Expeditions: Conquistador: Difference between revisions

* [[Authority Equals Asskicking]]: The titular conquistador can be from a noble family, although said conquistador doesn't actually fight in combat personally. Many of your initial followers are mentioned as having been in your family's service or gratitude in one way or another.

* [[Big Bad]]: The Aztec Empire is framed as this, though depending on your choices and affiliations, it's possible to align with them.

* [[Early Game Hell]]: Coming into the New World unprepared or ill-equipped is a guaranteed way of making the start of the game even more difficult than it already is.

* [[Gender Is No Object]]: There are quite a few female characters who can be recruited into the expedition (from medics to soldiers) and otherwise join your squad. It is lampshaded however in-game how this is rather unusual and contrary to the usual expectations of women in Spanish society at the time.

* [[Relationship Upgrade]]: It's possible to romance various NPCs.

* [[Rule of Cool]]: [[Word of God]] is that this is partially the reason why the developers chose Spanish exploration and colonialism as a major theme, at least compared to other European colonial attempts in the New World.

* [[Wretched Hive]]: Santo Domingo, the colonial capital on Hispaniola isn't in the best of shape. Justified in that it's still a relatively "new" settlement at the fringes of Spanish rule and that the ruling governor is corrupt. And none too pleased with your expedition on his doorstep.
