My current campaign is as the swebox. Apparently I MUS capture the Goth island in the baltic in order to win victory conditions, but find myself unable to build a port?

Is this built in? Where are the most easily capturable ports?

You can build a port in Sweden...
Or you can travel to southern Gaul. There was talk of a naval port being added for the Netherlands in v1.1, but I don't remember the ultimate decission on that.

Ah the population of my territory in spain is still tiny. Tax rate set to low. Thanks!

Southern Gaul? I thought Darioritum would be the city you are thinking of.

I built my ships in Skandza, so it´s absolutely possible. Though it is a bit annoying that you can´t take Gotland for many years, especially with all those huge pirate fleets in the area. Did the Gotlanders (or whatever) really keep such a good watch on their island that nowone could approach without a huge fleet?

auto_win defender/attacker is your friend when it comes to overpowered pirates ruining your expensive fleets.

For unknown reasons the eleutheroi fleets converge on that area. I agree with Olaf, auto_win them away.

I doubt it. The problem is that you can only set pirate-spawning across the board, and because there is not naval activity in the Baltic pirates accumulate there.

I think MAA meant 'you can travel south, to Gaul'... incidentally Darioritum is the only province with the 'gallicport' hidden resource
