Build 11 Harbours quest; What do I get?

[larsenex]

So I got the quest to build 11 Harbors in my cities before I get to the industrial age. Ok fine I am doing that now. What do I get if I succeed? +1 food in my capital? hehe.

If you know what the reward is can you post it?

Thanks!

You'll see

All I remember is that there are choices for the reward. Three, I think - one was some promotion benefit, another was extra gold from Harbours, the third was something else...

[larsenex]

Thanks Solver! Its kinda funny last night I was racing to try and get the appostolic palace and realized when I created the game I 'un-checked' diplomatic victory. Thus the palace is no where to be seen...LOL I was wondering if it was a part of the next war mod not to have it but realized I must have un checked diplomo win.

Thanks again! Since I am on the road to war Ill either take the gold or the promos!

One is +5 gold/turn from each harbor. Pretty nice.

Another is promote all ships to Navigation I, IIRC.

Can't remember the third...

[Solver]

Wasn't that just +1 gold per Harbour?

[ben04]

certainly +1, +5 would be way overpowered.

[Kuciwalker]

Hm, according to the XML the promotion is Combat I, not Navigation I. That might be more or less useful. And it is only +1 gold

edit again: the third option is Navigation I. So you can choose which promotion.

+TWO gold per harbor (I recently accomplished it) on huge marathon. Actually, is it not +2 COMMERCE?

[Solver]

It's gold.

I assume some values are designed to scale with game length, then.

[nbarclay]

There is no need to increase the gold bonus per turn on Marathon for scaling purposes. Just the fact that there are more turns on Marathon would provide the needed scaling.

[Kuciwalker]

Shrug. The XML says 1 gold, so something must be modifying it.

Well, on a huge map you need to build more harbors (or whatever) to complete quests, so perhaps the reward scales up on bigger maps to match the increased difficulty of completing the quest?

[Kuciwalker]

The reward already scales up on bigger maps by virtue of the fact that you'll have more harbors.
