Well, we'll have ships. What would britain be without the Royal Navy?

It will be a while before we have a decent navy and the capacity to support it though. In addition to building them, we'll need lots and lots of fuel and ammo. Hence the province will be on its own for a while, and any more developed country could swoop in with a few units of marines and take it over.

I already sent him a message about this a few days ago. I went into some detail but the short of it was I told him to troll span if he can but expect to lose.

We need to do diplomacy with the Spanish.

As for the nevy, we're growing fast, and still got what, 3 weeks? I should be able to support at least a couple destroyer by then.

the need for men drives me to level up my city, my need for steel grows biger all the time.
im haveing to take down some old buildings to get back the space,still the high level building are a lot better in pay out per man and will be easyer to both defend and attack.

Yea, a bunch of low level buildings is better in payout per resource invested, so is good early on to quickly grow cement/lumber capabilities - but once you're nearing a worker limit you have to switch to fewer, high level buildings to better use the manpower.

If they're actual Spaniards and not Poles or whatever I could help with the language barrier. That said, actual Spaniards might feel a bit irredentist about Gibraltar and such, so I can't promise anything.

On a side note, what's the building cap?

75 per province. It only really limits you early on with low level buildings, once you have a bunch of high level buildings you'll run out of people instead.

then the fun starts leveling up your city, it takes massive amounts of stuff,75K of cement, 50K of wood for level 6
and that will only pay out 10 an hour.

just hit 40K/Hour of cement, i still need to get more steel per hour and to do that i need lot of coal and iron.

Whats with the factory production?

Trying to build a train, the unit details says 3.1k factory production points. The build screen shows 14k factory production points when I tell it to build one. The ETA shows over 40 days, which given my hourly production rate of 242 (just one factory still being upgraded) would be over 232k factory production points.  ???

I guess I need more factories, but wth?

^I think it's got to do with factory specialization. The first batch of units you build will incur time penalties, this lessens for every new unit of the same type built, to the point you start getting bonuses instead.

But don't take my word for it, check the wiki.

I can see that for the diff between the displayed 3.1k and the 14k, but why is it showing 40 days :o
