[garrison questions]

Thank you...........

[garrison questions]

I think I asked the wrong question I will try again. Is there any advantage or disadvantage to populating or not the buildings both civil and military

[garrison questions]

I wonder how the garrison feature works other than to train people. eg A house can garrison 6 people (women only)

Is there an advantage in filling each house with women or would the result from having 1 woman per 25 houses be exactly the same?

Similar for military buildings if 1 person gets trained (advanced) does that apply to the entire population or does the building need to be fully garrisoned?

No. Neither can you secure a bit of territory nor do you need it for a dock; and the only kind of 'interim storage facility' would be a dock...

 

Sounds like it should work. If you attached a replay or at least a screenshot showing the dock, ppl here would probably able to better help you.

For some reason it worked this time. I shifted the site back a couple of mm and it all came together for me

Hi Everyone,

Thanks so far. I think I understand the problem but not sure of what to do.

I arrive by ship then disembark the workers place a dock site in the only position available (on the waterfront) work commences then stops due, I think to the workers inability to perform in water.

Maybe I need to do some thing to secure a small piece of territory where I can build the dock or find an interim storage facility so that work can continue...

Why can't you build a dock?

In nomad mode, it's advised to set starting recourses to 500 so that you can build a CC right away. If not, you can build a dock and collect starting resources using the dock as a dropsite. The only other way I could think of is perhaps looking for treasure, or if you play with the Mauryas, you can use the worker elephant as a mobile dropsite. 

When I try to build the dock work starts but never completes gets to 1of 2000 and stops assembling is it a bug? I do not have any elephants in the game i started.

I am a new at this here is a pic of the third move I made 1 ship to shore 2 un garrison woman 3 move woman.

If I set every one to work they all stop with an arm full as they have no where to drop the stuff. I tried to build a dock but failed miserably the only things I can build are lookouts then run out of resources...Some help will be appreciated.

Civic centers can be built in neutral territory, and it grants a large rooted territory spread. It should be the first building of any settlement

I don't have an option to build a civic centre I arrived by ship

How to start to develop from a ship as there are no drop points and no way to build in neutral territory

I just realized  I post to the wrong forum should be the help
