Lovely DD as always, just curious what if any of the unit models are going to be copied for the Philippines? Seems out of place that they will be the one region to not have unit models. Where they out of the art focus?

Hello @SaintDaveUK and thank you for this Dev Diary.
Actually, I'm not able to see the terrain illustrations in the province UI because of my 1366x768 screen resolution. So, will I be able to see those monument illustrations anyway?

Cannons are basically fire attack for boats. I guess it had to have some non-zero value or it's meant to represent assorted pre-gunpowder ranged weapons on boats.

...wait, there's supposed to be a terrain picture on colonised provinces?
...huh. Why does Paradox hate small screens/and or fear scrolling interfaces?

No native American units? I'm was actually hyped more than I was supposed to be.
Amazing work on the all the renders, though. You've really outdone yourselves!!

Does this mean Transport Combat Ability could be a buff given to natives? Tbh I just want to see the Transport Combat Ability modifier used somewhere lol

This is a very welcome change that is going to really improve game play in the Americas. Really looking forward to it.

They weren't originally intended to be a part of the patch's focus. They were tweaked based on popular demand in a content designer's down time afaik.

Why lump unit models with actual gameplay features? I don't want to pay for unit models, why do you no longer seperate gameplay and cosmetic content?

If you have ever modded in a new historicsl tag you will realise that that VAST amount of work on the content designers side is research. Go through dozens or hundreds of sources to check out what is worth an event, what are fitting NI etc. Implementing those takes almost no time, you could do dozens of tags a day but researching what to implement and actually finding proper sources takes ages.

Will the other five civilized tribes besides the Cherokee get some unique missions and events? Here https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/chickasaw-and-choctaw-mission-ideas.1459043/ I proposed some for my own tribe and the Choctaw as well as desperate changes to the ideas because hostile core creation in existing ideas seems odd since the emperor update got rid of them for tags in Europe

Nice. btw while you are working on unit models since 2013, have u fixed austrian models? They would glitch on retreat animation, I guess.
is there a possibility of the Seminoles being formed in the 1700s by event or is that unlikely as Florida will be colonized by that point? Also an alternative could be an event for all natives bordering a western nation what their policy should be for run away slaves they could be like the creek confederacy and draft them into their own plantations granting goods produced or production efficiency bonus while the red path of the Seminole could give a small manpower boost.

The new unit models are very cool and I am happy with confirmation that polynesians will get new army models, when playing in Oceania or SEA I will miss appropriate advisor portraits, but maybe they will be added later, someday.

Will this allow migration across sea zones; for example; into the Caribbean?
