New Clans

The 9 new clans feature major industries in Scotland before and during the Industrial Revolution and historic clans that were associated with these.

Here is an introduction into 4 out of the 9 new clans:

• Clan Sinclair: Inspired by Robert Sinclair, a pioneering locomotive engineer, this clan reflects Scotland’s railroad expansion.
  Clan Ability: The Sinclair clan is uniquely skilled at expanding across the map. They can pay to skip across a land hex (empty or occupied) or cross any amount of loch hexes. The Sinclairs are not great seafarers. They start with river-crossing unlocked, however they cannot upgrade any further.
• Clan Fraser: With deep roots in textile production, Clan Fraser draws upon its history of crafting with wool and operating textile mills.
  Clan Ability: Transform wool into kilts—a new, processed good unique to this clan. For every 4 cotton (or multiples thereof) you import, you gain 2 wool, capturing the industrial shift as imported cotton began replacing linen and wool in textile production.
• Clan MacGregor: Known for its roots in agriculture and animal husbandry, Clan MacGregor thrived in the Highlands, where grazing lands supported its strong ties to sheep farming.
  Clan Ability: Form herds by placing two or more sheep on adjacent hexes. Sheep in a herd can graze toward empty adjacent grassland hexes gaining you terrain without cost.
• Clan MacPherson: Known for their roots in Badenoch and expertise in animal husbandry, Clan MacPherson excelled in breeding Highland cattle and other livestock.
  Clan Ability: At the end of each Production Phase, any adjacent pair of animals of the same type will breed. Note: These young animals won’t produce milk or wool until future rounds.
