Find an island where a river runs through... usually you get 3 spots on a river where you can build such factory

Don't remember who or how, but some npc should offer you a boarding party you can bring on any ship

A quick question. How can you build the third warship. Normaly you can build the trader ship and the small warship. But what about the big warship ?

Not sure if this has been posted before. But you can find the Prima Guide on usenet quite handy for some of the achievements.
Like pause for 250 times, name your ships and city's with a certain name and so on.

building houses doesnt do anything. Your settlers need privileges to ascend. usually by building new stuff and produce new goods (including oriental stuff).

It's more like this: You need to build houses to get more people and then you have to fulfill their needs for food/clothes etc for them to advance to another level. Also additional needs appear when you get a certain number of people of a certain type.

you can have all their needs fullfilled and a 100 houses, that stil doesnt means they'll advance build new stuff and they eventually will (seriously, the more advanced my oriental city got, the more advanced my occidental citizen got too).

actually thats true. The number of houses of a given type decide how many privilges of ascension there are for that given type. In addition to the right of ascension a house needs to full a set of requirements.
Just click on that - damn forgot the name - thing where people counteract their loneliness Razz, and look at the tooltips of those stacked housethings with the different levels of citizens.

Yeah that calculator's immensely helpful - optimizing the production chains with it is a breeze.

How do you get beggars tho? Or do they appear when people lose houses due to fire etc?

They come in randomly in a boat to your harbor and ask for permission to settle in, if you allow 200 beggars will be added to your city, only thing they give you is few extra priviliges to upgrade peasant to citizen and take up some of your food and you need Alms House for this.
If you denie them, eventually they will attack one of your islands and sit there for a while, you can either pay them and allow to come to your city or send your military after them or just wait till they leave.

I've got a bug. Mission 5. I need 100 prestige to make an indigo farm to make paper and books.
Problem is.. I can't get it.
I had a mission to build 3 warships which I did. Problem is the quest won't complete. I sent them to the port and they guy acknowledges them and if I sail them away he's mad. But I can't get the reward which is prestige I think. Marie was supposed to attack and I think something happened and she didn't.
