Missing Ships?

I currently have 8 trade ships that I bought. I have 4 in the field delivering marble shipments. The rest are supposedly in port after running pillaging runs on completely undefended towns (mil score: 0). But my ship indicator only show one ship available (see pic below).


Anyone got any ideas? I'd kinda like to know where my ships went!

Probably blockaded at some point and delivering their goods to the owner of a blockade.

Re: Missing Ships?

I also had this when 2 of my ships 'disappeared' when I sent them on a raid. They then suddenly reappeared enroute to their targets without any explanation!

I just assumed it was a bug (after a panicky hour or so). Hopefully, they'll just reappear and it's not some nasty after your goodies.

Re: Missing Ships?

Re: Missing Ships?

Was it only supposed to be a 3 hour tour?

Re: Missing Ships?

The longest pillage was 2 hours round trip, including loading time. If your ships get destroyed, do they get removed from your list or do they just not show up and leave you wondering? Cause all my battle reports indicate wins and no troop/asset losses.

EDIT: just checked the forums. it's supposedly a bug they they're working on. some people's entire fleets (20+ ships) have gone missing and the GMs cant help until the bug gets fixed. So be careful with your ships I guess.

Re: Missing Ships?

trade ships cant be destroyed, and the only thing I've read about them getting lost was when they were returning and found your port blockaded. That was supposed to have been fixed in v.0.1.8 tho (the version currently running)

Re: Missing Ships?

Ypu, never been blockaded, so it shouldnt have happened. Theres a LOT of people complaining about it on the bugs forum.

Must be a giant sea serpent. Or maybe Poseidon hasn't received his tribute.
