Sigh. Gavagai's attack on Superdeath seems to have been successful, Superdeath is holding the turn until the end. A problem with Superdeath being in every single game is that he loses emotional investment instantly if he suffers an upset, and his turnplaying, already kind of iffy, just goes into the toilet.

The forge quest is great, not really because of the rewards of a copper source or shock on swords (although the GE is baller if we can get a religion spread), but because it encourages you to do the painful hard work of actually mass-building forges.

So many islands just here for the taking. My farmer's gambit really should be called, but until it is...

I'd be tempted to settle the island within Seonaidh's BFC, but Seonaldh probably needs that clam for its food

Still worth it just because the second clam is first-ring. With cheap CHM monuments I don't mind waiting for a pop if there's already a good tile to work but ain't no way I'm going to work a 1/3 unlighthoused coast for a couple dozen turns.

Sure, turn 100 is coming soon, but meanwhile: ![[Image: uVKN4QH.jpg]](https://i.imgur.com/uVKN4QH.jpg)
Ginger can mess me up badly soon if he wants; I'm still recovering and the lighthouse push was expensive. Economy about to improve:

I thought you needed Optics for the circumnav bonus in CTH?

In this version it is still trade routes, but just like Thoth said you need optics

At least I'll have trade routes in my island remnants.

If that had been a GE and I'd been able to machinery bulb...no matter, I was back foot front the start.

Bad luck on the GP. I know the feeling.
Krill and I had a lot of spirited debate in the lurker thread about how to play your start fyi. I thought yours was the most interesting, but also hardest on the map. Part of why I am making the PB66 map is I really was itching to make that eastern clam a fish.
