Yes. Most buildings have a population requirement. You can see it when you click on the building.

[Rolepgeek]

Meh. Unless buildings require you to have a specific population I'm blaming that. It literally wouldn't let me build a bunch of stuff.

*facepalm*

Look, I'm playing to have fun not rush units and buildings. And I have been expanding, as I said, and my population never changed.

Look, I'm playing to have fun not rush units and buildings. And I have been expanding, as I said, and my population never changed.

It's not about 'rushing', it's about knowing how to play the game in the first place...and surviving long enough to get to the good bits, which it seems like you will be unlikely to do. We're not trying to be mean. But when you don't know how to play and don't seem to bother to learn when the tutorials and requirements for various things are right there to look at, every turn if you have to, it's hard not to get exasperated.

Anyway. My turn. Don't know what you think you're doing, NQT/Squeegy, but I can assure you all you're accomplishing is making sure I have an army and making sure you won't. Grrr. I'm fierce. Grrr.

Well, I've mentioned it before that I learn by doing, not reading a giant big fat stack of text that says "You do this, then do that, but you can't unless you have this, except when you do that, and all this means you get to do this and this but you can't do either if you haven't done this" or whatever.

Finally get to play a turn. Sorry for the absence. A lot has happened it appears!

[Rolepgeek]

Well, I've mentioned it before that I learn by doing, not reading a giant big fat stack of text that says "You do this, then do that, but you can't unless you have this, except when you do that, and all this means you get to do this and this but you can't do either if you haven't done this" or whatever.

It came with pictures, man. It's not even a huge stack of text; the description of each building tells you what's needed to build it, including population. Don't get defensive; just accept that you didn't look for it.

[SilverDragon]

I'm not getting defensive, I blatantly said I knew jack shit.

[Squeegy]

Rolepgeek just assumes everyone who disagrees with him is defensive.

SilverDragon, you need to expand into tiles that give you the most Food to grow your population the fastest. It's a really basic mechanic we've been over several times. I warned you you needed to claim river tiles, I even suggested a course of action you could follow and tried to help you out when I auto'd you. Your population isn't changing because you're not claiming high-value Food tiles. That's literally all there is to it.
