[0.86] Capitar's unique faction ability needs to be removed/updated/replaced

from Elemental Forums

Caravans have been removed from the game (correct me if I'm wrong on this), but Capitar's unique faction ability, "Legacy of Serrane" is that caravans cannot be attacked and give diplomatic bonuses or something.

 

This is on the initial screen where a player chooses his/her sovereign and faction.

 

 

 

cheers,

I wouldn't argue against updating this trait now that caravans have been limited. But they are still in the game. They are just auto-built. And there is the Economic Treaty which sends a caravan to an opponents capital city. That's an immediate +10% gildar. I often set these treaties right after I meet a new faction. It gives me a road to use for eventual conquest, and as the caravan moves it reveals the map and eventually the location of that factions capital. It's a good way to locate the other factions. But the caravans often get killed. But not Capitars :~)

I was confused by this, too. So caravans exist, you just can't build them? Interesting. I like the concept here, but I'm not sure how well that will actually play out...

Ah... interesting.  Alright, couldn't remember if they were removed, or just the ability to manually build them were.

 

thx.
