Hm.. I'm producing 21k cheese and 23k apples, but I always seem to have 0 cheese in my granary, and so never get that 2x food bonus. Am I doing something wrong?

I think you are eating more cheese then you are producing. Problem with the food is that you eat all food at an equal rate, so your probably eating over 21k food, but not yet 23k. Boost your cheese production and shift your buildings around (distance = amount produced) until you get the amounts as even as possible.

For engineering, is it worth it to upgrade stockpile space directly or should I just keep iupgrading engineering, which should increase all of my resource caps
?

I'm pretty sure that direct stockpile upgrades will give a higher increase than general upgrades. But if you've got a lot of food, banquet goods, or ale, you might as well get the general upgrade for those.

I'm in Ireland, on the opposite side of Dublin but not quite THAT far compared to the others.

I play adventure mode because it's hard and when I play, I am too.
I believe we're talking about full scale colonisation here.  You don't just leave all your shit in the van when you move house.

I'm in Lothian, west of Whitekirk, just started out, still doing the tutorial, seems fairly straightforward, maybe a bit cluttered but it looks nice :)

Jopax some stuff from a fellow noob.

Research points are the most important thing in the game think hard before you use them.

Safe things to put points in are, arts, stone/wood production,  apple farming, fortification untill stone wall, 1 point in weapon making then fletching, long bow, conscription. somewhat in order of importance. In your area there seems to be some combat between players from ireland so you might need more defence than I do. If you are under attack make sure you have as few resources as you can ready for them to steal.

Scouting is fun, first to scout a resource gets honour so it can be a race to get there first.

You will be attacked by AI once (maybe twice?) a day untill the enemy camp is gone, not sure how to get rid of it. Anyway the attacks are a bit worse after you level up each time so you DO need to hire extra people as guards and put up some extra walls etc when you can. If you lose you only lose honoue though. Winning and getting bonus honour feels good though ;p


Im in SE england>surrey>north dorking. Pretty tough here active established players all around me.

I figured out most of the stuff, have some peasants to defend me for the time being, working on resources and getting happiness now, one thing that i don't get is weapon stuff, i did the toolmaking research and it showed fletching, now it shows armor making (well poleturning) and no fletching is available for research, or does the number besides it show my honor level required for it to be unlocked?
