Boat

From Populous Wiki

Boats are what Braves construct when ordered to into a Boat hut. Go figure! Boats have the uncanny ability to explode randomly, usually just as you jump into them. We don't know for sure, but experts are saying that this is due to the "Hunkka Hunkka" wood being used in their construction. The "weartha fuhgahwee" tribe is notable for its exceptional exploding boat range, which ranges from novelty goods to the man who takes his boat seriously.

Additional Information

Many people have never used boats in Populous, don't be fooled by these people as 9 out of 10 of them know how to make you turn boats off in the initial game setup. Most notably by saying "omfg u put on baots u perik" followed by consecutive presses of the holy grail "Alt + F4". To gain a proper understanding of how boats are made please look down below, and no, we don't mean that kind of 'down below' either. However if your name is Keith52 you're excused. ;)


How to make boats

To start producing Boats send a brave into a boat hut, he will then proceed to play with his wood and voila, you've got a boat! Who'd have known that wood can be so elongated and elegant. Whilst his most holy of rituals is going on you can see the completion status by looking at how big it is. You may also purchase an insta-boat pack off E-bay for the cost of an arm and a leg.


How to use a boat

Assuming you're the player, you don't need to know how to use a boat beyond clicking where it should go. Fuck off if you are expecting any information on how to use one.

If you're a brave however, I have one thing to say. You better have built that thing properly when you had the chance.
