It's easy to "lame" a base. Change stance to Neutral with Castillan villages and convert vills with Missionary and Monk you get from red. Use tribute to buy wood and build a monastery to store Relic on the mainland and establish a Lumber camp to gather wood. After a couple of houses you can buy some food for more villagers and then you can do what you want, even dock and build army behind Isabelistas.
