~The Future of WoL - PART 5~
Latin American rework
Our very first culture, and one I consider to be brilliantly designed. It has a clear personality, many options for both competitive play and to play just for fun and, of course, beautiful and unique graphics. Still, the Latin Americans have a few structural issues and we will address this in this rework.
The first thing we wanted to change or, actually, to finish changing is their roster: Half the civilizations have a unique roster while the other half has the old european roster. When we rework Latin America all civilizations will share the same roster. Also, the same issue is present in their Homecity: it looks like a copy of the european one with a few unique cards. To change this, we will include a number of unique shared cultural cards that will tell the shared history of this people.
One of the biggest issues regarding game experience are the Town Hall and the coroneles: they require their own building, the upgrades are too specific and not too good and the coronel, above everything, has frustrating abilities. To fix that, we are going to focus on what they represent historically: the corrupt elites that ran Latin America. Coronels will now no longer have access to that ridiculous amount of broken abilities, but will now be able to train unique outlaw units that will do its job for him: You can hire guys to burn down buildings, raid villagers, go on sneaky missions, kill objectives, etc., etc. The coronel will then act like a Shogun. The Town hall, then, will include more technologies related to espionage and subterfuge, putting Latin America on par with other cultures.
Immigrants will also receive a small rework: First, you will see new immigrants. We will also tune some abilities so they are now more useful and villagers will work differently: you will get them for free, once per each ‘generation’. This way we have more space to make their abilities more powerful. Besides that, we are including more regional mercenaries, so your shipments and matches on latin american maps will be more colorful than ever.
And last but not least, you can expect medium to large range reworks on the Brazilians, the Colombians and the Argentinians and, perhaps, something else…
Anyway, that’s it for today! On my next post I will talk about the Religion rework. See you then.
