Anyone who gets in and joins fire, you will have to fight pigs, just sayin.
lol most of them are slain! =( i'm trying my best here! haha
Server will be back up in a few more minutes, elan messed up and brought earth above ground! so he's fixing that so none of you cave dwellers Q_Q
Fire is thriving atm, we need some more people on other factions
If I feel like nature or water looks interesting enough ingame, I will join them, but on paper, fire seems most interesting. I think it was the giant volcano as the fire base that really got me interested.
Maybe if the water capital was like a glass fortress that sticks up above the water, with a pool and boats at the bottom, and a water elevator leading to the top of the water fortress.
A glass dome pales in comparison to a giant volcano base tbh.

A note to all those who began settling on the beta build server. I greatly apologize for the loss of effort that you have put into the old map. Unfortunately we have a corrupted save file and are unable to bring back all your hard work. We are currently creating a new beta build map that will have designated build locations for each faction as apposed to just building anywhere like we had before.
Negative of this
-All current progress is lost
Positive of this
- New semi themed zones for each faction
- large building areas which will not require too much in the way of moving land as starting areas will be flat slates

A forums post should be like a mini-skirt. Long enough to cover the Subject. Yet short enough to keep things interesting!

i advise when we actully fighting and destroying stuff to back them map up every 15 mins or so because i can see problems with water and fire
fire attacks water bucket of laval near waters capital could end up losing capital

well the use of lava/fire/water is prohibited from anyone who is not an admin but we will be backing up regularly.

well fire still has a massive pool of lava they could lead it to waters capital/bases and cover them and obsidian although that would be a very effective defense against water

thats why fire and water start on opposite sides of the map ^.~ the only thing we are SLIGHTLY worried about is fire leading lava to nature and burning world tree, but we will have them spawned far enough that they wont be able to even do that =P

so they will be in 3 diff corners air in middle and earth somewhere
I was thinking that it could be in a pentagram formation (since thats usually how elements are displayed) although it could be a triangle with Water, Fire and Nature, Air is above the triangle and Earth is below. Anyway hope to see you guys on the Beta map. I'll probably be Air since that is what I've been building examples for.
I was wondering can we switch elements between wars?

ya there will be times we permit people to change between elements so they dont get too bored with the map, building the same art style 50 different ways is still the same art style in the end after all =P
We are going for sort of a square shape.

Blue is water
grey is air
green is nature
black is earth
red is fire
Earth's capital will be between nature and air to prevent fire from trying to lead lava to nature to burn the world tree.
Air gets a corner because below their spawn will be a massive dessert
Fire will spawn on the opposite side of the map to make creation of obsidian or mass cobblestone virtually impossible.

I want to join because of organized pvp and the unique building requirements. Seems like a fun challenge.
Unless we get working sponges soon, the creation of a water dome the size of the one I did or bigger will be impossible/take forever. I know it isnt designed to be easy, but I spent a good hour or so working on that first underwater dome and it's tiny compared to what the capital will probably be. I reckon we need proper sponges.
