    Default Move Troops To Islands?

    How do I move troops to islands? Please explain in detail as I've tried left clicking on troops and right clicking on ships, etc... and nothing seems to work. I need to attack cities on islands now and can't figure out how to move troops to islands. I appreciate the help very much.

    Order a fleet to move to the shore, then order your army onto the fleet. Once your army has boarded the fleet, select the fleet and click on the island you want to invade.

    1) Left click on the fleet
    2) Right click on the shore where your troops are currently

    The fleet should move to where your troops are.

    3) Left click on the troops.
    4) Right click on the fleet

    The troops should board the fleet

    5) Left click on the fleet
    6) Right click on the shore you want to invade

    The fleet should move to the shore you want to invade.

    7) Left click on the fleet.
    8) Left click on the 'army' tab.
    9) Right click on the settlement.

    The troops should disembark.

    If you are really that lost in this game I suggest playing the tutorial, it explains everything. Ccgr's tips barely scratch the surface of what you can do as far as loading and unloading troops on ships. Seriously- play the tutorial, this is a pretty complicated game and the tutorial covers it quite well..

    I figured it out. You just have to select the troop and then right click the fleet you want to load the troops into. Reverse for disembarkment. The problem I was having was that the fleets moves were over and that confused me. Not any more. Thank you for your replies.
