what the title says lol, i tried to use an archer to attack a resourse building but that combat arrow head thingy didnt show up.

you can't take over/destroy a bulidng with a archer
if the buildings i occupied you can only take it over with commandeers and destroy it with all melee! units.
if it' empty you can take it over with every unit except ranged! units

Hanky meant you can NOT take over resource buildings with ranged units.

Seeing where your questions go... my suggestion is: Read the online manuals! They'll help you far more than we can and speed up your enjoyment.

Cheers

didn't i say that

Hanky you sassy upstart... your post edited time shows

thnx guys

yeha i know thats why i say

So I read the manual. It says to move my commandiers next to a building, then click the building. A Take over option should appear.

When I click on the building, it says it's an unknown woodmill in thick swamp. Tells me how many health and everything, but there's no Take Over Option that I can see.

The only thing I can think of is that it's the start of the game.

Where exactly is the "Take Over option"? Is it a button below the picture of the woodmill?

You cant take over anything on turn 0, also if there are other troops than yours close by, its not possible.

Whenever I try to take over a building, it damages it. Why does it do that?

Because you are selecting to destroy the building not take it over...If there are other troops or barbs near it then all you'll get is a destroy option...Meaning you will need to destroy the barbs before you can take it over...

All things take a 20% damage when taken over , its to simulate the fight over them I guess.

and u can distroy a building with a range troops. as long as it has the wrenches working. u can attack it with ur range troops.
