That's the point. Read the event, and you'll understand it. You should ONLY be able to discover either Greenland or the Azores. ONLY, so take your pick and keep yourself there.


Well I managed to discover the Eastern coast of Canada and Vinland.. mt explorer died the second i reached there, lucky... and i have 2 colonys there.. im gonna try to share explorations with Vinland.. but so far no luck...

What!!!!????

With Henry???

There's something wrong there. He shouldn't last long enough to get there.


EDIT: I just tested it again. You can't get there before he dies. Are you talking about the second explorer, Keogban Ua Tuathaigh?

Judging from his tone it sounds like he's reporting on a continous game so I'd bet he's talking about the second guy.

No, with henry..... he died literally the very second he got to the coast off eastern Canada... I managed to befriend Vinland and traded for maps, but only got one seazone i think...

Edit: Come to think of it, it may be because i sent the explorer out as soon as i got him, and sent the conquistador in a fleet that would follow him, so i didnt have to wait to load them.

Henry is a very specific explorer who lasts long enough to find only Greenland or only the Azores. The conquistador lats a little longer to ensure that you discover the land zones, not just the sea zones. Top allow someone to uncover the mainland of the Americas in 1430 would ruin any semblance of game balance. It's also not very good story telling. Then the next explorer lasts long enough to discover parts of Newfoundland and Acadie. You could send the person further south if you wish, of course. This is still a huge leg up in a mod which keeps an eye on balance between nations so that it has value for MP play.
 
Man, I got pissed ages back (and, looking through my screenshots, remembered a couple days ago) when I was playing Eire and chose to go to the Azores, and then to the Carribbean Sea, and then the blizzard event fired anyways.
 
Good point. This is why its still beta. :)

I'll change that. Thanks.

Oh, you mean it wasn't supposed to be like that?

Awesome.


Yeah, but I've added an event for the caribbean area title "Dysentry and Famine" basically the same event, but a little weaker. He he.
