    Welcome everyone,

    This is a public statement from the Government, in preparation of the erection of London, the future capitol of the British Empire.

    The Digging of the river Thames, which the City of London will rely upon for access to the occean, Has already begun and i hereby welcome anyone who would like to give a helping hand. As for British Citizens, you are advised to help in the work, when there are not any other pressing matters to deal with. TNT is needed along with gunpowder, as we will use cannons for most of the blasting. There will also be need of pickaxe workers that will clean up after the cannons and level out. Bear in mind, this is supposed to look like a natural river and therefore bottom and banks of the river does not need to be square and blocky, the more natural look is ideal.

    We do have a plan to follow and it is shown in the picture below.

    Also take note, there is also placed a border in game, marked by stone brick and cobble to line the banks of the river, so if in doubt where to blast, look to those, they are not hard to spot.

    We will blast everything within the black marked lines of the picture as shown, dept is not decided. There are several lakes in our way of blasting, so they will need to be filled with dirt. We have dirt at our disposal in the storage room, so for BE members, this dirt is free to use for filling the lakes within these black marked lines. Help hand dirt out to anyone who wants to help fill.

    DO NOT BLAST ON A LAKE! This will only slow our work down, because we cannot blast into water. We need to fill them as soon as possible so there will not be water everywhere.

    When the blasting is done we will ask admins to fill in the river with water and hope for approval.

     

    Thats all for now; to British citizens, please help out where you can; to everyone else, if you want to give a helping hand then you are welcome 🙂

    As a quick reminder, you can buy TNT and gunpowder at the cannons shop at warp cove. Once you have the hole admins can fill it, it’s the one terrain action we perform as dealing with large quantities of water in minecraft is a pain in the ass. But you have to dig it out and make it look good first!

    It needs to be able to support our largest ships and submarines, so at least 15 blocks deep.

    Can someone please get rid of that globe theatre?! We told harry_mason2 to move it but he said that he didn’t care and was going to keep building London anyways.

    Well, we were wondering if admins could do that too. However, if we move the theatre, make sure we keep the original, as a reference. Btw, should we keep the palace where it is? I think so, and gathering from my conversations with other members, so do they. Better to have a few builds in the works, than none at all. At it’s present position, it looms over the city; makes it look all the better!

    The location of the palace is good. It is up high so there will be alot of work with terraforming, but it is not in the way of anything else and since it is already under construction, I say its fine as it is.

    There is a problem about the globe theatre though.. it needs to go, or be moved somewhere else. It would save alot of trouble if admins could help move it to the planned location, otherwise we will just have to tear it down, it is in the river so it must move, we cannot move that river.

    I’ll save the schematics of it so we can rebuild it perfectly later.

    @Sky_walker_99 said he wanted to own the pub. I’m not sure if he’ll still be up to the task, but that’s a pretty good name.
