first maybe you hit disband by accient second you might have lost the resourses to cultrual border and not noticed you need coal

Theres a quick answers thread very top of this forum

first i use arrow keys to move units.
second the resource coal was in the middle of the city group place and stell was near.and wouldnt it warn me that i was about to disband my own unit?

 

[Demon_Axe]

not when u hit the disband button... i dont think.... ive never really used it

 

[T-Money]

And it doesn't matter where the resource is, any resoure besides horses and rubber could dissapear at any time. But it always has a little sign that says "We lost our source of coal!" or whatever.

 

[Colonel]

for the army thing you might have lost some of your cities perhaps ( you are limited on how many armies you get by the number of cities)

 

[SesnOfWthr]

If I had to guess about the army, I would say that you probably didn't load any units into it. An army is defenseless until you add units into it. Therefore, if any unit attacks it, it dies automatically. Once you load units into it, it becomes the most powerful unit in the game.

1)Maybe you had 0 money and you were still loosing it. Your units are automaticly disbanded when this happen.

2) Maybe enemie pillaged your coal resorce.......or your iron one, couse you need both to build railroad.

If you have a 'before and after' saves, upload them and we can take a peek and find out what happened.

 

[emperor conan]

ok the army wasnt defended. i wasnt able to buld on it. as for the the railroads i checked everythimg you guys said but all the resource was still available but thanx for the info. and i dont usually save. so i cant upload it.

 

[Turner]

Not even autosaves?

 

[emperor conan]

auto saves get erased when i start a new game

Maybe the army was in jungle or flood plain and caught a disese.

 

[bob rulz]

Not possible. Units in flood plains don't get diseased and only fortified units in jungles get disease.
