“We have finished a little apple tree lane, and are finalizing all farm fields. We just have a potato field remaining, and then we’ll add some small details. The bakery interior was finished, and a couple of terrain and road making tasks have been completed.”

“(Surprise) I didn’t finish the Grimslade sector yet, though there has been more progress than there has been in a while. The area of Grimslade has received a lot of in-depth attention to improving the shapes of the mountains, and while the overall forms are laid in I still need to add detail. After that is done, I will be adding materials, trees, rocks and grass.”
"Aldburg has made remarkable progress thanks to the hard work of a number of builders. The main stretch of the pallisade is complete, the inner wall is complete, work has started on the buildings and roads of the outer bailey, and the inner bailey is also nearing completion. I would say said inner bailey is about 3/5 complete.
The plan for the near future is continue work on the outer bailey, and find a nice texture for the inner bailey’s roads."
Disaster! No one told me anything, so as per usual I’ll have a quick chat about the Resource Packs. At the moment I am working on a huge and epic spreadsheet to compare our 3 existing packs. After that, I’ll look into having a “base pack”, and three “addon packs”, rather than 3 completely separate packs which is very confusing and complicated. Don’t worry though - these will still be released as 3 packs.
In fact, it’s best I don’t go into it as it’ll confuse you all and you don’t need to know about it! All just behind the scenes stuff.
Oh also (I almost forgot), @Tobberz has given up his role in promotions to a new Promotions Team, headed by the Designers. You can check out their first action in the section below!!
Shift click to claim a job, and don’t forget to do /job done [number] when you’ve finished!
To fit with the promotion, here is new artist Stavrdaf’s plot!
A whole lot has happened, I’m very excited for what is to come soon! It looks like we might even be getting to release two maps soon (Setton and Grimslade), with Aldburg to follow on. As RP Manager I’ll do my best at my end to make the maps look as good as possible. See y’all!
