wikipedia.org: Expeditions: Conquistador is a squad-based tactical role-playing game developed by Logic Artists and released by BitComposer for Windows, Linux and Macintosh on May 30, 2013. The player takes the role of a Spanish conquistador leading an expedition to Hispaniola and Mexico in 1518 to 1520. The game features resource management, a branching storyline, and interactive fiction elements. Expeditions: Conquistador was partially funded by Kickstarter. Expeditions: Conquistador is set during the Age of Exploration. The player's goal is to mount an expedition from Spain to Hispaniola and Mexico, amassing gold and influence while building and sustaining a strong expedition force. The game concludes with the player's return to Spain. During the course of the expedition, the player has the opportunity to influence the fate of the explored lands. The game is set in an alternate history that allows the player's choices to diverge from historical events. The player character does not participate in combat and has five non-combat player stats: tactics, diplomacy, healing, hunting and leadership. Player stats are assigned during character creation and do not level up, although in-game events and squad bonuses may modify them. Player stats open up options in dialogue events; they also influence various aspects of resource management, and allow the player to alter the starting conditions of battles. The game includes text and dialogue driven quests with branching storylines. The player begins the game by assembling an expedition of ten followers from pre-made characters. There are five Spanish character classes, each corresponding to common role-playing game combat archetypes: soldier (tank), scout (damage dealer), hunter (ranged combat), doctor (healer) and scholar (support unit). In addition to the five Spanish classes, the game has six native classes which the player can recruit during the game. Character classes have non-combat skills and each character has unique personality traits. The expedition party has a pool of experience points used to level up followers to improve their skills and unlock new abilities. Combat is turn-based and takes place on a hex grid. The player generally chooses up to six members of the expedition party to deploy on the battlefield.
