great mod. i've been playing for a while but i still don't understand how ship recruiting works. i'm currently playing as the danes. how do i create ships better than longboats?

[Rex Inanimatus]

you'll have to wait until you can buy a shipwright

[Rumpletumpskin]

so i have to wait until a certain year or stage of development for my cities/castles?

[Rumpletumpskin]

this has been driving me as nutty as a squirrel's turd. i take acre in 1121 as the danes and when i check the building browser it says i can't build a shipwright in a city but i can in a stone castle. so i convert to a stone castle and then the browser says the exact opposite.

[Rex Inanimatus]

just look at the building browser and view all buildings, there you can see what you need to upgrade your buldings. This mod is called the long road although it is the worst mod name anyone could imagine on the other hand it is just a long road and you have to wait for your elite army

[Rumpletumpskin]

when checking the building browser in Arhus under the city tab when "ports" is selected i see the following:

level---------city----------castle

town---------port----------port(<these are pictures of course)

thanks for your help Rex but i still don't understand

[Banjeeboy]

You can only build ports until rudders are discovered. (an event)
After that, you can build shipwrights.

Rudder event is roughly 1178... so you have some waiting to do, unfortunately.
