    Default Can't attack enemy in protectorate territory????

    Hello Friends,
    I am playing as GB and I am at war against the Iroquois. The Iroquois army is running in front of me in the Boston territory and I am unable to attack it? Boston is owned by the 13 colonies and the enemy troops are holed up in a fur trade post? What the hell is happening?

    I've not come across this myself, but I would imagine that because they are in the fur-trapper post, the game thinks that you are trying to attack that rather than the enemy. You'll probably have to wait until they leave it and then attack them. Its a bit like of your enemy has a fleet in one of your ally's ports you cant kick them out with one of your land units.

    Yes exactly, those guys shuffle from the boston harbor to the fur trader port and i can't do anything to them. This is a bug is there any fix for it?

    I went out with my army and stood near them but they didn't attack and when I went away they came out and went to the fur trade post.

    not that I know of. My only suggestion is to try positioning your army so that their zone of control covers the other building, but not where they are at the moment. Hopefully you will have the chance to intercept them when they try and move.

    You could try leaving a large enough army in range of the trading post, then move in a single unit from outside the area of control. They might try to intercept that single unit and you can call in the larger army as reinforcements.

    I have had that exact same problem with the exact same fur post.
