    Have you reached the next population level?

    If there are simply no buildings showing up in the build tab, it's because you've built everything for your settlement level, and have to wait till your population grows large enough to move to the next set of buildings (i.e. large enough to build a Governor's Palace, or a Proconsul's Palace).

    If they're showing up but washed-out and unclickable, then you've spent all your cash already and will have to wait till you get more later.

    You also need one of your family members in the city to micromanage it.

    Its an interesting change to the build queue, it takes the cost out of your treasury as you queue it rather than when it starts building.
    maybe those guys should be doing something more useful...

    So you can't make stuff when a governer is in place (I heard in some other threads) and you must pay in advance. Meaning if you don't have a family member in a city, you need to cough up all the coins in advance?
    It doesn't sound very realistic either (unless you get a discount for units bought in advance?). And a handfull to manage every family-governered city every turn so that you never have to spend in advance...

    You have to cough up the cash in advance anyway - click "que Barracks" and it takes the money from your coffers right then. I like it this way because you no longer get the "Cannot construct/Lack of Funds" message so that when something comes up on the build que it's going ot be built right away, not wait for money.
