What does that mean ;-D?
Does loyalty in colonies change over time, if I have military controle?
And thanks again ;-D
Contentment and population...in som,e provinces I have 95% and tsill the pop is indifferent - in others I have 65% and they are content - how does this logic work?
How does supply work in colonies - I build anchorages, supply depots - and have a trade fleet in the trade box - but still it seems there is fairly little supply arriving in my colonies...?
Do forts receive auto-garrisons in colonies - do not see any in the forts that I build...
just that the route for a player should be via the war with Austria. You can actually skip this and still unify, but what self-respecting Prussian militarist is going to miss out on a war
?
Contentment and status are a bit random, you are more likely to get the enthusiastic event in high contentment provinces but its still a bit random
supply in colonies is hard. The early colonial structures generate a little but it is not pushed (ie moved to another province) or saved (so its used in a turn or lost for ever). Typically they can supply a brigade. You need ports and depots to draw in decent amounts and then supply wagons to move it around (till you build a chain of depots). Once you have a level 3 port and a level 2 depot you'll find that supply arrives at the coast with some ease, getting it to the campaigning area is still a challenge.
You can use the standard AGE game trick of leaving a fleet offshore and send supply wagons back and forth, a fleet usually has far more supply than it needs so you can refill wagons a number of times. This at least helps in coastal regions, but less so in the centre of Africa (but you can pull the same trick with riverine fleets).
Not actually played PoN for a while but they should spawn, remember they only appear if a detected enemy unit is in the province
