Here's an item I haven't seen in the forum yet.

I've advanced quite far in normal difficulty. All research completed and large cash reserves. 20k pop. of aristocrats, and achieved independence.

I began building a large military to kill off the 3 AI's. I built 10 howitzers and set them to rally near my shipyard. Only 7 moved to rally point, the other 3 stayed in the fortress, and will not move at all. Any suggestions?

Have you tried moving the seven to see if the three will then leave the fortress and move to the rally point? Perhaps there was not enough space for them at thee rally point?

Yes, I loaded the 7 on a couple ships, and the 3 still stubbornly refused to move. I executed them for their insubordination. I then built 3 more, one at a time, all rallied as ordered. Weird.

Indeed:rofl:

I certainly like the howitzers. Quite effective when teamed with dragoons. 4 howis and 4 dragoons can really tear up an island in a hurry.
