Hi everyone, Today we'd like to tell you about controlling your faction in Blood & Gold. Many of you fairly noted that governor management and diplomacy in "Caribbean!" was lacking. So here's what we did: 1) Now players can assign any of his followers as a governor. You can also entice governors from other factions. Governors can be assigned to attack a certain town, patrol selected area or follow your army around the map. 2) After creating your own faction, you can hire necessary managing specialists: [b]Treasurer[/b], [b]Drillmaster[/b], [b]Sutler[/b] and [b]Secretary[/b].

For example, you might have a small troop of runaway slaves armed with pickaxes. By spending some of your gold, you can train them and turn into, say, a troop of musketeers. 4) [b]Sutler[/b] helps you to supply your army with provisions (in case you happen to be far from your supply base) or provide your troops with regular food delivery. 5) [b]Secretary[/b] give you access to diplomacy: with his help you can declare war, try to make peace (which will now cost you MUCH more, so better act civil!), assign and dismiss your governors governors.
