Congratulations, you have established a landing zone, or beachhead, in the New World and completed Episode 15. In the next episode you will send troops into the province with the beachhead.

The fleet maintaining the beachhead is safe enough for now, because the tribes have no naval forces to threaten it. However, if you were fighting another Great Power, your ships could be intercepted. In that case it would be necessary to send enough force to protect your fleet from hostile ships.
