The Port is a building that costs 7 stars, produces one population, turns a land unit that moves onto it into a Raft, and forms city connections over water with cities or other Ports no more than four water tiles away. The building is unlocked by the Fishing technology and can only be built in shallow water or on flooded fields.
Most land units will become a Raft after moving onto a Port. However, there are some exceptions:
- The Giant will become a Juggernaut.
- The Cloak will become a Dinghy
- The Dagger will become a Pirate.
- Units with the float and fly skills do not change.
Players cannot use any Port in enemy territory.
History[]
- Prior to the Path of the Ocean update, the Port cost 10 stars to build and produced two population. The Customs House, replaced in the same update by the Market, produced two stars per turn per adjacent friendly Port.
- The Market formerly doubled its production when placed next to a Port.
