==Setup==

*Orient the new ship in the direction that you wish it to move and place it down.

Line 147 ⟶ 163:
 
*In general, ships and islands should not be moved or jostled outside of actually moving them as part of your turn options. If something does get moved accidentally, you should attempt to put it back in its original position. There are no penalties for this happening, but try to avoid it.
 
==Game End==
The game is over when one player has collected enough treasure on their home Island to win the game.
