Does anyone know how you could use a 1/2 strength bateaux (with a capacity of 10) to build a depot?

Depot requires 8 elements of supply type at 50% strength or more to build.
(In early versions, it required 2 units at 50% strength or more. Changed to elements at 50% strength or more in a patch somewhere along the way)

A 1/2 bateaux unit is 2 elements, so you'll need to move 6 more to the same port.
Bateaux, Transport ships and Merchants are all "supply-type" ships.


AFAIK, you cannot combine Transport ships with Supply Wagons to get to "8" elements. The ships will simply unload the supplies before the depot can be built.
