My world does not have any oil...like any that I've seen and I put a bunch of resources into finding some. I am trying to have my country unify all the lands and I cannot attack the last island. The other islands I demanded through the grievances, but cannot do that for the last one. Any suggestions on what I can/should do?

Are you saying that you can't start a siege from the water with an embarked land unit? If so that's a pretty big oversight.

That is a known issue and they have acknowledged working on it. In the meantime you can use units with the Bombard ability to attack and destroy some of the districts on the coast so you can land some troops. Airplanes should also do the job.

I don't even think there's a good way out of this issue, allowing the assault in any way puts defenders in major disadvantage. IMO, making heavy ships with bombard ability part of the troop chain much earlier, so that you can just erase those cities, maybe even already in Ancient Era would help.

Ancient Era is a bit too early, mostly because seafaring becomes largely available during the Medieval Era. Or if you want to go that early you will need to include something as Fire ships that will suicide themselves on a district, causing a massive fire there.

I would also like to have more units with the Bombard ability, even if they have limited range. :)

Hey everyone,


It is indeed not currently possible to start a siege from water, this is due to a technical limitation we came upon during production. Right now, the only thing you can do if there are no free tiles to disembark on the island is to actually make room with bombardment and nukes.
And as far as I love leveling cities to the ground and conquer their ashes, I can say that we do not intend to keep it that way. We are currently working on improvements that should allow sieges from the water.
Be sure to check patch notes regularly to not miss it when it comes out ;)


Cheers :)

@Chocossimo I understand that you cannot start a siege from water. I've tried with every ship I have available :( The issue is there is no way to get troops with bombardment and nukes without oil. Since, my game has no oil I cannot obtain troops such as siege cannons or battle ships. Glad to hear they are working on a possible fix though, since its so sad to get so close but not finish.
