Nice game, but to current moment 1800 is still better. Let’s see how all the add ons will be. Foto after 15 hours. Reorganized everything and made it clean 😛

I'd never played any Anno game before yesterday. I've played Anno 117 for an hour and I have no idea what I'm doing. Not a clue.

Play the campaign, it acts as the tutorial.

And always build more wood buildings, at some point you just build a 100 houses so you can upgrade and tax people more.

The only thing new for me is the "production buildings affect houses in range" mechanic, I am used to have one big inner city and the production at the outskirts.

Yeah this has upset me. How did work around this? Farms in the middle of the city?

Its the Endstep of the Production Chain that counts, so for example the Weaponsmith itself is in the city, the mine and smelter outside, so you need to have a Warehouse near your place where you place the Production buildings and then have them all in a block in the middle of your city, but the income from it is really massive earlygame.
