 +Here is the difference for 15 provinces and T=2x15 turns of horizon (that's a lot) as a function of the number r of remotes used: https://www.desmos.com/calculator/hlhzskmuvr. The values entered for G, g and C are those for the F path with a F2 mage and with LA gem frequency in Dominion 5, but they can be edited to fit your own scenario.
  
 The optimum way of searching those 15 provinces with a single mage if you look at your gem income in 30 turns (ie when the mage has finished walking in the no remote scenario) seems to be 5-8 casts of remotes (less than a gem of difference). (assuming no error in the modeling)  The optimum way of searching those 15 provinces with a single mage if you look at your gem income in 30 turns (ie when the mage has finished walking in the no remote scenario) seems to be 5-8 casts of remotes (less than a gem of difference).
