I wonder what their seventh idea is.
 
Hmmmm... I mean, yes, it gives a hint of options, but everybody knows that Naval-focusses ideas tend to be rather useless with the current naval combat mechanism. Then again, the ideas fit to Mogadishus position.Assuming they survive Kilwa.
 
And suddenly I have an urge to play in Africa when AoW comes out.
Building anything as the Mog will be cheap if you take the right idea groups.
 
I have to assume it's +0.1 or +10% to goods produced, or Mogadishu will be the new easy World Conquest start. ;)

I am definitely happy to see more East African stuff. I frankly think Sub-Saharan Africa is underpowered at the start of the game and the historical significance of the area deserves more emphasis than the region currently has.
