Hey Bobo, to give you fair warning, putting 7500 men plus food and tonnes of equipment onto 3 colonial era ships for such a long voyage is likely going to result in no small amount of disease, starvation and death on the way there.

Well then edits abroad
EDIT: What would I do to solve this ten survivor problem? I atleast want them to start out with a populated colony(ies), and not have to go through an Adam/Eve thing :3

Send less people on the ships. Sending 7500 people ob 3 ships as you did means you'd be putting 2500 people on each ship. Plus when you've got all that extra colonial stuff to carry, you have less space anyway. Keep your numbers low for the first colony, I advise, as you're taking all your goods. Encourage emigration to the colonies and get people to move of their own accord, and ship larger numbers across yourself at a later date when you wont have to ship so many supplies with them.

He's already changed it, but there's still about 800 people per ship plus all supplies and such

If you want the original figures he was sending, I believe it was 5000 conscripts and 2500 colonists

Eitherway, I sense he's sending too many aboard too few ships. I advise anyone who hasn't launched colonial fleets yet to exercise restraint when deciding your figures, you can always ship more people over later when you don't have to take tonnes of livestock and materials with you

Really sorry about not posting, I just finished a particularly grueling math unit, which also happened to be taught by a teacher who may or may not actually know anything about what she's teaching. I spent a lot of time studying, but hey! I'm back, and a post is going to happen!

Later. Because I live in North Carolina, And it's already morning here.

Welcome to being a free market; Its not just capitalists who might decide to buy stuff up and start businesses xD

And problems? Well yes, it'll probably stir up your little DIP problems, I suppose. I hope you do get those under control, it would ve very nasty if the ETC's. the EOC's or HM's properties start getting destroyed...

I do hope the others post soon... Its time to begin stealing lands!

So, five have posted. We await 3 more.
