You can only build Small Harbor for now. Big ports can be unlocked in future.
I build a town on the river north of the volcano
I make a port and start to send ships in exploration
I research Sailoring and Copper/tin working
I research fishing and coastal development
I ask San Escobar for their religion, and share mine with them
and search for more obelisks
i send an expedition to the cold south, and equip them (reinforced fabric suits,altough their fur is enough, copper tools, spears, dried jerky) as they are gonna stay for 2 turns, studing and gathering all resource they find, mineral, vegetal or animal, and search for signs of any civilization, primitive settlements or ancient ruins.
i expand to the unclaimed shore at side of my capital, and put a camp on the coast
also what the experimentation with the artifacts yielded?
