Harbor question

[pedrojedi]

I knew about the food bonus that the harbor gives to the city who builds it. But a food bonus to cities connected to the coastal city? Only the "lake" cities then.

And yeah, commercial dock and stock exchange really make a difference in PTW. I missed the last one in Civ3 1.29.

Harbors act as 'roads' on coastal squares, and on sea and ocean squares after learning Astronomy and Navigation/Magnetism restpectively.

If the civ doesn't know Astronomy, then the cities can only be connected if there is coastal tiles separating them. This usually means, 'on the same continent'.

Has anyone ever successfully managed to conduct a naval blockade? I have attempted it a few times but it never seems to work. Of course if the GUI had some better feedback on this it would be easier to tell.

Yes, but it is very hard to pull off. You have to choke off all paths and any paths they could use through friendly nations.

If you have PTW, you can do a debug scenario to see how it works.

No, you're thinking of the offshore platform. The commercial dock is something new with PTW. OCC = One City Campaign, or something along those lines. You try to win the game with only one city, no empire.

OCC = One City Challenge (not campaign)
