User manual GAMES PC CONQUEST OF THE NEW WORLD-DELUXE EDITION

[. . . ] Each player sets their own objectives for each game. For some players, winning the game may primarily involve finding lots of new landmarks in the New World and establishing many colonies. For other players, the main objective may be to establish supremacy in the New World by eliminating opponents. The game ends when the preset number of turns has elapsed or when one player achieves the winning number of victory points. [. . . ] Settlers carry all that is required to found a new colony and serve their purpose best when transported to a future colony site, allowing them to get on with their raison d'être. 32 33 CONQUEST OF THE NEW WORLD-DELUXE EDITION-DELUXE EDITIONTM CONQUEST OF THE NEW WORLD-DELUXE EDITION-DELUXE EDITIONTM Holding down the SHIFT key as a unit moves will speed up its movement; it will also speed up the movements of all other units on the map. You can change a unit's destination by clicking on that unit and dragging it to a new target location. You can also change a unit's destination while it is moving by clicking on the map (at a new target location) while holding down the CTRL key. All units have a Moves Remaining box (Figure 51). This box is filled in with red at the beginning of a turn. As you move a unit, the red bar will get shorter and will finally disappear when the unit's movement allotment for this turn is expended. Units will always try to find the best way to get to their destination. Over explored terrain, units will try to avoid movement-slowing obstacles. When heading toward unexplored terrain, units will generally use a straight path approach. For units with Explore buttons, clicking on the Persistent box in the unit's window to place a check mark there will cause the unit to explore automatically at the beginning of each game turn. For all units, clicking on the Persistent box will allow such units to move towards a chosen destination (that is too far to reach in one turn) over the course of several game turns. Otherwise, you will have to try to attach the unit on a future turn.
