The Nubia DLC

The leader has ruled the ancient Kushitic Kingdom of Meroë, later called Nubia during the time that several splendid construction projects were made. The Queen offers potent production bonuses to her citizens.
Ability

She can give +20 percent production to all districts. If the Nubian Pyramid is built near the city center, the Queen offers +40 percent production.
Unit

This Pyramid can be constructed in floodplains, deserts, and desert hills. The Nubian Pyramid gives faith as well as bonuses. These bonuses are dependent on the nearby city centers or districts in the game.
New scenario
