介绍：
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It has been a long time since my last update. Modding the King's Return has been slow process for me lately, mainly due to being busy with other things in life. So I decided to share some of the new features that shall be added to the mod: "in-game politician units". It is a feature for all European Civs. It is still in conceptual phase so if anyone has good ideas about this feature please feel free to share & elaborate! The idea is to introduce all European politicians in the game as units. So whenever a European Civ player chooses a specific politician, the politician will be shipped in the game as a special unit with unique abilities & bonuses. This shall add another aspect & fun to the game. Almost all the new "Politician" units have been created with fresh new visuals that reflects their portraits (see below).

Overview
You get this "special" unit once you choose a specific politician to age-up. Each politician will have a small unique bonus(es) that will reflect the nature of the politician (or his shipment). For example the Exiled Prince has large LOS, can receive shipment, build TC and has the ability to go back to home city shipment point. Additionally, to balance out politicians and to add more variety & fun, less used politicians will have better bonuses (like the naturalist).

自从我上次更新以来已经很长时间了。最近改变国王的回归对我来说是一个缓慢的过程，主要是因为忙于生活中的其他事情。所以我决定分享一些新功能，这些功能将被添加到mod：“游戏中的政治单位”。这是所有欧洲文明的特色。它还处于概念阶段，所以如果有人对这个功能有好的想法，请随时分享和详细说明！这个想法是将游戏中的所有欧洲政客都作为单位介绍。因此，每当一名欧洲文明玩家选择一名特定的政治家时，该政治家将作为一个具有独特能力和奖金的特殊单位在游戏中运送。这将为游戏增添另一个方面和乐趣。几乎所有的新“政治家”

概观
一旦你选择一位特定的政治家来提升年龄，你就会得到这个“特殊”的单位。每个政治家都会有一个小的独特奖金，它将反映政治家（或他的货物）的性质。例如，流亡王子拥有大量的LOS，可以接收货物，建立TC并且有能力回到本地城市的装运点。此外，为了平衡政治家并增加更多种类和乐趣，较少使用的政治家将获得更好的奖金（如自然主义者）。
