Do you like to explore and go where no man has gone before? Would you like to have another home away from your EMC residence where you could operate freely deep in the wild? Well, say no more because the Eastern Borderlands Outpost on SMP9 has what you are looking for! We are recruiting residents to come occupy the ready made town at 73160, -7647. The surrounding area beyond the immediate outpost vicinity is completely unexplored. It's a 19 minute continuous rail trip in the nether frontier from the Frontier East portal just to get there. We realize that's a long ride so we've done our best to make it worth your while. Amenities already in place include: - 21 x 21 lots with cobble road network and lighting - Horse stables - Enchanting facility - Crafting facility - Brewing facility - Storage building - Ender chests - Smooth stone generator - Villager trading post - Zombie Spawner XP Farm - Public Mine - Animal breeding pens - Traditional tree farm - Auto tree farm - Large agricultural crop farm - Blaze farm - Full-scale iron farm We would like to recruit two people to act as the Eastern Borderlands Outpost town mayor and master-at-arms. While not full outpost members, these individuals would have access to expanded storage facilities at town hall and no building height restrictions unlike other town residents. The town rules are fairly minimal and are as follows: 1. Outpost members (Hoops_McCann, havioxs, BlackofSpartan) have seniority over all residents. 2. Town mayor is the senior resident. Mayor and master-at-arms enforce town rules. 3. Only mayor and master-at-arms may build more than 15 blocks high. 4. No mining in town except directly below your own plot. 5. No general mining or tree cutting within 100 blocks of town. 6. No general mining or tree cutting within 500 blocks of the outpost member castle at 72990, -8506. 7. Approved build blocks: cobble, stone, stone brick, oak, dark oak, birch, spruce, jungle wood, brick block, nether brick, glass, wood fence, and iron fence. 8. Unapproved structures outside of town are not permitted. Standard EMC rules and regulations also apply, of course. If this appeals to you then come on out! There is a sign at the south end of each 21 x 21 lot with a number. Claim your lot and then post your name on the list of residents adjacent to town hall. If you have any questions at all, feel free to contact me at any time either on site here or in game. We look forward to seeing everyone!
Here are some images to help orient and define the limits of the outpost for newcomers, as well as the tree and mining exclusion areas adjacent to both the member castle and town. GENERAL OUTPOST LAYOUT & BOUNDARY MEMBER CASTLE EXCLUSION ZONE RESIDENT TOWN PERIMETER & EXCLUSION ZONE
