You need money.

I just noticed the same bug playing as dutch on western hemisphere (patchmod) scenario. My first AoD2 1.08 game was a custom game as chinese and i was able to sail ships normally. So, im guessing this bug is only present if you play a preselected scenario.

Rhye, can you clarify if these colors are relevant for specific city sites or cultular influence in general? To put it in other words, should we be founding cities on individual tiles that have higher stability colors or just in somewhere in that area?

As far as i know, these maps show suitable/not suitable sites for city placement, not for cultural boundaries.

Any chance of getting those stability maps?

Possible bug: In the latest version, if you play the 3000 bc start, the Turks don't pick a state religion I've had that happen in a couple of games, does anyone else have this problem? Is there any way to manually set a state religion for a computer civ?

In my game with Germany I get that with Asoka. He asks for something every turn. First few turns he wanted Civil Service, then Guilds, now he keeps asking me to cancel my deals with the Romans. Despite refusing him, I don't get any negative diplomatic points.

Thanks kbk for clearing it up. I got confused because I thought the "build city" icon shows even with fog of war, so I just assumed you can't make cities there. It is actually as you say, no cities on tundra+river, but yes on tundra+coast. Sorry to Rhye for the messup.

If the tile is in fog of war on buildable terrain you will still see the "build city" icon, it just won't be flashing in blue like it would be without the fog of war. Notice in the screenshot I posted there is no build city icon at all. EDIT: I checked in game and I was wrong about that. You...

Pacifist: You have the latest version of bts/rfc and you can build on those spots? I can't build cities in 3 out of the six plots you marked.

Notice how there is no "build city" icon, same goes for the settler on the left side of the screen (can build on the 3 grasslands below though).

There is a lot of plots to list, it is not just near the Ural gems but I also can't build cities in most of Siberia and entire Kamchatka coast.

You can build on tundra, just not in the areas I mentioned, which is a little strange considering there are some cities with over 100k inhabitants there.

I'm playing a game with Russia and for some reason I'm unable to build cities on tundra squares (with access to fresh water/coast) in the northern areas east of the Ural. Is this a bug?

I'm not sure if this will work, but i'm about to try it now...open the map file (not the gamespeedinfo.xml) with notepad and look on top you will see MaxTurns=500....i ll change that to 2000 or something, i let you know later if it did the trick.
