Other things we need to do:
Make Agora the auctioneer for Land Auctions.
Remove the last paragraph of the Facilities rule and replace it with
"Facilities always have the same owner as their parent land unit" or
smth.
Add a destruction clause to the Facilities rule. Also maybe a
rank-down the facilities clause.
Also, the Land Transfiguration rule may be a bit broken. Make it say
"At the beginning of the second Eastman week of each month, the
following actions occur. The Cartographor SHALL report these changes
in a timely fashion."
