    Default Discover the Americas yourself!!!

    When there's topics about getting to the Americas, people always mention that it comes up in an announcement, then you can sail there. However, you can actually discover it yourself!

    What you'll need is to build a Naval Drydock in your settlement. This will allow you to recruit Grande Carracks, (Spain, Portugal) Carracks, (the other European Factions) and Baglah's. (Muslim factions) One you've built these, you can proceed to sail westward until you get to America. It's best to discover America first, that way you'll be able to take the rebel settlements first.

    You can only build a naval drydock and recruit ocean going ships after the world is round event. After that you can sail west and you discover America. But you still need the world is round event.
    Officer to a soldier who refuses to fight: There three types of soldiers who don't have to fight. They are called KIA, MIA and POW and you are not one of them.

    Tosa will be missed.

    You need the event in order to build the Carrack...

    And It's not like there are any competitions in the colonization of the Americas, the AI in the vanilla is too stupid to built Carracks and to explore. Of course I could be wrong I've never seen them do it...

    ^I know you need the event, yes, but really it's one of those events that seems like it could be easily ignored by people.

    So wait, you created a thread in which you posted incorrect information and then you admit that you knew this beforehand?

    One has to wait for the world is round event in order to make ships capable of crossing the Atlantic Ocean.

    After that event:-
    In the building called Dockyard(Doesn't need the world is round event to build)
    • You can recruit Caravel if playing as Spain or Portugal.(Needs the world is round event to build)


    You can Build Naval Drydock(Needs the world is round event to build)
    And under this building:-
    • You can recruit Carrack for east euro,north euro factions and for Byzantium, Papacy if playing, sicily, milan and Venice.
    • You can recruit Caravel if playing as Spain or Portugal.
    • You can recruit Grande Carrack if playing as Spain or Portugal.
    • You can recruit Baghlah if playing as an Islamic Faction.


    All these 4 ships mentioned above have the capability to cross the Atlantic ocean.
    These are all Heavy Warship types and are the most powerful in M2TW.
    Also from the above info you can easily see that the Spanish and Portuguese have the advantage to reach the New world before any other faction.

    Cheat way:-
    Click on an admiral see his name say Admiral Doyle.
    Then open the console and type:-
    Code:
    create_unit Doyle carrack
    Separate the carrack from rest of the navy as they can't cross Atlantic ocean and reach Americas early with an army etc.

    I've been trying to use that code, do I need to have the World is round event to use that cheat?

    No you don't all you need is a correct name of the admiral.
