Civ 6: Portugal Reaction & Analysis! (Civ 6 New Frontiers Pass)

[@2gtomkins]

It's hard to say for sure, but I don't think Portugal gets the 4 gold + 1 production for the feitoria tile. The feitoria is in another civ's or a city-state's tile. They get the tile bonus if they work that tile. Portugal can't get the tile bonus because it can't work tiles except in its own cities. Portugal gets the 4 gold+ 1 production (6 gold and 1.5 production once you factor in its 50% bonus yields for trade routes) only if it has a trade route to that city. Again, not 100% clear that's what they mean, but I think that's the interpretation that makes most sense. The tile bonus does raise the question of what happens if Portugal captures a city that has a feitoria. If it doesn't disappear on capture (they can't be removed, but maybe that just means no player can remove them, but the game system gets to remove them), does Portugal get the tile bonus yields? Does it get the trade route bonus for internal routes to that city, or for international routes it sends out?

It looks fun!

This is going to be sweet.

This seafaring Mali looks fun, although I don't like Portugal as a Civ, but well. I'm sure his agenda will cover the exploring topic.

Now, it should be pointed out that while the destination needs to have a port, that is, as far as I can tell, the only requirement. Portugal could theoretically start in the middle of the continent and trade with the coastal civs, or they could be on the coast and send a land-based trade route to a Civ on the far coast

Basically Water Mali.

Combine this bonuses with the Torre de Belem and you will be very overpowered.

[@williamtheconqueror7807]

Great Zimbabwe and Colossus as well.

[@Tytoalba777]

Not to mention Democracy and the Trade policies

Is this gonna be the last civ of Civ 6?

[@sayathekitsune3775]

[@robertgronewold3326]

Despite my feelings about Portugal as the final civ of the Frontier Pass, I am VERY down for this civ.

[@thisnameanothername2156]

[@pablor.sepulveda9929]

@@thisnameanothername2156 It'll be replaced because Lisbon is Portugal's capital city

[@felipebarros1572]

No defensive or adjacency bonuses at all? sounds bad.
