El Dorado icon

El Dorado is a campaign-only building found in the New World campaign.

On the Amazon scenario where El Dorado is found, associated scripting for the campaign provides the player with 1000 Metal Metal when the structure is destroyed. It cannot be built by the player under normal circumstances. The only way to make it more useful is scripting and modding.

El Dorado originally was the term used by the Spanish in the 16th century to describe a mythical king, who covered himself with gold, as an initiation rite. The legends surrounding El Dorado changed over time: first it was a man, then a city, a kingdom, and then finally an empire. During the 16th and 17th centuries Europeans believed that El Dorado existed somewhere in the New World.
