The EpicQuestz Newsletter
ISSUE 71 - 21 September 2026
Hello, here we are again! It’s me, Rio of the 155th, back to write another newsletter. Progress has been made, blocks have been placed, and blood, sweat, and tears have been spilled. Projects are several steps closer to completion, and with all this in mind, it’s time to publish a newsletter. Let’s dive right in!
-@Rio155
A whopping 20 newly built houses have been approved by @Tobberz, so I have went ahead adding 20 more jobs to the todo list of the builders. This is a direct consequence of planning being resumed on District 4, in the south-western part of the city. This district will be similar to District 3, with lower class citizens but with a few hints of middle class closer to the larger streets. The new layouts take into consideration historical changes (i.e: abandoned/ruined buildings, renovated/expanded complexes, etc…) and I’m taking some steps to accommodate more vegetation.
Additionally, sloes_ has built us a beautiful park in the intersection between the 3rd, 2nd and 1st districts. We are now also working on the style and design of the houses for the 2nd District. Finally, Starship has kindly completed the layout for the old city walls in the centre of the west bank, and work has begun building new houses in that area. Those will be the extension of District 1.
A lot of this progress was also made possible thanks to @Cursed who have been hard at work on this project, but other builders have helped as-well.
- Project Leader, @LimeeFox
There are about ~4 houses left to decorate inside, and we have a few Hobbit holes that lie empty. @Tobberz has conducted more work on the farm fields outside of the city and the layout is ready for the next stage of building.
The next build session will bring the return of exterior timelapse shootings. Our plan is to resume works on gardens/yards and decorate the remainder of the southern part of the town.
-Project Co-Leader @LimeeFox
Cirith Ungol has gone through major upgrades this time. With the new addition of 007Peanut_ in our team, along with the help of Redbommer, Rio155, Marcoiscool, almost the entirety of Cirith Ungol is filled up and ready for war in the name of the Dark Lord! All that is needed now is two big rooms that need to be redesigned and the addition of the unforgiving, rocky blades of Ephel Dúath. Cirith Ungol will soon to be commissioned to serve the eye!
- Project Deputy, @Grissum1
Tobberz created an EpicQuestz profile on curseforge and uploaded Grimslade and Aldburg there. He will be adding more projects there in the future, and it serves both as an extra backup for world saves and to get extra reach. You can visit it here.
The jobs plugin has gone through a huge update by StealWonders.
- The UI has been entirely refurbished and the plugin has new colours and formatting
- Jobs can now be sorted as Interior Structure, Exterior Structure and Pathway making it easier to find the kind of work you want.
- Projects can now have deputies who will have access to job management on a specific project (but not project management)
- /project info has been updated to show the leader, deputies, status and creation date plus a click-to-teleport straight to the build site
- /job list player opens a menu of every job a player has claimed: filter by Active, Done or Completed.
- A Back button now appears consistently in every menu
- Command suggestions now only list active projects
A reminder that Axiom licenses unfortunately have to be managed personally by each user (simply type /whynoaxiom when you log on, and you will be prompted to send a message on the Axiom discord server to receive 30 to 90 days whitelist to use it)
- Members now have access to the Terrain channel on Discord!
- Our main server spawn has received a small update, including a new hologram to help new players find their way around the server!
A new builder has joined our ranks! Everyone, welcome 007Peanut_ to the team!
Rumours have it that a few more applications are on their way!
For Featured Creation, I’m going to feature one of my own builds for a change! Grissum1 and I have been working on a Dunland area, with the big dream of one day creating an entire Dunland world. Here showing the first village I completed!
For those interested, everyone is welcome to help out with the project! Just give a ping!
And don’t worry, I won’t take all the spotlights for myself. We’ll also be featuring a superb statue by @Kratos! And finishing off with a lovely snowy cabin by @LordMockingjay75 who has been featured for the second time in row!
Another couple of months have passed, with a lot of progress over these past few months! Fingers crossed this progress continues, bringing us closer to launching new projects. So keep on building Builders, keep on being artistic Artists, keep on designing Designers and keep on creating Creators. That’s all for now. Rio of the 155th, signing off!
