>Thank you Tinto Team for another inspiring TF! I’ve been waiting a long time for this one, since Portugal will be the first nation I’ll play.
>As someone from Brazil, I’m especially curious about how Colonial Brazil will be represented, so I’d like to ask a few questions:

>Will there be special buildings or mechanics related to the slave-based sugar plantation economy in the Northeast (Engenhos de Açúcar)?

>Are there events or mechanics regarding the Bandeirantes expeditions into the interior of the country?

>Will there be content for the Gold Rush of Minas Gerais in the 17th–18th centuries? And perhaps even the Inconfidência Mineira?

>Will Brazil get events tied to the Jesuit missions and their conflicts with colonists and the Crown over indigenous rights (such as the expulsion of the Jesuits in the 18th century)?

1. The Triangular Trade system is portrayed by the game mechanics.
2.
3 & 4. Not as of now, but I'll take notes for the future.

>1. Is it possible to purchase Goa from the Indian countries? Also, is it necessary to colonize the Cape of Good Hope before making contact with India?

>2. How does Portugal gain benefits while holding territories or buildings along the Indian coast? I believe it's impossible to include Goa in the Lisbon Market, but is there a way to transport goods from the Indian market to Portugal at low cost?

1. It is possible through the base game mechanics, yes.
2. It is recommended to establish outposts around the Cape of Good Hope.
3. There are Trade Offices as foreign buildings, which allow for getting Market Presence in such distant markets. Als, after the Age of Reformation, a new sujbect type will appear, the Trade Company, that would greatly increase this capacity in distant lands. When that Market presence has been established, you can trade the goods to your metropolitan market (and neighboring ones) for a good profit:
