Well.. Not all 76 are goons, first of all. Secondly, not sure if the goons are even going to raid Bottleneck anymore, since Laketowner's killed off JTG. They're probably going to be taking the heat off of everyone else. Thirdly, if anyone needs refuge, talk to me. I'll hide you in my cellar  .

[Poltifar]

Well i dont need refuge... but i need a place to keep good stuff i might make (steel, silk, etc...)

Do we have a good vault yet?

And how good are twig fences? Anything else is impossible for me to contemplate making for now

I just tried the game back again yesterday. Of course I end up at the start of the night, so I put light fires around the Ring of Brodgar so I can see properly. Some guy was happy to see me light the ring and gave a backpack, yay. Afterwards, I saw a band of goons set oof for someplace north-east. Then, I fished in a pond and teached a new guy how to play. Fun times.

And now I have a backpack full of fish to trade. Is Bottleneck still in the same area?

[Poltifar]

And now i just played again myself. Meh, it feels so... futile... to make anything. I know that no matter how good i get, no matter how many riches i amass, some random goon that is good at grinding will just come and smash everything and take my stuff. I just dont feel like playing anymore. I even lost my pickaxe and most of my wrought iron It just aint worth it.

I didn't have to clear-cut a forest, because I'm MAKING one, and the wood I had was just a by-product.

Get yourself behind a palisade (or a brick wall) and you'll be fine. I'm pretty sure there's quite a few people willing to either take neighbors on inside their little burrows or help make a better wall with you, so you're not fully responsible making the entire wall yourself.

[DJ]

There's room in my palisade.

 Somebody should take one of the map dumps and note where everybodies houses are.

[Malicus]

No.  Even though mine is bloody obvious given all I've said...  security through obscurity actually helps here.

[Duke 2.0]

 Fine then. If DJ is on, I might want a chest in your protection for anything important.

Meh, i made a twig wall for now, although with a pickaxe it takes less that 10 seconds to break. I'll see if i can make (or get help to make) a pallisade later, once i get some good stuff again.

Edit: Also, if i need a gate, can someone make me one or do i have to get the skill to make one myself?

[DJ]

You need two cornerposts with two empty tiles between them to make a gate. Just right click on one post and it'll come up.

10 seconds? Gee, I guess I don't know my own strength. They literally go down in one naked punch from me. (I'm sure that's not reassuring)

People could make you a gate and give you the key, I suppose. I do believe Locks and Bolts is required for at least brick walls, though. (I'm really unsure, but I'll be finding out shortly).

[Poltifar]

Thank you KoE for reassuring me about the strength and security of my fences.

Anyways, Malicius, can I expand a pallisade from one of the corners of your fort? I dont want to have to built a new starting post...

Also, KoE, did you try the strength of pallisades too?

[Malicus]

Why would you want to build near me?  o.O
