- Scout early: Send a fast ship to map edges to reveal resource islands and enemy positions.
- Specialize islands: Dedicate islands to single production chains (one for wood/stone, one for luxuries, one for farming).
- Protect trade: Build multiple small convoys rather than a single large merchant fleet.
- Harbor placement: Use natural reefs and straits as choke-points for defense and to force enemy ships into kill zones.
- Economy scaling: Transition surplus goods into exports early to accumulate coin for military and infrastructure.
- Map Type: Continental
- Best For: Military rush (Venice expansion).
- The Setup: This is a rare "double continental" seed. The northern continent is split by a giant river. Your main island holds 4 Iron Ore and 2 Saltpeter caves (for the Alchemist).
- The Exclusive: The southern island is technically a small northern island floating in the south. It is the only source of Quartz sand in the region, but it has 6 Gold Ore deposits.
- Strategy: Use the gold to sell to Lord Northburgh for instant gold coins. Buy all his tools. You can have an army of 500 troops before the AI reaches the second citizen tier.
