Colonisation+Russia

[unmerged(7052)]

I started to play a GC as Russia, but i can't colonise any province. What can i do to start colonisation of Siberia provinces?

You must have settlers to send out,but go to Faq forum,is a lot to read there it will help you.

But i have no settlers and i even can't access the colonisation menu.

Go to the FAQ site and follow the threads. Settlers will pop up for Russia a little later. The colonization menu can be accessed when you have settlers and of course, the appropriate amount of money. The FAQ site is very good, it may take some time to go through it, but it helps with game play immensely.

If you have any other questions, just post, the folks here are very helpful.


Good luck.

I am probably right in guessing that your problem is you have no port? Othodox religion gets 1 settler per year if they have at least one port.

You need to take ingermanland of whoever owns it, then you will get settlers.

Yes Uglyduck was pointing towards that.

Yep - I just wanted to drop a hint

Yeah, for some reason even if you're bordering colonizable areas by land, you still have to have a port to get colonists. Your best choices for Russia are to capture Ingermanland or - if you're playing IGC with independent Norway - you might try Finnmark. (that's the coastal one west of Kola) Or conquer the Teutonic Order, if Sweden already has both of those (you don't wanna mess with Sweden too early on).
