Greetings All,

I'm brand-new to the CIViverse but DID search the Manual before posting this question-- REALLY!

How do I send a 'Settler' to another Continent? They won't board any of the Boats I've built so I'm at a loss as to how to accomplish this!

I have the distinct feeling that I'm missing just one little piece of this Puzzle that would make the lightbulb over my head go on.

I'd sure appreciate someone taking a moment to set me straight on this issue -OR- pointing me to a place where this question has already been answered.

Thanks!

Moj'
 
What boats are you trying? I believe caravels can only board explorers and missionaries so don't try those. Galleons should work fine.
 
Not all boats can carry units. Look for which have a stat called "Cargo space". That number indicates the space for units. However, some boats can only carry certain types of units as well. Note also that only certain vessels can enter oceans, making that an important consideration if the other continent cannot be reached by coastline navy.
 
Yeah, you'll need a galleon, which requires the astronomy tech. Unless, of course, you happen to be near an open continent that can be reached by a galley.
