Is there any chance of taking out the gem-producer items? The end game of this thing is going to be flat-out retarded if they're left in. I can reasonably see someone having in excess of 1000 clams by the end of the game, and that's just not fun. The thought of a half-ton of fever fetishes makes me weep. If they're taken out the game will actually be about taking territory and finding magic sites, not who can clam-whore the best.
