Well nice ideas from MOB on the roving sunflower, will be going IMG. I = am reading "The Roof Of Voyaging" by Garry Kilworth at present. It is = without a doubt THE East Isles book for ideas, they use wind names for = navigation rather than directions from a compass, in other words you = sail into X wind direction, I feel this could be used in the East Isles = perhaps with some wacky names?? There are even some groovy charts = showing these winds, plus loads of Polynesian deites and star = constellations, which would prove a good source of plundering for those = running or planning an East Isles campaign. Oh yes it is well writtten = to and a good read, we even get to meet some weird scots and picts from = a translocated Albion... weird...
cheers
