I've just found a new and exiting way to pick the location where your population races two man teams of production cars around various terrain types...

...That must be it... Yeah?...No?...

Just..er..check the manual...*flick*..*flick*..ummm..

Search the Org...Type "settlement rally point" *enter*... ummm...no..
Type "subaru"...no..."McRae"...no...

OK... I've just found a way that you can draw nice blue lines on the campaign map...

Any ideas, folks?
I hope so... It'll take my mind away from my merchants constantly falling from other merchants phishing scams.

Many thanks

When you create a rally point, troops recruited at that city (or ships at that port) will start outside the city and move to the rally point on their first move(s). I don't generally use them, but they are handy if you are using a city to supply a constant stream of reinforcements for a front-line war. That way you don't forget to go back to that city and order the next batch of reinforcements to move to the battle area.

How do you remove rally points?

Set a new one on the settlement or port where it originated, if I remember correctly.

Quillan, it makes perfect sense that "When you create a rally point, troops recruited at that city ...will start outside the city and move to the rally point on their first move..

...But in my capital, London, I've been building a steady supply of spearmen to counteract my faction leaders unpopularity, perhaps due to being a judge on a reality TV show, and they all stay in London... (poor transport links?...)

None of these troops move off to the rally point...
Perhaps they only move when theres a certain level of civil rest in a location???

i.e, they only move when the population is happy???...

I hope your right, Quillan... It would reduce my turn time by about 50% as I'm trying to mass Armoured Swordsmen and Arqubusiers against Spain and Portugal...

Shhhh... keep that last bit about Spain quiet.. I'll give you 5000 Florins....Yeah?... (my Dips are rotten, too)

Many thanks
