Stone Hamlet Classic

Title: Elder Previous Stage: Wood Settlement The Settlement is growing larger, and the refugees are recovering quickly under a steady diet and fresh water. You are the leader of your small Hamlet, even if you are one of several Elders that meet regularly to guide the course of the community. You have been studying the Cobblestone you have collected during your mining efforts, and have determined ways to improve the lives of everyone. Stronger than wood, it can be used to reinforce existing houses, build stronger tools, and even build a few things you would never have dared with mere wood. But all is not well. The word is out about your small community. In the vast wilderness, you have security, you have a steady food supply, and, most importantly, you are willing to take people in. You know that soon more and more people will come to you looking for shelter, and your current stocks of food won't cut it for long. You'll need to expand your farming efforts, maybe even assign one or two members of the community to the job. Worse, the mobs still roam your streets at night. It is time to fortify your small community, and build a wall to keep them out. And what of the metal ores that you have found underground? Iron, Copper, Tin.....they could be useful, you know. But you lack the facilities and castings necessary to shape them into useful shapes. Still, you feel confident that your new Stone tools are sufficient to pull most of the ore out of the ground. You also think that you can use some of the Quartz you have discovered to grind the raw ores into dusts, and get more pure metal. You and your smartest advisors are considering the best ways to take advantage of these metals, once you have recovered enough of them. Stage 3 Rules: Valid Materials Rule of Cool still applies You may use any Stone, Wood, Dirt (Clay, Dirt, Quicksand, etc) that you can harvest with the tools available to you. You may use up to Stone tools, and tools that have the same mining strength as Stone tools. TiC Mining Level 1: Iron page 207 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge Metals may not be used yet Tools, Armor, etc found in chests may be used Portal Guns/Gravity Guns may not be used Tools/Armor/etc found in chests that are above Stone strength that are nearly destroyed may not be repaired or replaced General Rules Population is calculated by number of unique Dwellings (Refugee Shack/Refugee Refuge, Hamlet Hut/Hamlet House, Player Dwelling[s]) You must wear a Helmet if you go Underground You may harvest any ores that you find You may NOT use metals all, yet, unless it is an Advancement Requirement You MAY smelt any ores you want into ingots/blocks. You may not delve below Y Level 30. If you find yourself at Y 29 or below, immediately get above Y 30 The sole exception is an exposed Ravine that goes below Y 30. In this case, you may travel to the bottom of the Ravine, and harvest whatever you like, but you may not enter any cave systems that begin once the top of the Ravine is covered. Generally all Stone recipes that are non-tech related may be used. If you find an Abandoned Mineshaft, feel free to grab the tracks and/or minecarts and use them yourself. Coke Ovens are unlocked for all difficulty levels All Wooden Rails may be used except for Wooden Booster Rail The following are the only carts you may use this Stage (but only if you find them in a dungeon, chest, or Abandoned Mineshaft) Railcraft Work Cart (Cart with a Crafting Bench) Vanilla Minecart Furnace Cart Chest Cart Stone Hamlet Shakespeare Rules: This list is just for fun, feel free to ignore it For this Stage only, your Hamlet is located in Denmark For this Stage only, you are the Prince of Denmark The other Elders advising the Hamlet are Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, but poor Yorick met his end just recently Alas, I knew him well At the end of this stage, everyone dies Fast Track Advancement Rules: page 208 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge Item Requirements Tool Requirements: Tools may be built out of up to Stone materials.

As a general rule of Thumb, each Farmer is capable of tending anywhere from 25-75 Blocks of crops before another Farm House is required. Each block of crops is considered one food source Once there are enough Farmers, Farmers are encouraged to specialize their crops. "Farm House" Building Materials are equal to the Dwellings of the current Stage. Must be sealed by Doors Hostile Mobs may not spawn inside. Farm Houses should not be built near the Residential area. Farm Houses should be built as close to their crops as possible.

As a general rule of Thumb, each Rancher is capable of tending to 15-30 Livestock, 1.5x that if the Livestock are Chickens. Livestock are animals that produce edible or useful products. In Vanilla these are Cows, Mooshrooms, Pigs, Chickens, and Sheep, though depending on your mods, there may be many more. Each animal that produces an edible product is considered one food source. Once there are enough Ranchers, Ranchers are encouraged to specialized their Livestock. In the case of Sheep Ranchers, Ranchers are eventually encouraged to specialize their color of Sheep. "Ranch House" Building Materials are equal to the Dwellings of the current Stage. Must be sealed by Doors Hostile Mobs may not spawn inside. Ranchhouses should not be built near the Residential area.

For Agriculturally-based Hamlets, see the bottom-most section for Building Requirements. Hamlets that are not Agriculturally-based may ignore these Requirements if desired. You must have enough food to feed your entire population.You may choose any combination of food sources (Farming, Ranching, Fishing, etc) to get your population fed. However, you may not advance to the next stage until your entire population is fed. Most livestock count as 1 food unit, and nearly all plants/fruit-bearing trees count as 1 food unit. The exceptions are: Mooshrooms count as 2 food units (Mushroom Stew/Beef) Natura Berries count as a full food unit only when they are fully grown (3x tall) Before then, each "stack" of berries only counts as half a food unit If planted by a player, Natura berries do not grow wildly out of control Only wild Natura berries grow and grow and grow seemingly without end (albeit slowly) page 219 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge Farming You must have at least 10 Potato plants planted You must have at least 10 Carrot plants planted Plantations Fishermen and "Fishing Huts" Fishing Huts are not counted in the Residential section, mainly because they are built to help support the population, not add to the general population on their own. Fishermen are rather unlike most of the other Agricultural food providers, because you don't necessarily need to build them much. You don't need to tend their crops, you don't need to breed their livestock. However, they can only live directly next to the water. There are two main kinds of Fishermen--the kind that fish from shore, run fishing lines, etc, and the kind that goes out in boats and fishes in the water. Fishermen that fish from shore generally fish along rivers. Fishermen that go out in boats and fish generally live next to an ocean and/or giant lake. One Fisherman can usually provide 15-30 food. Unlike other Agricultural types, however, you can't simply crowd Fishermen in together and have them all concentrated in one place. That would lead to overfishing and killing off all the fish in that area. Fishermen must have a fishing area of their own of at least 25-50 blocks. No more than 2-3 fishermen may fish in the same area. Fishing Huts Building Materials are the same as the Dwellings of the current Stage. Must be sealed by Doors Hostile Mobs may not spawn inside. Fishing Huts should not be built near the Residential area. Fishing Huts should be built as close to their fishing areas as possible. It is recommended to keep Fishing Huts on the edges of your towns so there is more space for building Room Requirements for Fishing Huts ignore the "X extra rooms to taste" requirements of any/all stages There are some additional rooms required for Fishing Huts Additional Requirements: Fishing Huts ignore the "X extra rooms to taste" requirements of any/all Stages Rule of Cool applies Fish Cleaning/Fish Smoking Room Must have a Crafting Table. page 220 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge Must have a double chest for storing fish Must have Furnace/Frying Pan to smoke fish I know it's not how it works in reality, but work with me here. Fishing Dock/Fishing Raft A fisherman must have a place to fish from. Multiple Fisherman (up to the maximum provided by the difficulty) may fish from the same Dock or Raft If a Fisherman lives on a Houseboat that he then fishes from, he does not need a Dock/Raft. His Houseboat is his raft. Fishing Dock A Fishing Dock is simply a place where a Fisherman goes to fish. It must extend out into/above the water. The Fishing Dock must have 2-3 Blocks for each Fishermman that is using it. i.e. One Fisherman is using a single dock. The Dock only needs to extend 2-3 blocks into the river, or run parallel to shore for 2-3 blocks. Another Fisherman sets up shop and decides to use the same Dock. The Dock will need to be extended 2-3 blocks in any direction over the river/water. Fishing Raft Fishing Rafts are a place where Fishermen can go and fish. They are generally a good ways out into a lake/ocean. Fishing Rafts must have a base of at least 3x3 per Fisherman that uses the Fishing Raft. Fishing Rafts should have a Bed and at least a Chest per Fisherman that uses the Fishing Raft. Sometimes you are having a good run of luck, or for whatever reason you can't make it back to shore. Best to be prepared. Each Fisherman's Chest must contain at least 1 Boat in case of emergencies and/or crashing into the Raft and breaking their boat Fishing Rafts must have a Boat landing area. The Boat Landing Area must be coated in Wool, so boats don't break when they bump into the Raft. Fisherman's Houseboat Houseboats are far more than just a place for a Fisherman to fish from, though that happens here too. Houseboats are for the dedicated Fisherman who loves the open water, or anyone who wants to get away from the shore. This entry is specifically for Fishermen. Houseboats for the general population can (soon) be found in the Dwellings page. Generally, one Fisherman lives on each Houseboat. Standard rules to prevent overfishing apply to Fisherman's Houseboats. Houseboats must be made of at least Wooden materials, up to the current material level of the Capital. Dirt may be used to build a Houseboat, but it may NOT be used for the bottom of the Houseboat page 221 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge If desired, these requirements may be used instead for an "Ice House", which would have a similar functionality, except there would have to be a hole through the floor and the ice so the fisherman can fish from a warm shelter on top of the ice. Room Requirements All Rooms but the Bedroom and the Porch/Deck may be combined into a single room if desired. If all rooms are combined into a single room, size requirements are 75% (3/4) of the individual rooms. If the rooms are combined into a single room, the functionality of each room MUST be maintained, and any items/blocks that are required for one room may not count towards the requirements of another room combined into the same room. Must have a Bedroom Must have a Bed Must have Double Chest Must have a Kitchen Must have Frying Pan or Furnace to cook food Must have Chest to store food Must have a Work Room/Fish Cleaning Room/Smoking Room Must have Crafting Table and/OR Must have Frying Pan/Furnace for smoking fish. Must have Chest to store equipment Fishermen must have at least a Fishing Rod Must have at least 2 Boats (Vanilla or equivalent) in case of emergency May have a Porch/Deck Though not required, the Porch is an area easily accessible from the rest of the Houseboat that is open to the air. It's a place where someone could go out and enjoy the sun on the water. Room dimensions, etc are up to you This is here simply to serve as inspiration Must have Boat Landing Area The Boat Landing Area must be coated in Wool, so boats don't break when they bump into the Raft. May have additional Rooms to taste Numbers/contents of additional rooms are up to you. This is the bare minimum for a Fisherman's Houseboat small Livestock area, small garden, small Orchard......there is no limit to what you could add to a Houseboat Ranching Expand your Livestock as needed by population You must have at least 2 of each kind of Livestock You must have at least 4 different colors of Sheep Build additional Ranch Houses as needed Kennel Masters and "Kennels" page 222 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge Kennel Masters are not terribly important in the grand scheme of things, but they are important for one very important thing. The Breeding, training, and care of animals kept in your Kennels. Without Kennel Masters, you would have no war dogs. Without Kennel Masters, you would have no dogs at all, except what you manage to tame yourself. Being a busy person, you wouldn't have the time to give the dog or cat to really train them the way that they should be trained. For the Kennel Master, his animals are the only thing in his life. By default, he only cares for Dogs and Cats. However, if you have a mod that includes more animals that can be tamed like dogs and cats that have no value as Livestock and cannot be ridden, the Kennel Master will take care of them too. Kennel Masters can take care of up to 20 animals at any one time. Nobles, your army, yourself, and others all come to Kennel Masters for pets. "Kennels" Building Materials are equal to the Dwellings of the current Stage. Must be sealed by Doors Hostile Mobs may not spawn inside. Kennels should not be built near the Residential area. Kennels should be built as close to their Animal Kennels as possible. It is recommended to keep Kennels on the edges of your towns so there is more space for building Room Requirements are equal to the Dwellings of the current Stage, with slight additions Room Requirements Animal Kennels Each animal in a Kennel Master's charge needs at least a 2x3x2 area to be kept in. There must be an area for the animals to run around in and get some exercise. Exercise area should be 2x2 per animal using the exercise area There doesn't need to be one massive exercise area, there can be multiple, smaller exercise areas. Apiculture and Bee Keepers By now you almost certainly have come across a few bee hives. You may have even collected more than a few bees yourself. At present there aren't a whole lot of rewards for keeping bees, but you have most certainly heard of some of the fantastic bee breeds out there that produce truly outlandish products. However, Bee Keepers do tend to deal in, well, Bees. So Bee Keepers are generally not welcome in Residential or Commercial areas. They tend to be on the edges of town, where the townspeople won't be too bothered by the Bees. One Bee Keeper can give adequate care for 10-20 Bees. page 223 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge Bee Keeper's Dwelling A Bee Keeper's Dwelling is exactly the same as the current Stage's main type of Dwelling (Settlement Shack, Village Villa, Hamlet Hut, etc), with only a few modifications Bee Work Room Bee Keepers need an additional room to deal with Bee products and process them. Whether it's merely storage, or actual processing, this room needs to be indoors and/or underground to prevent bees from finding their way back to all of their products. Must have a Crafting Bench Must have at least a Double Chest for storage Must have at least 1 Apiarist's Chest (or better) Must have Bee Processing machine(s) when Stage-applicable Should have the Following Tools if Stage-Appropriate: Scoop (Dirt Hovel and up) Beealyzer (Redstone Discovery and up) or better Apiarist's Clothes (Redstone Discovery and up) Bee Meadow The specifics of the Bee Meadow requirements will be heavily dependent on the Bee breed. However, there should be at least a 1 block area for the Bees to fly around. Must have at least 1 of the Bee Requirements (Grass, Stone, Lillypad, etc) must be present for each set of Bees. Must have at least 1 of the following (Depending on Stage, preference, etc) Bee House (Stone Hamlet Stage and up) Apiary (Redstone Discovery and up) May be used if traded for from a Testificate Villager. Replacements/Original Apiaries may not be built until Redstone Dsicovery. Alveary (Glowstone Expansion and up) Arboriculture Expand Orchards if Necessary If you are Tree Breeding, discover at least 5 new Breeds by end of Stage.

Wax Craftery Arboriculture Grow at least 2 Orchards May be of any type Sawmill/Fruit Stand page 225 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge What kind depends on what kinds of Ochards you have. If lumber Orchards, build a Sawmill Must have some kind of device (functional or not) to split wood. Must be able to hold at least 100 Blocks of wood, of 4-10 different types If Fruit Orchards, set up a Fruit Stand (and an additional Orchard Master's house to run it) Stables Build at least 1 Stable filled to Capacity Capacity above and beyond any needs in the rest of the Hamlet Race Track Kennels Build at least 2 Kennels filled to Capacity Must have both Cats and Dogs Needs of Military and Nobility must be fulfilled Bonus Building: Pet Store There must be at least 2 extra Dogs, 2 extra Ca Fishermen At least 10 Fishermen must move to your Hamlet Fish Cleaner/Canner House Requirements are exactly the same as a Fisherman, Except: Room dedicated to Cleaning Fish Post-Redstone, Fish Canner(ies) may replace Fish Cleaners, if desired. Must have at least 1 kind of fish mounted on a wall How it is mounted is up to you. Plantations Build at least 3 full-size Plantations Expand your Ranch Expand your Enclosure from the Wooden Settlement Whatever kind of Livestock you had before, you should have at least 6 of them now. Livestock is considered to be Cows, Sheep, Chickens, and Pigs.

Pick one (or more) of the following options, depending on how big your water way is. Build a Ship out in the water Should be a decently sized ship. I recommend a flat bottom in case you decide to install an inchworm drive on it one day. Build docks for shipping Combine with a Ship alongside for some fun! Build a Boat launching area Line the launching area with wool so they don't break when they hit shore. Aviation page 228 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge Hot Air Balloons The Sky is the limit!

Designate an area as an Airfield This area will be expanded as the Stage goes on, and will need room for Zeppelin/Airship docking/landing room, and more. Leave plenty of room to expand Fortification Walls and Defenses Walls should surround most of your city Agricultural areas do not need to be Walled off Build 2 Watchtowers for Defense All Watchtowers will need a Watchman to man it. The Watchman will need a Dwelling to live in Militia/Army Your Militia (and, later, Army), will be your Capital/Outlier's primary means of defense against hostile mobs, bandits, raiders, etc. Your Militia are housed in a Barracks, have their weapons stored in an Armory, and have a few support structures built for them. Generally, the Militia is divided into Squads of 10 soldiers. 9 Militia/Army led by a Sergeant. Leftenants keep an eye on various squads, and command up to 4 squads per Leftenant. All the Leftenants report to the Commandant, who leads the Militia/Army. Your Soldiers all bunk together in a Barracks, though squads are generally slightly separate from each other. Leftenants get rooms, though they sleep 2 to a room. Commandants get to sleep in their own (small) house. Note that this beginning force is only the Army--the land rats. Your Airship Air Force and Maritime Navy will be introduced a little later. TL:DR Commandant > All 10 Soldiers to a Squad (9 Soldiers, 1 Sergeant) 2-4 Squads/Leftenant Soldiers=Barracks, Leftenants Sleep 2/room, Commandant gets his own small house page 229 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge Leftenants, Commandant=Officers Soldiers/Sergeants=Enlisted Men Soldier Classes If certain materials are not available in a given stage, use the closest Stage-appropriate material you can get.

At least 1 Decorative Item Kitchen Must have either Frying Pan or Furnace for cooking food Must have a Crafting Bench Must have a Single Chest for food At least 1 Decorative Item 1-2 Additional Rooms to taste Agriculture Unless you have an Agricultural focus, you will have only a few specific requirements beyond simply meeting the food needs of your population and your Livestock, Rideables, and Pets (if any). You may meet the food requirements using any combination of any and/or all of the various types of Agriculture. If you do have an Agricultural Focus, you may choose to have a general Agriculture focus, or pick one section of Agriculture, and have, for example, a Farming focus, a Fishing focus, or a Plantation focus, etc. Meet Food Requirements of your Population using any combination of Agricultural types Build a Mill Intended to be used to grind up wheat and other food into flour. Does not necessarily need to be functional May be a watermill, windmill, or any other kind of mill you can think of. Build a Hamlet Hut for the Miller. Build a Granary See Farming section, below, for details Farming Farmers have only one job: plant seeds and grow as much food as possible. Farmers are Agriculturalists that grow plants for food. As a general rule of Thumb, each Farmer is capable of tending anywhere from 25-75 Blocks of crops before another Farm is needed. They spend all day out in their fields, working hard to supply others with food. "Farm House" page 237 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge Must be sealed by Doors Hostile Mobs may not spawn inside. Farm Houses should not be built near the Residential area. Farm Houses should be built as close to their crops as possible. It is recommended to keep Farmhouses on the edges of your towns so there is more space for building Room and Building Materials Requirements are equal to the Dwellings of the current Stage "Farmhand Bunkhouse" Occasionally, Farmers fall behind despite their best efforts. If this happens, they hire Farmhands. Farmhands are considered Agricultural Servants. Food and Room Requirements are identical in most respects with their Residential Servant brethren. Each Farmhand needs 4 Food, and can tend an additional 15-30 blocks for their Farm. Farmhands live communally in a bunkhouse. Bunkhouses must have a dining area with enough room for all Farmhands Bunkhouses should have a common activity area that is not devoted to sleeping Farmhands sleep in either a Barracks-style setting or very small (no more than 3x2) private rooms Farmhands should all have their rooms in the same area, somewhere out of the way but still close enough to be able to do their jobs. Common Areas must have at least 1 Furnishing per Room. Farmhand Rooms do not need any Furnishings There may only be up to 6 Farmhands maximum per farm "Granary" Farming Special Building Granaries reduce the waste and spoilage that naturally occurs on some farms. Granaries allow Farmers to be more efficient and, by extension, tend more blocks. To acquire the bonus from the Granary, its Food Storage must be filled. Granaries, in addition to providing bonuses to Farmers and Farmhands, also store food for the Farm's neighboring town/settlement/nation/empire. Granary Bonuses Farmer may tend an additional 10 Blocks Each Farmhand may tend an additional 5 Blocks 1 Granary may serve up to 3 Farms Granary Requirements Granaries must be able to store 1-3x the required amount of food for the entire Settlement/Town/City This total is cumulative across all Granaries in a given town. Unless the City is Agriculturally focused, Granaries may not store food for other towns in the nation. page 238 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge Granaries do not give their bonus unless they are at least half full. Plantations Fishing Fishing Huts are not counted in the Residential section, mainly because they are built to help support the population, not add to the general population on their own. Fishermen are rather unlike most of the other Agricultural food providers, because you don't necessarily need to build them much. You don't need to tend their crops, you don't need to breed their livestock. However, they can only live directly next to the water. There are two main kinds of Fishermen--the kind that fish from shore, run fishing lines, etc, and the kind that goes out in boats and fishes in the water. Fishermen that fish from shore generally fish along rivers. Fishermen that go out in boats and fish generally live next to an ocean and/or giant lake. One Fisherman can usually provide 15-30 food. Unlike other Agricultural types, however, you can't simply crowd Fishermen in together and have them all concentrated in one place. That would lead to overfishing and killing off all the fish in that area. Fishermen must have a fishing area of their own of at least 25-50 blocks. No more than 2-3 fishermen may fish in the same area. Fishermen Building Materials are the same as the Dwellings of the current Stage. Must be sealed by Doors Hostile Mobs may not spawn inside. Fishing Huts should not be built near the Residential area. Fishing Huts should be built as close to their fishing areas as possible. It is recommended to keep Fishing Huts on the edges of your towns so there is more space for building Room Requirements for Fishing Huts ignore the "X extra rooms to taste" requirements of any/all stages There are some additional rooms required for Fishing Huts Fish Preparation Room Must have a Crafting Table. Must have a double chest for storing fish Must have Furnace/Frying Pan to smoke fish I know it's not how it works in reality, but work with me here. Fishing Dock/Fishing Raft A fisherman must have a place to fish from. Multiple Fisherman (up to the maximum provided by the difficulty) may fish from the same Dock or Raft If a Fisherman lives on a Houseboat that he then fishes from, he does not need a Dock/Raft. His Houseboat is his raft. page 239 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge Fishing Dock A Fishing Dock is simply a place where a Fisherman goes to fish. It must extend out into/above the water. The Fishing Dock must have 2-3 Blocks for each Fishermman that is using it. i.e. One Fisherman is using a single dock. The Dock only needs to extend 2-3 blocks into the river, or run parallel to shore for 2-3 blocks. Another Fisherman sets up shop and decides to use the same Dock. The Dock will need to be extended 2-3 blocks in any direction over the river/water. Fishing Raft Fishing Rafts are a place where Fishermen can go and fish. They are generally a good ways out into a lake/ocean. Fishing Rafts must have a base of at least 3x3 per Fisherman that uses the Fishing Raft. Fishing Rafts should have a Bed and at least a Chest per Fisherman that uses the Fishing Raft. Sometimes you are having a good run of luck, or for whatever reason you can't make it back to shore. Best to be prepared. Each Fisherman's Chest must contain at least 1 Boat in case of emergencies and/or crashing into the Raft and breaking their boat Fishing Rafts must have a Boat landing area. The Boat Landing Area must be coated in Wool, so boats don't break when they bump into the Raft. Fisherman's Houseboat Houseboats are far more than just a place for a Fisherman to fish from, though that happens here too. Houseboats are for the dedicated Fisherman who loves the open water, or anyone who wants to get away from the shore. This entry is specifically for Fishermen. Houseboats for the general population can (soon) be found in the Dwellings page. Generally, one Fisherman lives on each Houseboat. Standard rules to prevent overfishing apply to Fisherman's Houseboats. Houseboats must be made of at least Wooden materials, up to the current material level of the Capital. Dirt may be used to build a Houseboat, but it may NOT be used for the bottom of the Houseboat If desired, these requirements may be used instead for an "Ice House", which would have a similar functionality, except there would have to be a hole through the floor and the ice so the fisherman can fish from a warm shelter on top of the ice. Room Requirements All Rooms but the Bedroom and the Porch/Deck may be combined into a single room if desired. If all rooms are combined into a single room, size requirements are 75% (3/4) of the individual rooms. If the rooms are combined into a single room, the functionality of each room MUST be maintained, and any items/blocks that are required for one room may not page 240 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge count towards the requirements of another room combined into the same room. Must have a Bedroom Must have a Bed Must have Double Chest Must have a Kitchen Must have Frying Pan or Furnace to cook food Must have Chest to store food Must have a Work Room/Fish Preparation Room Must have Crafting Table and/OR Must have Frying Pan/Furnace for smoking fish. Must have Chest to store equipment Fishermen must have at least a Fishing Rod Must have at least 2 Boats (Vanilla or equivalent) in case of emergency May have a Porch/Deck Though not required, the Porch is an area easily accessible from the rest of the Houseboat that is open to the air. It's a place where someone could go out and enjoy the sun on the water. Room dimensions, etc are up to you This is here simply to serve as inspiration Must have Boat Landing Area The Boat Landing Area must be coated in Wool, so boats don't break when they bump into the Raft. May have additional Rooms to taste Numbers/contents of additional rooms are up to you. This is the bare minimum for a Fisherman's Houseboat small Livestock area, small garden, small Orchard......there is no limit to what you could add to a Houseboat Ranching As a general rule of Thumb, each Rancher is capable of tending to 15-30 Livestock (20-45 if the Livestock are Chickens). Livestock are animals that produce edible or useful products. In Vanilla these are Cows, Mooshrooms, Pigs, Chickens, and Sheep, though depending on your mods, there may be many more. Each animal that produces an edible product is considered one food source. It is recommended that Ranches specialize their Livestock. Horses, Chocobos, Komodo Dragons, Elephants, etc are not considered Livestock. See Stables section for more information Cats, Dogs, and other Pets are not considered Livestock. Please see Kennels for more information on Pets. "Ranch House" page 241 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge Must be sealed by Doors Hostile Mobs may not spawn inside. Ranch Houses should not be built near the Residential area. Ranch Houses should be built as close to their crops as possible. It is recommended to keep Farmhouses on the edges of your towns so there is more space for building Room and Building Materials Requirements are equal to the Dwellings of the current Stage "Ranch hand Bunkhouse" Occasionally, Ranchers fall behind despite their best efforts. If this happens, they hire Ranch hands. Ranch hands are considered Agricultural Servants. Food and Room Requirements are identical in most respects with their Residential Servant brethren. EachRanch hand needs 4 Food, and can tend an additional 15-30 blocks for their Farm. Ranch hands live communally in a bunkhouse. Bunkhouses must have a dining area with enough room for all Ranch hands Bunkhouses should have a common activity area that is not devoted to sleeping Ranch hands sleep in either a Barracks-style setting or very small (no more than 3x2) private rooms Ranch hands should all have their rooms in the same area, somewhere out of the way but still close enough to be able to do their jobs. Common Areas must have at least 1 Furnishing per Room. Ranch hand Rooms do not need any Furnishings There may only be up to 6 Ranch hands maximum per farm "Barn" Ranching Special Building Barns are structures that are raised to help protect Livestock from adverse conditions. Livestock that have a Barn to shelter in generally grow up in better condition than those that do not. Livestock that have a Barn to shelter them produce 125% more food (round up), and because of the bettered health of his Livestock, the Rancher can take care of 5 more Livestock (10 more Chickens). Barn Bonuses Barn Bonuses are on a per-Ranch basis Additional Barns on the same Ranch do not give additional bonuses Ranchers are able to tend 5 more Livestock If the additional Livestock are Chickens, the Rancher can tend 10 more Chickens. Barns give a 125% bonus to Food Production Barn Requirements At least half of the Rancher's Livestock must fit into the Barn. Individual stalls are not necessarily required Barn bonuses are restricted to its home Ranch page 242 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge It is recommended (not required) that Livestock food be stored on an upper level For fun aesthetics, put some Hay Bales on an upper level Not a requirement Stables While not vital to any given town's economy like, say, Farming or Ranching, Stable Masters are important because they are masters of breeding, training, and raising Horses, Chocobos, and other Mountable creatures. Stables may provide Mounts to any City, Hovel, or Settlement in the same Nation/Empire Stable Building Materials are equal to the Dwellings of the current Stage. Must be sealed by Doors Hostile Mobs may not spawn inside. Stable Master's House should not be built near the Residential area. Stable Master's House should be built as close to their Stables as possible. It is recommended to keep Stable Masters and their Stables on the edges of your towns so there is more space for building Room Requirements are equal to the Dwellings of the current Stage, with slight additions Stable Master--10-25 Rideables Stable Hand--5-10 Rideables Stable--+5 Rideables, Food Requirements for Rideables reduced to 1 Breeding item per Rideable Building Specifications are identical to the Barn--see "Ranchers", above Kennels Kennel Masters and Kennels Kennel Masters are not terribly important in the grand scheme of things, but they are important for one very important thing. The Breeding, training, and care of animals kept in your Kennels. Without Kennel Masters, you would have no war dogs. Without Kennel Masters, you would have no dogs at all, except what you manage to tame yourself. Being a busy person, you wouldn't have the time to give the dog or cat to really train them the way that they should be trained. For the Kennel Master, his animals are the only thing in his life. page 243 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge By default, he only cares for Dogs and Cats. However, if you have a mod that includes more animals that can be tamed like dogs and cats that have no value as Livestock and cannot be ridden, the Kennel Master will take care of them too. Kennel Masters can take care of up to 20 animals at any one time. Nobles, your army, yourself, and others all come to Kennel Masters for pets. "Kennels" Building Materials are equal to the Dwellings of the current Stage. Must be sealed by Doors Hostile Mobs may not spawn inside. Kennels should not be built near the Residential area. Kennels should be built as close to their Animal Kennels as possible. It is recommended to keep Kennels on the edges of your towns so there is more space for building Room Requirements are equal to the Dwellings of the current Stage, with slight additions Room Requirements Animal Kennels Each animal in a Kennel Master's charge needs at least a 2x3x2 area to be kept in. There must be an area for the animals to run around in and get some exercise. Exercise area should be 2x2 per animal using the exercise area There doesn't need to be one massive exercise area, there can be multiple, smaller exercise areas. Kennel Hands+5 Pets per Hand Pet Groomer/Pet Hotel/[Pet Luxury Service]+5 Pets, Feed Costs reduced to 1 Item per Pet Apiculture you have most certainly heard of some of the fantastic bee breeds out there that produce truly outlandish products. However, Bee Keepers do tend to deal in, well, Bees. So Bee Keepers are generally not welcome in Residential or Commercial areas. They tend to be on the edges of town, where the townspeople won't be too bothered by the Bees. One Bee Keeper can give adequate care for 10-20 Bees. Bee Keeper's Dwelling A Bee Keeper's Dwelling is exactly the same as the current Stage's main type of Dwelling (Settlement Shack, Village Villa, Hamlet Hut, etc), with only a few modifications page 244 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge Bee Work Room Bee Keepers need an additional room to deal with Bee products and process them. Whether it's merely storage, or actual processing, this room needs to be indoors and/or underground to prevent bees from finding their way back to all of their products. Must have a Crafting Bench Must have at least a Double Chest for storage Must have at least 1 Apiarist's Chest (or better) Must have Bee Processing machine(s) when Stage-applicable Should have the Following Tools if Stage-Appropriate: Scoop (Dirt Hovel and up) Beealyzer (Redstone Discovery and up) or better Apiarist's Clothes (Redstone Discovery and up) Bee Meadow The specifics of the Bee Meadow requirements will be heavily dependent on the Bee breed. However, there should be at least a 1 block area for the Bees to fly around in every direction except down (unless desired)--X, Y, Z dimensions. Must have at least 1 of the Bee Requirements (Grass, Stone, Lillypad, etc) must be present for each set of Bees. Must have at least 1 of the following (Depending on Stage, preference, etc; Any of the below--not *all* of the below) Bee House (Stone Hamlet Stage and up) Apiary (Redstone Discovery and up) May be used if traded for from a Testificate Villager. Replacements/Original Apiaries may not be built until Redstone Dsicovery. Alveary (Glowstone Expansion and up) The Bee Keeper, or Apiarist, raises Bees and Butterflies for fun and profit. As a General Rule of Thumb, Each Beekeeper keeps around 25 bees per person in the household. Arboriculture The growing of trees and bushes in order to produce goods. This can range from standard trees to berry bushes to specially bred trees. Generally, Orchards are tended by people from other professions, and kept in public places (or near Farms, Ranches, Plantations, etc). The exception to this rule is that Ore Berries are generally jealously guarded by town rulers/Tinkers/Weaponsmiths. There are two kinds of Arboriculturalists. The Orchard Masters and the Lumberjacks. One is responsible for developing new kinds of trees and harvesting the result, and the other is responsible solely for gathering large amounts of wood. Both tend to Orchards whose size is dependent on how many people they have tending it. Each Orchard is by default only 25-50 Trees. page 245 / 284 Refugee to Regent Challenge Orchard Master Orchard Masters are responsible for planting, growing, tending to, harvesting, and breeding trees that produce useful products. Orchard Hand Bunkhouse Additional Hands can tend an additional 5-10 trees Each Orchard Bonus Building: Composter Orchard Masters recycle spoiled fruit and dead branches and leaves to produce fertilizer for their trees. Affected Orchards may have an additional 5-10 Trees Affected Orchards have an additional 125% Food Point Bonus 1 Composter may affect up to 4 Orchards Composters may affect Lumber Orchards Lumber Orchards do not receive Food Point Bonus Lumberjack Shack Lumberjacks are responsible for planting and cutting down trees to supply their town, nation, and empire with wood.
