Henry the Navigator Event. Expand your territory with 40% cheaper Forest expansions and Dock, Command Post, Raider, Supply Cart, and Fighter upgrades during this limited time event! Prince Henry the Navigator of Portugal is often credited with beginning the Age of Exploration and the Atlantic slave trade because he sponsored many exploratory sea voyages. Before these expeditions, Europeans knew little about areas past Cape Bojador on the west coast of Africa. Thirty-eight years after Henry's death, the explorer Vasco da Gama completed the first European voyage to India, giving Portugal a head start on claiming lucrative Indian Ocean trade routes. (Event lasts from 14:00 UTC 10/19 until 14:00 UTC 10/23.)
