So i was p;aying the old sid meier's colonization (not the civ4 col) on a website the other day. and a fort in one of my colonies automatically opened fire on an enemy merchantman, but was unsuccessful. I could see the animation of an artillery in my colony attacking an enemy ship , and then getting dissolved. So my doubt was, did my fort/artillery just get destroyed. just like when a soldier unsuccessfully attacks an enemy soldier, he gets destroyed? is my fort damaged or need to be repaired? Or can my fort still attack enemy ships, and isn't harmed? Please help if possible.

Thank you, I will try that.
I destroyed all the native tribes and I don't know how t trade with the Europeans
Thank you, this has been very helpful. I just have one more question. I have been playing Colonization on a website, and I was curious about how much gold can be considered too much. I had about 50,000 gold from Inca and Aztec raids, but then I spent most of it on some new units, buildings like forts, resources, etc. I now have only about 2,000 gold, and I was curious about whether I should cancel my last save and not spend all that money. How much gold can be considered too much, and how much gold do you really need to keep your colonies running? Also, I now have destroyed all the native tribes and explored all the lost cities. Are there any means to earn more money except attacking other European colonies and selling cargo in Europe?
I'm having a problem in Sid Meier's Colonization. I am playing the game on a website that lets you play old games on my computer. Whenever the ship arrives to a port in Europe, I am able to easily buy the resources like food, trade goods, etc. The problem is that whenever I train, recruit or purchase a unit, they appear on the docks, and i select the 'board next ship' option. But they never board the ship. The ship only sails back to the new world with the food, tools, etc resources which can be unloaded in my colonies, but the units i trained like artillery, scouts, etc get left behind at the port in europe no matter how hard i try. Any help with this?
Heres a screenshot. In this game im playing as england. as you can see, the caravel has arrived in London, and i have already loaded it with some resources (food and trade goods). I have also purchased a seasoned scouts, which is waiting on the docks, and I have selected th board next ship option. However despite trying everything, it doesnt get on the ship and is left behind at London. This problem occurs many times. Any help?
