Some Maths and Ships to be loaded

[Sir De Puce]

Hello there,

i've got 2 questions:

1. I was wandering if the game really knows what the word "math" does mean because i had 18k Florins ( some nice King capturing ) and it said the next tick i would gain 8k and lose 6k for Troops etc, and would have somehow about 2k left - next tick i had 2k BUT :

18k
+ 8k
- 6k
---------
= 20k !!!! So what is this game doing ???

2. How can i load my troops on a ship ? I ready built a veeery big one but still cant do that! If i drag the troops over it, it won't work! What to do ?

Did you have a lot of buildings and units waiting to be produced?
When you got the 18k they all began producing at the same time.
Go check your provinces and see if there aren't a lot of buildings that are one year into production.

You don't drag your troops onto a ship. You form a chain of ships to the target province. Then you drag your troops there. But beware, any other ship, even an ally will interupt this.

BTW, Danish Crusades are true to history.

You may not care about war, but war cares about you!

I thought that Allied and neutral ships only stopped you landing in the provinces owned by them rather than breaking ANY chain of ships. Thats my experience anyway.

Yes it is, but the game first checks your target, declares war (I think), and THEN checks whether you actually can go there.

So you can not invade a province of an ally when his ship is there, because he stops being your ally before the shipping is done ...

thanks a lot! You're right, i did produce a lot but i thought the game would but those costs into the list ...

well and about the landing troops i gotta try

You can use your navy for transport with non-hostile ships in the water, but you really need to keep an eye out for hostile ships sailing up to every province you occupy - it's easy to miss a naval offensive until you lose 5 ships in 1 turn.

Unfortunately, the game does NOT take production into account for your next-year's Florins totals.

It only accounts for your income and upkeep.

Would be a cool feature, though.
