Samurai

[roalan]

I am playing the Japaneese and I have Iron in Japan . I was building Samurai and all of a sudden I can not build them any more and I still show Iron. What happened? Why can I not build Samuari?

Assuming you still have iron, and were previously able to build them, perhaps you now can build cavalry instead, which is the upgrade from samurai.

Nope can not build cav. BUT I was wondering I entered in a trade agreement and traded zero Iron for Zero Horses. I was wondering if I traded my remaining Iron for the horses. I can build horseman now but not Samuari. I think I should not have traded if it says 0?

Remember you need saltpetre to build cavalry units. However I think the problem here is that you did indeed trade your iron for horses. The 0 means you have no spare to trade, in which case it's usually a bad idea to trade them, unless you really didn't need iron (say you had saltpetre and were building cavalry). I'd cancel the agreement as soon as you can.

Yup I figured as much. Thanks for the help I will xl the agreement.
