How purchase a unit?

(This belongs in the quick question thread)

HOW DO YOU PURCHASE UNITS?

I seem to have plenty of gold, say 900. Settler costs 400 gold. I click the "Purchase" tab and nothing happens.

(Meanwhile, I can spend gold for a tile and for a gift to a city-state.)

 

Make sure you dont already have a unit in the city.

 

You can purchase a unit even if there is a garrisoned unit.

But you don't get it immediately, it becomes available the next turn.

 

Click on purchase and THEN select the unit you want to buy

I spent like 2 hours trying to figure out that you select the purchase button before purchasing and not after

Cheers
