Exactly what am I supposed to be doing? Stop the fire, got that. Conquer Egypt sure. What about the other two groups. The hints thing is very confusing about this. It says go after them but do I need to? Do I even need to keep my northern settlement? Can't I just move everything to the south island and work from there?

I beat it with guess work. Not that hard actually when I played it smart.

I'm onto the final Amazon mission so keep an eye out for further postings. It actually looks like it should be simple but all the stuff I've read about it tells me to prepare for hell. Oh joy.
