i beat the game with only this much bs, 120 total deck, and basically was never in danger of running out of gold
damn. I yearn to be like you. I ran out of gold at 76 people
Wow, I've never had an island look so good, and I never thought of pier ponds!
My islands end up being a very basic wood-house block, stone-house block, one mill, and a huge line of islands going in one direction covered in piers. Ugly as hell.
