Good Evening

I'm stuck in the first british mission - Bermuda
My colony is now well settled, but i don't find a way to build Fregate.
I only have Shipyard allowing me to produce boat ship.

I guess i'm missing a (big) button somewhere and it's very frustrating.

Thanks for help,
To build warships you need:

a shipyard (duh)
artillery factory (it needs cannons)

academy with "Frigate Rigging" or something like that, technology (left side of the academy)
First you need a Stable to build an Artillery Depot, which will initially allow you to build Yachts and Galleys. There's two researches at the Academy for new ships, "Develop new methods of woodworking" gives you Frigates(should be located under the tech that doubles your fishing boats capacity) and "Design rib system" gives you Battleships(tech is under the upgrade for ships' speed on the right of the list).

I also *heavily* recommend the "Train carpenters" tech that cuts the build times for ships down to a tenth of what it normally is.

I also recommend using Frigates in this mission over Battleships, as Battleships have a ridiculous gold upkeep.
Obvious. I missed the Stable, needed to build artillery factory. Then, warships. Thanks Ziame!

Thanks for the tips. Now I can crush the Dutch Navy! I begin to understand all tech at the Academy. The lack of tutorial and in-game help is disturbing.
