That's correct. Still, I might manage that prereq regardless, given a bit more time.

The only requirement for trade routes is that the plots of both cities need to belong to the same plotgroup of your ownership. Given that AFAIK unrevealed territory can't belong to your plotgroup, that basically means what I said: reveal the cities on your map! Something new I learned: trade routes aren't bilateral: it's possible for city A to have a trade route with city B without city B having a trade route with city A. Still, Mardoc, I hope you'll allow me to reveal your cities in time, so that I too can profit from the open borders.

Sareln, would you be interested in a map trade to test this theory? Or else just send a unit in each other's territory?

I'm getting trade from your bases Maniac, though only from the first two, not the most recent founding. I think you only need to have revealed up to the border, so get a boat in the water and go find Mardoc  .

You get trade from my bases, but I don't get trade from your bases.  As said in my previous post, trade routes aren't bilateral.
If you don't want to fully share maps, do you mind me sending a rover to map your southern coast? Feel free to do the same with me, so you can trade with my most recent base as well.

We can trade maps later, but once again, I don't believe that you not getting commerce from trade is a problem of base-vision, since I don't have any vision on your bases, just your borders and am still getting the commerce. There's some other factor that we're missing.
In other news, Mardoc, do you want Concordant leadership? If you ever find you do, my vote is definitely for sale.

Looked at it again Maniac, and I'm definitely getting trade routes from cities 2 & 3, but not from city 1. I definitely have the route capacity for it too.

I suspect I'll need to research Algaculture to allow my own plotgroup to cross over ocean.

Without the Concordat itself, probably not.

Hey, there, Sian, how's life treating you over there?
Iskender, any interest in describing your neighbors in exchange for contact?
