TWFanatic's Excelant Ostia Question

[Goth47]

Thanks, Cmacq.

I seem to recall that triremes and quinqueremes were built at Ostia during the First Punic War (modeled after a wrecked Carthaginian model according to Polybius). It was there they so famously trained their crew while building the ships by practicing rowing on land and such.

Dont forget though that EB starts before the 1st punic war and the romans only ever became serious about building a fleet after the war had started.
Hence there shouldnt really be a fleet building facility at Ostia at the game start, there should only be a trading facility.

Thanks
