    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    Thanks YX33A. Last time I played AM2, or AM1 whichever it was the nexus was something like EE2 which [EE2] IMHO was horribly OP for anything but EE2 play. That's where the balance breaking note in the Redstone Discovery Stage (now gone) was from. From 6+ months ago. I did a really quick check...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    I agree. I just don't have as much internet time as I want. My laptop was diagnosed today as having a completely fucked up hard drive. so.....it's being sent into HP. If they don't want to fix it, I'm going to have to learn to use Ubuntu, and run Linux off a flash drive. That would be...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    Yeah, you guys have a point. I just don't have access to the internet like I did. That said (yeah, I know it's like my most commonly used phrase lol), I am currently working on the Redstone Discovery stage, currently working on the Player Estates in Normal. I'm not going to entirely ignore the...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    So I have an idea of what I want to do next, which is revamp the start of the challenge, incorporating the various races. This would be a sub-challenge, so completely optional, but would hopefully help everyone come up with a fun building code/culture. Basically I want to be able to have a...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    Apologies for being absent for the last month. Went to stay with my parents over Christmas break, and their internet sucks. They literally pay by the bandwidth, from a cell phone company--and it shuts down between 11PM and 5 AM. Yes. it was worse than it sounds. I think I went through Netflix...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    Actually, Portal/Grav guns have always been locked until Iron Village. I just went back and checked to make sure, and yes, that's how I had this. It's a little confusing, I'll admit "until you learn the secrets of metals" isn't very clear. There is one exception to the "use what you find in...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    Also a few rule changes. From the Wooden Settlement forward, you can now use any weapons, tools, or armor from chests (Dungeons/villages/etc) that you find. This includes iron+ tools/weapons/armor. You may not craft their replacements, but feel free to use them. The exceptions to this would be...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    So I've come to realize that I've really neglected sea/river/etc-faring content. Mainly in the Agricultural and Transportation sections, with one or two Fortification additions. To that end, for the next little bit my focus for writing new stuff for this challenge will be largely maritime. These...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    So I've played a lot of Starbound--I think it's close to 150 hours (161), and I'm back to the Challenge. http://refugeetoregentchallenge.wikispaces.com/Wood Settlement Wood Settlement's updating is complete, and even has a table of contents with easy search terms. I'm working on Points now...

    Starbound is quite awesome. I'm quite tempted to write up a quick version of the Challenge for Starbound. :P And abculatter, feel free.

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    The Merdorfs: The Merdorf people are a proud, strong people. Sadly, the last of the pure-blood Merfolk were wiped out in the Great Ending. the Merdorf come from a handful of Sober Dwarves and Merfolk that intermarried. The resultant mixture were cast out from both of their respective cultures...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    I've been inspired by a few sources, mainly the #RRLite boys, but also the Fantasy city Build Challenge. The problem I had with both of these sources is that they're drawing on tired, Tolkien-esque tropes that start with the decidedly tired (to me) Humans are the default by which all others are...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    Trunks, I'll change my Forge IRC to #RRLite :D Out of curiousity, are you all planning to build the same city, or will you be making multiple cities? I think I might add the dimensions back in in a few cases, but not for every single room. :p The Dirt Hovel is a special case, and will keep...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    There wasn't much when I wrote it. I'm going back and rewriting Wood Settlement now. For now, just make sure that you have enough room/tables for all of your population. I'm amazed at how little detail there was when I first wrote that. Building requirements are being shuffled to be more in...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    So I've been away from Minecraft for a while, and there aren't any official FTB mod packs, and I REALLY don't feel like going through the headache of configs AGAIN......so for the near future, I'm going to be playing the Resonant Rise pack, since that looks AWESOME, and will be relearning the...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    Disclaimer: These are VERY VERY VERY ROUGH Outlines of the future! The *Actual* Stages once I get to them will be far more detailed. http://refugeetoregentchallenge.wikispaces.com/Glowstone Expansion Let the Nether Colonization begin! Yeah, it's a very rough outline, but still. General rule...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    Just want to say thanks for the support, guys. I've been away from Minecraft for a while, and I'm trying to catch up with both the vanilla changes and what I'm sure is a ton of mod changes. :D Based on the recent posts I'm going to try to get a rough outline going for the rest of the stages...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    Like I said before, I've never really touched Gregtech, and it's something I'd want to play around with myself for a while before I add it in. So at this point---maybe. I'm pretty busy atm, but I MIGHT do it. Right now I'm going to try to focus on my own progression of tech/magic. I really...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    Yeah, sorry. I'm working on it. Although the Pokemon/GTAV launches, not to mention school and IRL drama have totally distracted me.
