Skills

Various skills might be required for creation, use, or advanced use of some buildings, such as: Alchemy, Tinkering, Enchanting, Arcane Rituals, Divine Rituals, and so on.

Profession: Architect

For Profession: Architect, for every three levels of this profession, the town can replace Construction Resources paid to build buildings with Wealth by utilizing the resources more efficiently and with reduced waste.

No more than half the total amount of Construction Resources can be paid for in this manner, regardless of skills used.

Profession: Lumberjack, Miner, Quarryman

For every three levels of these professions for paying, attending, and community shift completing characters, one of the Town’s corresponding Basic Production builds produces an additional output of the relevant type.

Thus three Apprentice Quarryman will produce an additional Stone, one Master Lumberjack will produce an additional Lumber, and so on.

The amount of additional Resources gained cannot exceed the Basic Production Buildings of each type.

Profession: Merchant

For every three levels of Merchant profession for paying, attending, and community shift completing characters, corresponding costs from NPC merchants will be reduced. In addition, the cost of Guildhouse production is reduced by 10 Coin or 10 Bloom. The total reduction of the Guildhouse cost cannot exceed 50 Wealth in this manner.

Thus three Apprentice Merchants will reduce the cost by 10 Coin, or 2 Master Merchant would reduce the cost by 20 Coin or 20 Bloom and so on.

Profession: Scout

For every three levels of Scout Profession for paying, attending, and community shift completing characters, the corresponding values for the Scouting reports are improved to the next tier of Scout Tower.

Thus three Apprentice Scouts would improve the report by one Tier, or 2 Master Scouts would improve the report by 2 Tiers, and so on.

Tiers gained in excess of Grand Watchtower may be spent by the Council for particular insight into the nature of the incursion or the plans of the attackers.

Profession: Construct Administrator

For every level of Construct Administrator Profession for paying, attending, and community shift completing characters, the corresponding number of Builder Constructs that can be controlled by Town increases by 1.

Thus an Apprentice Construct Administrator would improve the ability of town to control on additional Builder Construct, while a Master would improve the number by three.

The default number of Builder Constructs that can be controlled by town is 1.

Buildings

Default Building Statistics

Unless otherwise specified builds have the following default properties:

        

Building Durability

Buildings owned by the “town” are perpetual, as long as the number of each type is less than or equal to the Campaign Year + The Tier of the Building the Shrine of Voxus is housed in.

Campaign Year is 3

Shrine Dedicated to Voxus is 0

Durability: 3

Buildings owned by non-town groups always have a duration on them, usually one campaign season, where they will fail due to exhaustion or other problems. This duration is “visible” to the players, and is explicit when it is purchased/built.

Example Building Layout

<Name of Building>

Requirement: Any other prerequisites needed to construct the building, such as earlier iterations, or other buildings, actors, or plot needs.

Build Cost: The Required amount of resources required to build the building.

Relevant Skills: Skills or professions may affect the building (positively or negatively) mechanically, sometimes at plot discretion.

Description: Description of what the building is and does. The full effects of the building may be hidden, and include other benefits or effects that aren’t immediately apparent.

Construction Process

Relevant Skills: Profession: Architect, Profession: Construct Administrator

Once the Council determines that a new building or buildings are necessary, the resources and coin must be gathered, that plan clearly documented, and the Building Constructs signed off by the Construct Administrator.

These must all be presented to Staff on Sunday prior to 10 AM, so that the Town Construction mini-game can be prepared in time to be completed before close of game.

Environmental Effects

For Advanced Production Buildings (Ex. Ironworks, Sawmill, Stonemasonry), there is a limit to the amount that a given area can produce without negatively affecting the surrounding environment. This limit is three: these slots may be taken up entirely by one production building type, or spread across the three.

Environmental Infrastructure

When the total Advanced Production in a township exceeds three total output, these buildings will negatively affect the surrounding environment. However, with pre-planning and foresight, these negative impacts can be mitigated or the tolerance of the environment can be enhanced.

Basic Environmental Infrastructure

Build Cost: Any Two: [Stone, Lumber, Ore], 2 Forgesources

This building takes the most basic of efforts to reduce the negative impacts of advanced buildings. Each of these foundational structures negates one “point” worth of negative environmental effects.

Townships

Each township contains the basic plot of land and environs the buildings within it occupy. The basic statistics apply only for the township, and any bonuses that buildings grant only apply within that township, unless otherwise explicitly stated.

Crowne Point’s borders only allow for three of these at the moment, one of which is west of Crowne Point, one north of Crowne Point, and one south of Crowne Point. Further areas may become available through Plot interactions.

Township Infrastructure

Build Cost: 2 Stone, 2 Lumber, 2 Ore, 4 Forgesources

Environmental Impact Slots: 3

This creates the foundation for a small new region inside the greater reach of the city-state of Crowne Point.

As part of this, it creates a new set of Environmental Impact Slots (3), and allows for the duplication of buildings that are otherwise unique inside the city limits of the town of Crowne Point.

The township itself starts with nothing - this is merely the foundational planning for the new town center, and this new town does not benefit from any other effects that are present in the core of Crowne Point.

The Town Council should provide a name for the new township when it is requested - names will be reviewed for appropriateness and in-genreness.

They may also consider re-naming the city-state or capital at some point, to reduce the confusion between the city-state and its capital, once that distinction becomes necessary.

Production Buildings

Environmental Production Limits

Each production building beyond the Basic builds can be used more than once per event to produce additional resources via the normal recipe they provide. However, doing so, causes waste, and additional Environmental Impact on the surrounding land. Each time a building produces it generates Environmental Impact based on the Fibonacci sequence, starting with its Base Environmental Impact value, and ascending from there.

Thus, the Ironworks, with an Environmental Impact Base Value of one would produce 1 Impact if used once, and then another if used twice, but then would produce two on the third use (for a total of four that event), as the building's efficiency and waste start to spiral out of control.

For reference: the first ten values of Fibonacci’s Sequence are: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, and 34.

Basic Production Buildings

Basic Production Buildings have a base of 200 Life Points.

These buildings provide a passive income of Basic Construction Resources (3 per Weekend based on their type), there are three types:

Advanced Production Buildings

Advanced Production Buildings have a base of 400 Life Points. Subject to Environmental Impact limits.

Ironworks (Built - “The Die is Cast”)
