Ashfall has been sleepy. A new map system has been planned for the community with a couple of twists. To be released soon. If you vote for being okay with a map switch (your character characteristics and faith will move over) then the new map becomes the main map (basically a wipe). If not all players vote for the switch it will become a cluster. (new map you can travel to)

1 Central PVP Region - With all Ores and Trees

The Melting Pot. While the deities are in constant fight for this domain, and balance resides - for the moment - nature gets to grow. The soil as the rock is rich and filled with power. All kinds of plants can grow in this area while all kinds of Ore can be found underground. The magically enriched rock even spouts forth Moon Metals like adamantium and glimmersteel. You will need to contest this area for your Kingdom. You will need to tower chain into it and it is always free for all. Taste your success. While you can.

Ressources can be gained in 3 ways:

Visit the other continent region and mine it in a non enforced region (or don't and face the guards)
Trade with the other region
Use the alchemy system and craft metal essences to generate liquids that can spawn/convert veins (a lengthy but rewarding process)

Kingdoms: You start in your Capital: you can build and enlarge your Capital or you can build Guard Towers and make your kingdom larger! Tower Chaining required to enlarge the Kingdom. Your kingdom choice does not affect which religions you can choose later!
Global Chat system so players in different Kingdoms can still chat with each other
Players from different kingdoms might be outlined in red but thats just wurms system. You can still trade and interact with these players. You can even fight together by teaming up prior the fight. Anything else can be modded in since yours truly has learned the arts now. (still takes a little while because single admin life is hard, so have mercy (and a bit patience <3).
RP in local and village chats
You can Protect your property and mining claims by placing guard towers on site!
Slightly lower deeding cost than before to make long term settling possible (for players that tend to go on hiatus)
