The Shipyards question

[Rotten Venetic]

Everybody knows that you get 1 colonist per year from "shipyards" upon building the first one. However, if you build another one you still get only one colonist per year. How many shipyards do you have to build to get an increment to that number? Even 1.01 is better than 1

Having more than one shipyard provides no more colonists than having just one.

Yep kinda sucks when you have tonz of money

Why can you build shipyards in colonies but can only build conscription centers in home provinces?

 

[SeedSnatcher]

Because you can't train troops in colonies?

You can train troops in colonies...

IIRC CC's can only be built in provs that give you MP (these are your cores and the ones connected by land to your capital)

Shipyards only need a province with a BTV of 6

Ok. But it really sucks if you're trying to colonize while being inventive. Too bad the narrow/inventiveness is the most important slider for colonists.

I was pretty sure I put in a CC in Asia Minor when I played Sweden a few years ago....Or was it Strassburg? Or Auvergne...I can't remember which nation I did it...but I was pretty sure I did...I had to convert them to Christian of course...But I THINK I built one there....Had to be Auvergne...as France...because that was my WC game...

o Thought he meant colonies like provinces with less than 1000 population.

I though he meant colonies as in overseas provs...

Most (or possibly all) of Asia Minor is considered part of Europe by the game, so European countries are able to get manpower from there even without a land connection.

I did mean this (sorry about the confusion).
