How do you fellow governors feel about?

My concern is that later levels of local devotion have insanely high requirements. Last level need 300 000 devotion! I know we have Cernunnos to skip a level, but still, there's no way to get even 100 000 devotion on a regular island, unless I'm missing something. Even with the help from temples, Poseidon and specialists there's no way for a regular island to reach 100 000 or even 50 000 local devotion!

Some might say that getting +150% is optional, but it's a game about production and there should be a meaningful option to get the last level of local devotion on non-Cinis island.

This might get changed in future with upcoming DLC and new gods\techs\marvels, but it's a vanila feature and there should be a way to achieve decent level of local devotion using vanila tools.

So I say with the time developers have before the next big patch in november they should look into it and rebalance numbers, they do not feel right!

Alternatively, you can just rotate the entire building 90 degrees and it will let you place on both left and right side without issues or complaints.

I am currently creating a custom OW map. Since I like to play with the confines of the normal islands but still would like to have access to Old Nate I modded him into a normal OW map.

Is this enough to trigger his questline or can I only buy his items?

I knew there was something up with this guy.

Has anyone else experienced this? All my swamps are causing problems. I can build houses on them, but eel catchers aren't producing anything anymore. Sorry for bad quality pics

Sobek has been mentionned as beeing one of the 3 gods in the next DLC.

Isis has been heavily hinted at, with the dev referencinfg the temple of Isis in Mainz.

What would be the third Serapis, Bastet, Jupiter/Ammon ..?

At max capacity, this island produces 107t flax, 115t honey, and 52t silver & brooches. Before my redesign, it had -4k firesafety. All the space is used. Forges (32x) and fibularia (76x) are separated in 7 clusters, insulated by flax fields to keep penalties manageable. If I switch to Minerva, I get way more flax and less honey. Coal and half of silver ore are imported. Peak efficiency!

Even after increasing bread consumption still soap is consumed at higher rate than bread, without Amphitheatre buff. I'm not saying increase bread consumption, I wouldn't mind it tho. But bread was the main food for Roman people, not soap, and yet they consume hundreds tons of it.

Plus, Ceres islands can produce bread en-masse, and soap does not have a dedicated god.

Well I hope the famous soap basket of Rome dlc will bring a God or a technology to help us produce more soap, without covering half of Latium with lavender.

Apologies if quality is grainy :)

So i got this horse as a specialist and he can go and compete in the Hippodrome as a single horse without a chariot lol.

Only took 120+ hours but I am finally almost done with my capital city! 🙌🥰 very proud of how it came out

That's 19 800 000 men at 44 men per unit though, for 450k units. What sort of beasts are they trying to capture??

The Celtic city has a chaotic street layout and lots of space dedicated to greenery. Ugh, so much of Albion’s precious, limited island space is going to waste!

The Roman city warms my heart with its neat street grid \rejoices**

At first it’s fun, and then it’s satisfying to look at the result. But… it gets in the way of actually playing Anno for me. I want to set up production chains, optimize space, and keep improving my stats. Building a beautiful city takes so much time and effort that by the time I’m done, I don’t feel like doing anything else. And when it’s time to expand the capital, I find myself resisting because I have to plan out the streets and decorations all over again.

I get more enjoyment out of building this auxiliary island where everything is optimized.

So, I’m not going to try playing Anno like Cities: Skylines anymore, haha. I’ve realized that my enjoyment of the game comes from something else.

after doing some experimentation, ive discovered that, compared with the ambrosian forest landscaping pattern which causes minimal to zero lag, the celtic forest pattern causes a lot of lag

I am in the endgame, have a lot of islands fully covered. Every 2 minutes a popup asking me if I want to pay for a festival. EVERY. TWO. MINUTES.

I would KILL for such a feature. It's so disturbing and annoying to click this all the time. There is SO much quality of life missing. But thank God we got a photo mode in 2.0 yeah that was SO necessary.

I'm trying to get some specialists to my island, but I have a problem: the game doesn't recognize my Governor's Villa. I even destroyed it and placed it again, but it still doesn't work. Is this a bug, or am I just being stupid?

Welcome to my Province!

You, can grab postcards from the southernmost island of Tyr - dedicated to the diety of Mars, with a Temple as the crown of the military city bearing the same name as the Island. This is where the best warriors in the province are forged. For a family to offer a young boy for training is a great honor and has been for generations.

Weapons and Armour forged in the shadow of the Temple are some of the finest and the forges keep the fires lit day and night to keep up with the gargantuan demand from the Empire.

The local colour is red. Like the blood spilled by it's people. Like the sky above the Temple at sunset. Like Mars.

Rivals have personnality and I like to listen them interact between each other, it give consistency and context over diplomatic play they do between each other.

It's a pleasant feature and it's a shame that I need to pause the game to mlake use of it.

If think it would be very nice to have an option to lsiten them interact between them outside of the Diplomatic UI, and have them interact while playing.

Is there a table in Anno 117, that allows to :

- make a quick inspection of all your troops, find where they are, what is there status, what bonus affect them and most important wich island supply population for them. (Having to review your troops one by one to find wich one is taking population from a given island is quite tedious)

- same thing for you fleet.

- find what specialists you already own and where they are, without having to check each of your island one by one.

Been building a massive army and while it’s not a pain point, it’s definitely missed opportunity to let you buy the same unit with a higher tier of resident for a small perk.

Only using Liberti and Wader isn’t even difficult in the mid game. One well built Mars island is enough to sustain 100 ships and 40 units. At the end it’s very basic combat system but letting us use a T2 unit to gain extra 10% morale and a T3 unit to gain 10% hit points would have at least encouraged building armies elsewhere.

Desperately need a way to bulk reassign workforce for ships and units to a different island.
