yeah now that you mention it, there were no black english settlers back in the days of old, has accuracy gone out the window for political correctness?
what's next? the Aborigines weren't cannibles.

I don't know, it's hard to tell from that small picture, but maybe that's just his hat? Like the hat for the AoE3 desktop icon. I never noticed that the settlers were black when I played it myself.
