Volcanic Island

Overview

An island setting that makes navy and landing locations essential.

Terrain and layout

A large island has many small bays and peninsulas, with an elevated forest near the center. Bays can restrict naval movement or create small islands connected by shallow water.

Resources and control

The central forest holds most Wood, while bays supply fish and outer areas contain land resources. Stone is more plentiful than on a typical island map, and Sacred Sites lie on opposite shores.

Player considerations

Scout both land and water routes before committing to a navy. Control of the central forest matters for long-term Wood, while ships can support fishing and attack across the shoreline.
