Transporting Units Across Water

When you need to cross deep bodies of water, you can

transport your units by loading them onto a ship, such

as a Caravel.

You can load any unit onto a ship. If you’re in a

multiplayer game, allies can transport each other’s units.

Each ship carries a limited number of units.

To load a ship

Select the unit (or units), and then right-click the

ship. Your units board that ship.

To unload a ship

1. Click the ship you previously loaded. The units the

ship contains appear as icons in the lower-right of

the screen.

2. Click the unit icons one at a time to unload your units

onto shore in a speciﬁc order,

or simply click the Eject

button to unload them all at once.

Moving a Unit Using Waypoints

You can move a unit, such as a Musketeer or Falconet,

along a precise course using Waypoints.

To move a unit

using Waypoints

1. Click the unit (or units)

you want to move.

2. Hold down the SHIFT

key, and then right-

click the terrain to set

a Waypoint. (Repeat

this step until all your

Waypoints are set,

mapping the course you

want your unit to take.)

3. At the last Waypoint,

release the SHIFT key, and then right-click.

Your unit now moves along the Waypoints.
