Just as an FYI, the Ubisoft subscription service includes Anno 1800, and all the DLC for it, not just the base game (this isn't the case for stuff like the xbox sub.) And they had an offer for 50% off the first 3 months when I subbed, so 6 dollars or whatever for a month of Anno + All DLC if you're on the fence about trying the game and not wanting to drop a hundred bucks or more for all the content.

New world and Trelawny open up at Artisans and Arctic at engineers. I'm sure someone will yell at me if I'm incorrect.

My biggest problems were fixed when I went and actually looked at how much population a supply chain can support, and realized I was being way too conservative on population. A single fishery, for instance, can support 800 people. You can check the statistics window and have a good idea how much you're overproducing, and if you are, build a ton more houses to get closer to your cap.

Now my current save is up to 300k pop on crown falls and over 1M income :)

Something set in the future rather than the past, I hope.

My big wish item is the bulk of the game being set somewhere other than a generic green temperate zone.

Anno & Fallout crossover

So the last time I played was before the most recent Year 4 DLC or whatever. Should I even bother with building New World islands without the Hacienda?

Is there some sort of special unlock to be able to build the Zephyr or the rest of the high end arctic gas airships? I can see everything of the Helum ones, including ones I haven't met the unlock conditions for, but for Arctic Gas I can't see anything beyond the Hermes/Boreas on the construction page in the hangar.

I figured it out: they literally don't show up until you meet the Obrero reqs for the Helium airships!

eventually you can just park a big fleet right inside their harbors and every time they rebuild instantly blow it up

I don’t have a good hacienda farm + trade union + tractor + fertilizer layout yet. Might be a bit much

Said it before but the best rum production is schnaps distilleries around a union with the two specialists that produce bonus rum and some other productivity bonus. Sell excess schnaps.

Yeah, a TU + Tractor + Fertilizer setup can produce something stupid like 600 potatoes/min off of a single trade union. Then your island just constantly blows up with all the distilleries it takes

Set up a max production schnapps chain on a production island just to see what it would get to:


While ~20 rum distilleries in the new world only produces about 100t/min of rum.

absurdity.

I've been just making sure to try to strategically place the airship platform such that the docks are the closest space for as many directions as possible.

It stinks!

the irrigation mechanic is just really annoying to have to constantly deal with, to me, and i don't know how much it adds to the experience other than friction.

It should be a fraction, so your should say something like 500/700, so just import 200 more
