3 noob RTW questions

[aargh57]

Hi all. Just started RTW (previously have played MTW). Reading Frog's guide she says that I should take out the tech tree that came with the game, but I didn't get one with my game. Is there a printable tree out there for this game. Also, how do you replenish the men from your ships that you lose in battle? Lastly, how do you switch to your desktop without quiting the game. I tried the windows key but it didn't work.


Thanks for any help.

Hi aargh57,

Reading Frog's guide she says that I should take out the tech tree that came with the game, but I didn't get one with my game. Is there a printable tree out there for this game.
All you have to do is simply double click on any settlement's scroll and the middle button on the bottom left side shows you your tech-tree. Sadly it's not printable, but it's very useful.

Also, how do you replenish the men from your ships that you lose in battle?
Simple! All you have to do is send them to a port and retrain them like any other R:TW solider using the great re-train tab in the settlement's scroll. You also have to send naval fleets to ports to be able to disband them.

Hope this helps you out, enjoy Rome, cheers!

Question 3: pressing alt-tab (at the same time) works. Alternatively, you can just press ctrl-alt-del, and close the window which opens then. You should be back to your desktop.

I dont know if RTW supports alt tabbing though some games don't, but ctrl+alt+delete usually works with most games if you spend a bit of time with it

Ctrl-Esc also works for minimizing the game.

Hey thanks everybody. Too bad about no printable tech tree. Really liking the game so far.
