@Glov could you respond to my iron mine query before we accept this?

edit: @Whickery_Dickens I’ll copy it in here for your benefit:

what do you think of having an iron mine

So the blue areas are mine-dumps, i.e. material from the mines
They sunk shafts in regular intervals along the lode (black line)

You could have charcoal pits around for fuel etc

Question for @Benzathoth or anyone for that matter, that has the knowledge I lack. Would it be okay to have farms at the river level? I know houses cannot go on that level because of the floods. But would they also apply that to farms? Or would they just have them at the river level?

Another question: Will there (probably yes) be a roads connecting Village 2 to other locations? If yes, where will these roads be and who will do them? Want to make sure I plan accordingly to connect my area with the rest, if it will be connected.

For the first question:

For the second question, there will be roads, but you’d have to ask Glov exactly where they’ll go.

The water meadows will be a challenge, can’t wait to give those a try.

Glov-sensei…just saw the roads on the first road #oops

Burh 2 + The adjacent village are open again.

The village and burh at the Old Ford are completely gone, what happened?

Glov just said they are available immidietly before you. He probably got rid of it.

@Glov or @Whickery_Dickens

hello,
Do you two have something in mind for homestead 5? Or you looking for a builder to develop a concept for why there is a homestead there?

thanks

Nat: The second picture you’ve listed looks great and I’d really like to see it in the vale, although are you planning to have a small garden with veggies and stuff to supply the family with food or are you relying on the local farms and the fish from the lake?

Chev: Glov hasn’t listed a concept idea for it in the overview map, although for style i’d suggest keeping with a current ones, (that being swiss log huts) we don’t want to have a different style for each project within the vale as it would make the whole thing look unorganized and messy. If you want to apply for it I’d suggest making a post with good reference imagery that shows us exactly what you want your build to end up like - Look at nat’s post above.

Homestead 5…,it’s way to the far right edge. You were thinking homestead 1, correct?

Yes! sorry.
I would do a thatch kind of style around that area.
