They do so by taking posession of St Johns Harbor, Newfoundland, where groups of European Fisherman semi-permanently established for the cod fishing off the Great Banks. Having claimed Newfoundland for Elizabethan England Gilbert sails back to England to fetch settlers- His ship is lost on the voyage and he and his crew with it.
But what if it didnt sink? What if Gilbert returned with new Settlers?


Walter Raeligh and Humphrey Gilbert sucessfully establish a New World Settlement in 1578.

St Johns Harbor has access to considerable food resources in terms of fish and can be traded for other food from England. It has the capacity to grow into a major merchant town with access to timber and potential farmland.
