This mod introduces a new recon unit in industrial age, the explorer. It also give to scouts an upgrade option to become explorer when obsolete.


Features:
  • Adds a new recon unit: the explorer, to the game, which was inspired by the Scramble for Africa scenario of Brave New World Expansion.
  • The explorer act as a recon unit from the industrial age and offer an upgrade option to scout instead of becoming obsolete.
  • Unlike in the Scenario from Fireaxis, Explorers dont replace Archeologist. The archeology system was left untouched. Only the graphic and icons from the Explorer were extracted to be applied to a balanced recon unit for the era, made from scratch based on Scout.
  • The Explorer can be built when Rifling is discovered.
  • The Scout become obsolete when Rifling is discovered but can be upgraded to explorers.
  • The Explorer become obsolete when Flight is discovered.
  • All these changes have been also applied to unique scout unit, like the Shoshone Pathfinder
  • All these changes are reflected in Civilopedia (see screenshot)

Notes:
    I strongly recommend using all the three Scouts mod for the full experience:
    This mod is fully compatible with the 'Promotion Expansion pack', meaning the new units will uses the promotions from the pack if the 2 mods are enabled. If you are interested: Promotion Expansion pack Mod

Unit Details:
    Explorer
  • Weakest unit of the industrial age era, combat strength have been determined in proportion of the Scout/Warrior factor vs Industrial age equivalent, Rifleman.
    (Scout STR / Warrior STR X Rifleman STR) : 5/8x34= 21
  • Ignore terrain cost like Scouts.
  • Increased visibility and movement by 1 compared to Scouts.
  • Unlocked with the technology 'Rifling' and become obsolete with 'Flight'.
  • Has the same promotion list as Scouts.
  • Uses the 'Explorer' 3dModel and icons from the Scramble for Africa Scenario by Fireaxis.

can it be upgraded on ruin?

Is there a reason why this Unit becomes obsolete with flight? It is just as confusing as the scout becoming obsolete with scientific theory

Compatibility:

-Requires Brave New World Expansion

if you have brave new world, try a fresh new game with only this mod enabled and it will work. Then you can find wich other mod break compatibility with this one.

My mods are compatible together but may be incompatible with other mods from different modders.

Good luck !

I'm unable to upgrade my scouts into explorers with this mod.

hey really nice mod, but is there a way to remove the explorer from spawnable barbarian units ?? (they die in one attack)

Joshbird55 has a good idea there. Please complete the scouts' upgrade tree: make them upgradable to recon infantry (based on infantry), then to special forces (from marines/paras, invisible except to other recon units, helicopters, GDRs, and X-Com), finally to ghosts (stealthy X-com lite). The last two create a whole new gamut of tactical options to harass the enemy, and hopefully add both much fun and !!FUN!!.

gives an idea to have explorer upgrade to special forces unit

Feels like it belongs in the base game. Excellent addition. I love how the explorers can be used as an emergency army. Feels very desperate guerrilla warfare-like.

does this mod have compatibility issues with Brave new world expansion?
