The Iroquois are one of the six nations introduced in the Thrones and Patriots expansion. They have the Power of Nation.

Power of Nation

• Get one free Scout class unit with each Barracks built; Scouts receive free upgrades and can move through forests.
• First Senate built is free and instantly built.
• Citizens working at a Woodcutter's Camp gather +2 Food in addition to the Timber gathered.
  • The Woodcutter's Camp's +2 Food ability is affected by the Granary and Agronomics technologies.
• Military units (and Scouts) in friendly (own or allied) territory are hidden when not attacking.
  • The automatic hidden ability only activate if the unit had not attacked within the last 33 seconds (500 frames); this is the same delay for regular units to be hidden under a General's Ambush ability.
• All units heal when not moving or attacking in friendly (own or allied) territory.
  • The automatic healing only activate if the unit had not attacked within the last 33 seconds (500 frames); this is the same delay for regular units to be hidden under a General's Ambush ability, and heals at the same rate as if the unit were garrisoned, which is improved by the same amount by Healthcare technologies. It stacks with the natural healing of some units like the Citizen when in friendly territory.
• Barracks units have +5% hit points.
• (Undocumented/hidden) Most Barracks units move +25% faster, similar to the Bantu's movement bonus.
  • The movement bonus does not apply to Modern Age nor Information Age units, nor to Scouts and Machine Guns. It does however apply to the Flamethrower and other Barracks units from the Industrial Age and earlier.
  • The movement bonus is based on the age the unit becomes available, not the actual age of the player's nation.
  • The movement bonus works in neutral and enemy territory, not only in friendly territory.
  • The movement bonus is independent of the Bantu's movement bonus value.
  • Cursory reverse engineering of the game exe heavily implies that this speed bonus is the same speed bonus ordinarily given to "modern infantry" (confusingly, a separate classification from Modern Infantry). Because the underlying bonus is the same, Iroquois "modern infantry" simply have the same bonus that previous Iroquois infantry units did.

Unique units

The Iroquois unique Scouts (Takohs, Akweks and Okwari) have +10 hit points, increased movement speed, increased line of sight, +3 line of sight bonus per Science research, and increased Craft compared with the standard Scouts they replace. Additionally, Takohs will automatically hide when not moving.

Damage-wise, the Industrial Age Ranged Cavalry have a 50% damage bonus against Scouts, but not against the Iroquois unique Scouts. Biplanes have a 10% damage penalty against Scouts, but not against the Iroquois unique Scouts. Finally, the Okwari, as an Enlightenment Age unit replacing the Industrial Age Commando, receives more damage from some units due to the Age-related damage bonus.
