As a newbie (only now, I believe I'm called a 'noob'? UGH! lol) I am looking forward to this expansion with excitement. It appears that Elgea is FULL and it will be fun to have everyone on the same footing, so to speak. It will be exciting if future expansion plans include ocean voyage as well as the possibility of space travel... (Just sayin'...) princess-regent, Iridescent Rivers, Elgea, khrystle-raine...

GM Storm stated that there will be no trading of any kind between Elgea and BL for quite some time, if any ...
same as no sending troops overseas from Elgea to BL either ...
Only Magic, if yours has the range is able to span the vast divide ... but
Beware ... there be Dragons ... lol

In a world where data is coin of the realm, and
transmissions are guarded by no better sentinels
than man-made codes and corruptible devices,
there is no such thing as a secret.

It seems likely that there will eventually be some level of trade between the continents, probably limited to rare resources and crafting goods.
It has been confirmed that at least for the first months of BL, there will be not trade. Of any kind.

Are people really getting so over excited that they are mis-reading this?

I took it to mean there will be a new way to trade between continents that will not be like regular trade.

Sadly, Illy doesn't let players fill town buy orders from a trade hub. I think the speculation (based on the content of the OP) was that all inter continental trade may be through hubs and thus there would not be a method for small southern towns without much gold to trade with a specific hub trader.

You don't need any research other than Haggling in order to place a buy order from your town.
