Make and clone new troops and buildings: ---------------------------------------- Press P during game play to display a list of countries and items from that country. Choose your country (for example, if you are playing as France select the country France) from the right side of the list. This will bring up a new list on the right side, with people and buildings from your country. Choose what you want to build (for example, King's Musketeers) from the right side and click on the button on the bottom-left corner. The button looks like a word in a different language. This will take you off the list screen and back to the game. When you left-click the mouse you will be able to build multiple duplicates of what you selected. To build the duplicates you mist have the correct resources. To get it to where you can select troops instead of make them, just P again, select your country, and press that same button you pressed in the bottom-left corner. Speed up the game: ----------------- Press enter and type speed. This will speed up the game twice. Sinking enemy ships: -------------------- The situation will present you with much lighter naval force than your enemy where frontal attack can only yield in failure for your cause. However, by bug or just bad intelligence, there is a way to sink much tougher ships with your light ones. Use one as a lure, and set up a trap by your other ships. Enemy will start to track the ship they spotted first and will follow it all the way, so you can just go along and sink them with your other ships while they won't react to that and will continue to follow your first ship. Use small yacht as a bait as it is faster than those heavier ships and will give you more time to sink the pursuing enemy ships. Market Tricks -------------- Markets are definitely one of the more interesting facets of Cossacks. There is more to using them than meets the eye... Don't click trade more than once. New players may not realize this but clicking 'trade' 5 times with 1000 resources is one of the worst things that can be done at the market. It is much better to specify 5000 resources and click 'trade' once. This is because the buying price for the target resource is increased with each trade. The only exception to this rule is 'reverse trading' (keep reading). All players share in the fluctuating market values. New players may not realize that market prices are the same for all players. If one player makes a trade, the prices are changed for everyone. Nearly every good start involves selling resources, so to get the best prices, you want to be the first player to build a market and start trading. Reverse trading. An important feature of the market that is often overlooked is the fact that prices can be inflated by 'reverse' trading. Say for example you want to buy some gold, and you have 100000 stone (thanks to the 400% stone upgrade). Simply trade away gold in 1000 increments and you'll notice the buying price for gold drop dramatically. An example would be: 83 gold currently sells for 1000 stone(1:12). That's really high. Reverse trade 8000 gold in 1000 increments to bring the price down to 205 gold per 1000 stone (1:5). Now, trading away your stone will yield over 100% greater profit.
