Beyond the Cape

Beyond the Cape is an overhaul mod that changes how exploration and naval gameplay work, making both feel more natural and purposeful. It draws on the real challenges of early sea expeditions, updating how your nation discovers new lands and adding new ship types, mechanics, and strategic choices.

If you want a better Age of Discovery, better naval battles, or more content for exploration-focused nations, Beyond the Cape expands on all of it.

---

• Exploration Maintenance has been removed. Expeditions are now funded upfront with gold, sailors, and supplies.
  
• Expeditions can fail, making exploration dangerous but rewarding when successful.
  
• Characters exploring will have lower chance of exploration failure based on their administrative ability.
  
• Deep Ocean and the new Cape topography require special advances before they can be safely explored.
  
• Explorations can only launch from coastal locations that are connected to the capital, share the same market, or contain a lieutenancy or viceroyalty. They can also be sent from Colonial Nation subject locations with a dock building.
  
• Steal Maps now costs 100 spy network.
