EXODUS to america

[Orion the hunter]

hello
im playing as portugal

for the past years since i have exterminated the moors got timbuktu tunisia and the other african and moor regions exept tripoli to the east Spain And my country are fighting in a guerilla warfare

They have massacred 7 of my family members assasinated 3 disgraced one of my princess
i killed 2 of their kings 1 heir and 5 family members

but the tides have changed they have captured lisbon granada cordoba and the settlement that starts with the letter m bellow granada

i have a caravel filled with troops that have escaped from lisbon with in it is the king and one family member
im at the black part of the sea but i dont know which way to go can you tell me how to get to america ?

[Lord Minotaur]

just go and go and you will see americas

That settlement is Marrakesh. Just keep on moving to the west. You will encounter land after about eight or more turns.

[Orion the hunter]

but its just a black end

[Silverheart]

Wait, don´t you have most of Africa left?
why not make a stand there? Just put a single strong army on the road from Marrakesh, and build up a strong garrison in the fortress there (the one in the region between Marrakesh and Tunis), that should keep them at bay.
And then, send an army of excess troops to take the Sahara regions.

However, about the fleet, you should just sail west anyway, like the others said, and find the Americas. Just keep sailing west, and you´ll eventually find something. If the map ends, just sail to the north or south, and you´re bound to run into something. The Americas are there!
Take the few rebel regions there are, and get those colonies up and running (Be wary of the Aztecs, though, one full army is not enough to beat them)
Then you should have enough money to counter the Spaniards.
How the heck can you lose so gravely to them, anyway?

Unless you really did reached the western edge of the map, it is just an unexplored region. Select your ship and observe the green movement range. If there were still space to the west, keep moving west until you really hit the edge of the map or you find land. Otherwise move up or down.

Edit: Ah, you may be right tudor93. Orion the hunter, what turn is it?

[painter]

You should have put out spies to observe the Spanish lands. That may have given you enough warning to start building up forces for defence. As for the excommunication threat, if you were capable of defending with only the garrison when the enemy attacks, then there is a fair chance that the pope will excommunicate Spain instead. Unless the pope came from Spain or Spain bought him.

You, playing as Portugal.... lost against Spain??

That's the first faction I usually take out as Portugal... Forget rebel Settlements, deal with Spain before taking Valencia and Zaragoza. Then drive out the Moors.

I played a nice campaign as Portugal where I was allied to Spain. I kept Lisbon as my Capital and invaded France from Pamplona and Zaragoza. By the time I got bored, I had defeated France, England, and Milan. Spain never betrayed me and expanded into the Moors territories.

If you really want an exodus to the Americas than try to get Miccosukee and Caribbean quickly and bring a diplomat to sign trade rights with the Aztecs. If you don't want to fight them, just don't send your armies into their lands.

it happened to me too.... i got jacked by the spaniards...2 of my stacks [my ONLY stacks] were en route to antioch so my garison was rather thin...I only lost Pamplona and Valencia but I know what you feel mate,,,,

[Leaf-Fan-Forever]

With any Iberian country I ruin the fun too quickly by taking all of Iberia. Then the campaign becomes more tedious and less historical.

The only place you can land is to the west in a straight line with Ireland so move west in that direction only otherwise you will just waste your time until a storm hits your troops.
