Colony! Read Immediately!

SaW has now established a Colony in Georgia! That is our first big step as a Company, and greater steps are to follow. Now, we are going to have a very specific way to build the Colony so that we do not get stuck at a certain level. So at this point, no one is allowed to Build anything, you are only allowed to Invest.

As time moves on I will form a Colony Council, and those members will be allowed to continue the Build following the plan we will set forth.

At this point, the most important thing is gathering Lumber and Ducats.

Started construction on 2 Residential (Class 1) Buildings, which will allow 100 Population!

These will be done NLT 0150 on 28 MAY 2013.

This has cost 2 Million Ducats and 80 Lumber thus far to complete them.

The goal is to place 10 Residential (Class 1) Buildings.

An additional 8 Million Ducats and 320 Lumber are Required!

Let's do our part and build this Colony!

After Residential Level 1's are Completed, we will move to Production Buildings.

I will be leading the construction of the colony. all members are welcome and encouraged to help with the colony. this can be done 2 ways:

1) you can donate in game money and trade goods (lumber only for now).

2) you can sail out to the colony with me and select and build a building using your own resources. if you come with me please refer to the forum post "UWO Americas" for requirements to make the sail across.

we will be building specific buildings so when you want to build a building we will give you a list of approved buildings to pick from. we will then post on the forum here what buildings are set and approved to be invested into. if you go to the colony and fined a building there that is not on the approved list do not invest capital into it. once a building is on the approved list you are more than welcome to go out and invest capital in the building without my needing to be there. if you do invest capital into a building, send me a message on the forums or mail in game. do not send me a tell i will be saving the mail or message to keep record of who has contributed what.

there are many benefits to having a company colony. think of it as an major city that you can grow from the ground up. the shops there can produce items that you can only find in ports well out of easy reach. as well as multiple trade goods for crafting that you would normally have to sail to multiple ports to get.

i do want there to be incentive to the members for contributing. when we hit bench marks (decided by BradleyKell, Ruv, and myself ) in the development of the colony there will be prizes for the member that contributed the most. the prizes can include NC items (real cash items). do not break your bank trying to get the prizes please. you do not have to donate the full cost of a building, any amount will help.

We have finished production on 2 Resident Type C, R1 Houses.

We are currently constructing 4 Resident Type C, R1 Houses.

This has taken 6M Ducats and 240 Lumber so far.

We still need 4 more Resident Type C, R1 Houses for Phase One.

Phase Two will be Production Buildings!

A residential building shouldn't be out of my reach for too much longer.

Built 1 more residence. We are at 7 now.

so good news we have built all 10 residential houses. now we have to wait till our population reaches 100 to be able to build more. the next two buildings we will be placing at 100 population is the farm and the food market. we will not be placing anymore building after this till we have a 500 population.

Food Market:
Ingredients- 70 lumber 30 stone
cost- D 1,000,000
Capital invest- 4,000,000

Farm:
Ingredients- 80 lumber
cost- D 1,000,000
Capital invest- 4,000,000

each building will take 25 hours to finish. once we get to 500 population we will inform you as to the next buildings we will be looking at placing. thank you for your continued help.

So far, the rate of Colony Building has been astounding. Truely great work by all involved!

ok good news we have a farm and food market. now we wait. once we get to 400 population we will put up a ship yard as the next building.
Shipyard:
100 Lumber
60 Stone
20 Spare Sails
800,000 D Construction
7,200,000 Cap Invest

your continued support and donation are appreciated.

the construction of the ship yard is under way. at this point we will be building a wears market, a planted forest, and a mine.the wears market is to be placed to the left of the food market, and the planted forest and mine are to be placed in the top left corner.

Wears Market:
Ingredients- 70 lumber 30 stone
cost- D 1,000,000
Capital invest- 4,000,000

Planted forest:
Ingredients- 80 lumber
cost- D 1,000,000
Capital invest- 4,000,000

Mine:
Ingredients- 80 lumber
cost- D 1,000,000
Capital invest- 4,000,000

Thanks for all the hard work, guys. I'm really excited to get up there in the levels, get over to the colony and contribute. It's nice to have a goal to attain to and a project to contribute to, and I hope I'll have a chance to do so soon!

I've built a bank, a wares market, and a residential 2 (a).

so at this time we are on a building freeze on the colony. i will be posting up the final design on the colony tomorrow. until that is up i do not want any buildings put up. ty and i will let you know what order we need to place buildings in.

I just built a tavern and the 15th residential 2 A.

so this is the final idea of how the colony will look. at this time we have nto picked a market type so that and the production facilities are unnamed. if there is no arrow on the building it is because the direction does not matter. also if the building is numbered that will be the order we build them in. we are still on a freeze for building. i will let you know when it is ok to build and what we are building.

Love the left. I am uninspired with the Right. :p

Also. I am still out at the colony. Can't play until tomorrow and have no supplies but would be able to build something if someone can bring me the materials (and if we have decided.what to build by then). No worries if not though I can just sail back.
