Thanks! I not infrequently get mechanics incorrect, so appreciate the good information. Also appreciate your thought on forting that province. I can say, alas, that the province is still not forted. R'lyeh paid me several hundred gold around turn 8 in exchange for ceding claims on the island to the south along with a NAP 3 and both agreeing to not fort up the future Rlyeh island or the Shinu coastal province with the high income. While the gold was a short-term boon, we are now in the late 20s and the extra income over the turns + security would have been substantial. So a short term gain for a long-term cost.

Forts boost gold income with a percentage equal to half their administration value. Also, I totally would also fort that province
