Can someone please explain this end of game result?

This game:
https://boardgamearena.com/10/terranova?table=504593545

As you can see the Green (Iomai) got 12 points at end of game

Code: Select all

HoganLong scores 8 with 6 connected Structures (Area scoring)
Iomai scores 12 with 8 connected Structures (Area scoring)

Yet it looks to me like green is not connected. Why is it scored as connected?

[Jellby]

"Count the number of buildings in your biggest group of buildings connected by your reach"

Note that means they don't need to be adjacent (or connected by a bridge), as long as they are reachable within the sailing range.

Thank you, that makes sense now -- I miss-remembered the rules and thought the requirements for making a city also mattered in the end score. This will change my strategy a lot.
