.CONSTRUCTION INFORMATION

.Build Castles
To  generate revenue  (Gold) and to successfully  fight of enemies  you need a
strong ruling  body. This can be  accomplished  by building many  castles. The
number of  castles that can  be built depends on the size of your  island. You
are allowed 1 castle per 400 acres of land.  Example: You have an  island that
is 2980  acres; You are allowed to build 5 castle. With every castle you build
you will receive an additional 3% in taxes from your subjects. Each castle, if
properly  fortified,  can defend  against a  fleet of  3 ships that are  fully
fortified as well.  Each Castle you  build  will cost |10000 pieces of gold| and
|2000 Board Ft. of timber|. These prices are for Islands that have  already been
developed. If you are building an initial Castle to develope an island it will
cost |50,000 pieces of gold| and no timber.

.Build Grain Mills
Without any  grain mills  you will be  hard pressed to  produce any harvest of
adequate size. The more grain mills you have the better your harvest. You MUST
have  enough to feed  your Subjects and Army or  they may revolt against  your 
your empire and if you do not have enough when you sail your Subjects and Army
will expire.  Each  grain  mill will  cost  you |2500 pieces of gold|  to build.

.Build Timber Mills
Timber is required not only to export and sell, but also to build your Castles
and  Ships.  The more timber  mills you have, the more  you can produce.  Each
Timber Mill will cost you |1500 pieces of gold| to build.

.Build Your Fleet
Before you  can sail the open seas and  conquer/develop other Empires you must
build  your fleet.  This is where you can  purchase your individual ships that
will  make up your fleet.  Each ship you build  will cost you |5000 in Gold| and 
|1000 Board Ft. of Timber|. Each ship has a limit to how much cargo and how many 
passengers it can  carry so the more you build the more you can  carry and the 
better you will do should you have to battle another Empire.
