How Trade works

[anweRU]

I query the logic of the useless Irish port for the British though, as it is possible to 'walk' from Scotland to Ireland, though a land bridge does not show on the campaign map.

The Irish port does not have a visual trade route going to it, but it does work.

Note that you start with one trade port in each GB province: 3 trade routes in England, 2 in Scotland and 2 in Ireland. As GB you can have up to 7 trade agreements in your first turn of the game. Ergo, the Irish trade port works. The trade route display is bugged.

But then, what's new?
