in 3D of course)!I also really like the Slavery feature, how did you code it in the first place BTW?
Also, will the new african factions speak their native tongues, like Yorumba for example? I know it's hard to find native speakers (it's a miracle the AOE 2 AK civilisations speak their native languages in the first place), but it would be great. Last but not least, have you considered adding Abyssinia (Ethiopians)?
Good luck with your project, it's really promising!
Hey, about how the slavery is working: the African villagers when killed won't die immediatley. Instead they will fall out for few seconds before they actually die (much like huntable mechanism). The fallen African villager will contain unique resource called "slavery points" which can be only collected by "slave master". Slave masters will be available to certain civilizations like portuguese & british. Slave masters can train slaves.
All new civilzations will speak their own native languages. Also new minor natives will speak their own native language.
I have not considered Eithiopians as main civilaztion but I am considering to include them as minor natives.
