Send me a hearth secret in the vicinty, or the account and character name of a character camped in the vicinty, and I will come over and, in short, nuke the place from orbit if a ram cannot be successfully placed.

Anyone who PM:ed me before will need to do so again, because I'm too lazy to go through my old PMs.

That is all.

Also, Mentories of other characters can now be plundered, and there are some new curios.


This.
So what you've suggested is completely legal, since it is not a hearthvault.

if this is travel hub, then it will need some barrels with wine, to restore weariness. And there sould be no houses on it's territory - or you won't be able to guarantee that noone will use it as herth valut at least for a short time. If there will be no houses, then it's useless as herthvalut - any HFs left on sight would be summonable. So I assume this type of vault should be legal as long as there are no houses/mines/etc. - structures that can hide HF inside.

No, they should not be legal. Everything should be at least rammable even a travel hub. Especially a travel hub. Who is to say that it isn't vital for me to destroy my enemies travel hub to win the war?

If u make it big enough u can openly put HF and no one can see it. So it should be illegal.

It is illegal I've asked before, if you can't get in, and you banner every side you WILL be nuked. I've found a few ways around this that are legal, but this way ,is totes illegal.

| = wall
B = Banner
CR = Crossroad

Fully statue/banner your town except for this structure. Extend as far as your Auth can hold/your boredom can sustain. They CAN get in, but this will make your town harder to penetrate than your average vault. Banners prevent walling their ram off, CR's force them to build the ram further out. To my knowledge CR's can only be destroyed by ram, not by hand. If this is untrue, substitute strongboxes for crossroads.

Code: Select all

|B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B
| CR  CR  CR  CR  CR  CR
|   CR  CR  CR  CR  CR  CR
|B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B

My idea is island vault with ram space filled up with strongboxes. They are technically breakable by hand (not that anyone has that str right now) so it should be legal.
