If you're in 1.5.2, make a monument out of Octuple Compressed Cobblestone using Extra Utilities.

Yeah, the issue with a server is space. I didn't realize how much land you need until I made it to Stone the first time. I marked out what I thought would be a small area for my next expansion. It ended up being over 250 blocks wide once I measured. The final capitol city for most people will...

http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/challenge-refugee-to-regent-kingdom-building-challenge.18310/ It's really fun, and it keeps you incredibly busy for a long time as you figure out the best way to fit your buildings together and to overcome the restrictions within each age.

Only if it gave a speed boost. Shakes made from plants are super-good for you, or so I've heard.

KingLemming should make magma crucibles turn hay into liquid when 1.6 hits. By then, Xycraft should be out, and I will fill a max size xy tank with liquid hay and measure its effect on performance. That will end this discussion once and for all. Thank you.

Very nice. The wood house looks very spacious. I'm in kind of a holding pattern on my kingdom while I wait for a certain opportunity...

Don't forget your population requirements. Your best bet is to just double Iron's population and upgrade your Outliers accordingly. Start a minecart transit system if you haven't already. Bonus points for a subway.

Direwolf SuperChallenge: Your first three diamonds must be used for a Diamond Drill, or equivalent if not using IC2. ETA: GregTech Variant: Throw your first three diamonds into the nearest lava source, because GregTech.

Maul's previous statement concerning TConstruct is that you can use one level up for tier. For instance, Wood Settlement can use wood and paper tools because they have mining level 0: Stone. Stone Hamlet can use everything mining level 1: Iron, and so on. So, the Iron Village would be mining...

I'm using treecapitator to make getting wood a little easier. You can destroy full axe on one jungle tree and still not get all of it, so I don't it's overpowered. It's a quality of life issue given the sheer amount of wood you need for every single stage.

With regards to Outliers, every Outlier should have at least a wooden palisade until it reaches a population threshold. At each threshold, the wall has to be upgraded in one way or another, through material or tech/magic. By Iron level population, the Outliers has to have at least one dispenser...

I never worry about worldgen mods anymore. Thank you, Mystcraft!

Yeah, it can take hours to get every ID sorted into the correct forestry backpack configs. Plus, you go in and configure a mod and find it completely broke another mod. I find item ID conflicts are worse than block IDs. Sure, block IDs can crash the game, but item conflicts can end with smelting...

I think you have all realized that I am building my town with an eye toward the future of my city. With that in mind, my plans for the wall surrounding my village will involve just under 199 stacks of cobblestone. 12,720 blocks to be exact. Maybe less if I cut corners this stage, but every block...

It's amazing how excited I just got over being able to use a furnace...this challenge is really messing with my head.

Pistons are unlocked in the Iron Village. Considering a redstone engine is just a piston with a piece of glass and some extra bits of wood stuck on it, I would say that it's probably well within the spirit of the challenge.

Ok, I don't video software, so you all have to deal with images for now. I can't possibly document the inside of every building and every chest inside of every building, so please take my word that everything is within the rules of the challenge. This post will deal with my Woodcutter's House...

You know, I've never used item frames. I'll look into it. I was planning on using Tool Racks from Bibliocraft to display my tools instead of shoving them in a chest. I'm probably going to end up making 4-5 refugee shacks for the Wood Settlement. Woodcutter, Farmer, Rancher, and two Guards. I...

Double post again, but that quote was huge, and this post is going to be huge too. I realized that my farm pics weren't very detailed, and I'm really proud of it, so here goes. Ok, irrigation. The water comes from a single source block from the reservoir. Water flows for 7 blocks before...

Don't forget the Arcane Empowerment Table, otherwise you won't be able to use Spellbooks or Spells in the Iron Village.
