The Roadbuilders guild is open for business!
If you are looking for a road for your town we are the best place to go! Roads can be useful for a variety of things - they are aesthetically pleasing, make travel faster and safer at night, make it harder to get lost, etc. The guild will build any road you need, generally roads can be divided into the following three categories:
Internal: These roads are generally the fanciest and most well lit. They are meant to be built inside growing towns to divide up plots and help people get around the city. A strong internal road network helps towns stay organized and fixes urban sprawl that causes delays and makes it easy to get lost. Having a town or neighborhood based of a grid will increase the efficiency of your environment and player activity. Lighting systems linked to a strong road network will also keep mobs out of your towns. Finally, well labeled internal roads can help boost tourism and foreign economic activity, helping your town grow to become the greatest in Mirugan!
National: These roads are nicer than extremely long distance roads - they are generally medium price and are good for linking towns to farms, mines and forts. These are also great for linking multiple nearby towns, especially if they are in the same nation. Harvesting resources, fielding an army and expanding your empire has never been easier. A large road network also helps you assure your sovereignty within your sphere of influence - even if you are attempting to claim territory further than your own block protection extends!
International: There roads are cheaper per unit distance but are also generally the largest investment. Cross the entire world in a week with a massive cobblestone highway covered with inns to spend the night. Linking up to an international system can bring tons of business to your town, help you defend your empire and trade with your neighbors. Large, ocean-spanning bridges enable you to traverse vast distances overnight and your ability to wage wars, build an empire or make allies will increase exponentially.
Pricing:
There is no set pricing for roads as prices are heavily dependent on materials - consult with us for an estimate. Our current consultation deposit is 1000GN for roads 1000 blocks or more and 500GN for roads under 1000 blocks of distance. We will map several routes for you, calculate materials, give estimates for various features and provide a sample segment of roadway. Should you decide the purchase the road the consultation fee will be subtracted from the total cost of the roadway, otherwise the deposit will be kept to cover the costs of the study and planning.
Certain organizations and towns may be eligible for a reduced consultation fee if they contribute substantial community benefits in terms of non-profit services. If you think your organization may be eligible or would like to know more just contact a guild leader to discuss!
Normally we will do a 50% up front payment and 50% upon satisfactory completion of the roadway. Certain resource-intensive projects make require more upfront payment to cover materials costs. As a general rule we only accept payments in Gold currency. Community members with good standing may apply for credit, however non-monetary collateral will be required (such as diamonds, iron, rare blocks, enchanted tools etc.) they will be returned upon fulfillment of the debt.
As a general rule the cheapest roads are 1g for every 10 segments of 2*1 cobblestone. Additional features such as bridges, inns, lighting, fences etc. can increase the cost. If you are able to provide materials the price will be decreased substantially.
A construction estimate for the time it will take to build a road will also be provided. Understand that roads may take up to 4 weeks to complete depending on the scale and availability of labor. Rush jobs are doable but will cost substantially more. No guarantees are given with respect to time but we strive to stick to our estimates and satisfy our customers so as to ensure future business.
