Like a billion others, I'm stuck. I'm at the part where you save the old man at the lighthouse and meet up with Danielle, blah blah blah. She's supposed to come with you to look for Rheims (forgive the spelling), but she said my crew, or whatever, was too big. I had four ships at the time. I got rid of a ship, got rid of some crew and officers, etc. and now she stands there like a n00b and I can't even talk to her.

There are so many other threads concerning this, but alas, not one of them has a reply. Is this a bug? Is there some way to solve it?

I don't want to go to my last save because it's way back on the French island.. Waaaaay back there (stupid me didn't save to different blocks *slaps self*)..

Please help, people.

go on smuggling, after a few days (or two weeks) go back to the lighthouse by foot or better by ship than Danielle will join you, because she said:
'We meet in a few days here again', or something like this.
Hold it with Microsoft: It's not a bug, it's a feature!

i had this same exact problem i hope your right about just waiting for a few in game days, cuz my last save to was waaaayyyy wayyy back like 4 missions and 6 ships

I went on to Dauwason after she would no longer talk to me....was gone about 4 days, when I came back she still would not speak to me.

Now what...Couldn't find Rheims or Vincent on Dauwasen

I should explain...
I'm not talking about the meeting after she say's we will meet in a couple of days.

I'm talking about after waiting a couple of days and then coming back. She tells me we need to go to Dawsen (sp) and then tells me I have too many men.
Now she does not speak....even after I fire all my men except the min to run a ship.

what do I do?

The answer to the question.....

When you go back to join Danielle you cannot have 4 ships. If you do she will tell you you have too many men and never talk to you again even if you get rid of the 4th ship.
