Talk:Briggs

I was under the impression that Briggs' original ship was a sailing ship. Before battling his crew, one of the crew members mentions that Champa had been building such ships already.
 * As you know, the ship wreckage at the cliffs between Indra and Osenia is the original ship that Briggs used. It was kind of a small ship, and as you can see from the wreckage it had two sails. One would have to presume that the way that ship was used was that the crew was using oars for propulsion, and the sails were used both for steering and for some extra propulsion. This more primitive Champa design is different from the radical-for-its-time Sailing Ship design that Alhafra made: a huge ship propelled entirely by catching the wind in its huge sails, without using any oars at all. That's pretty much the while idea going on there. The only unusual part is that the Alhafran design is the only one that's properly called the "Sailing Ship" while the other ones like what Briggs had are merely ships that sail.

Izumo trading
I thought I had Mind Read everyone in Champa and Izumo, and I never heard of any trading occuring between the two towns. Where does it say they traded? Phimi 22:56, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
