My Dwarf Build, For The Future.

[Tigershield]

Hey guys.

I just want to share some pics, from a build that i'm doing in singleplayer, You all might know that almost everyone in Massivecraft wants to have a own faction, well i want one to in the future. I'm gathering 200 silver ( it's hard to earn it, haha) I do need to say that i'm already in a great faction, But i want to try to start my own.

The build is supposed to be dwarf style, I dont find it very dwarvish. But if I ever have my 200 silver, I'm going to re-create this build in Massivecraft as good as i can.

Right now i'm working on the grand entrance. The final build will have a big open cave, like the new Massivecraft update "IronHall"

Most of the halls/faction land will be open for the public.

For the last two weeks, i'm slowly gathering resources for this dream.

Hope you like it.[DOUBLEPOST=1368222094,1368151179][/DOUBLEPOST]The redstone lights in the walls, turn on when it's getting darker, because of the daylight sensor, it has been inverted by a NOT gate. I might remove a few lights in the walls.

The rails you see on the walls, lead to nothing yet. It has a small train station in the mountain hall.

The mountain hall has a hidden redstone door that leads to the mountain hall roof. It has a small walk path. And when you enter that room you can walk on the first mountain roof. That roof contains beacon.

The mountain hall, leads to a stair going several blocks lower. And then you enter a small rail station. The minecart ride takes 15 seconds on fullspeed to get to it's end station.when you are in the underground station, it has several minecarts going in circles. So it looks like allot of transport is going on. Then you walk a tunnel, and into a underground lava ravine. The tunnel can be closed by a redstone gate. and locked from the inside so it's raid proof.

And the rest still needs allot of work.

Wow! That's great! It does actually look Dwarven, because Dwarves use an excessive amount of stone. This is awesome. Keep up the good work! I would give you silver, but I have none.

 

[Aeromis]

Looks really great!, Looking forward to seeing your faction if you actually decide to create one.
If you need any extra builders I am always offering to help

 

[Tigershield]

Thanks guys. Right now i'm trying to sell stuff in the trade channel to get funds. haha

Already sold for 15 silver in total goods. Looking forward to it.

I'm also traveling the wild for a good location.

Woah. Lore..... um I really need to think about that.

I just read the lore book on the massivecraft forum, that book about the races. And if i understand it correctly, there are three dwarf clans in Massivecraft. Namely the Northern dwarfs/Middle kingdom dwarfs/southern dwarfs.

The North dwarfs live in the snowy mountains. And are warlike.... (according to the lore book)

The Middle kingdom dwarfs. Are the dwarfs that are most wealthy and have great architectural dwarf holds. But the middle kingdoms are losing the agni war. (according to lore book) Lore book names them Barad-Kham = Rich ones

And you have the Southern dwarfs. They live above ground, and are a little bit taller then the other dwarfs. Because they live above ground, Hillside, i think like the Hobbits in Lotro, that kind of living style.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If i ever get this dwarf faction of the ground, it will center around the "Middle kingdom dwarfs". My faction will be one of holds.

That means it will mostly be open for the public, like traders and visitors. We will share mead in the great halls.

I will try to come up with some lore, in the future that center around this upcoming dwarf faction. I have several faction names that i'm thinking off.

I did some great trade deals today, i made 30 silver today with trading. So i'm closer to my goal. Total silver i have now is around 42.

Sorry for the not so correct grammar/sentence build. It aint my main language.

We keep in touch.

Very nice, good luck with collecting the money and all. I have to say though, the flag colors you use are the colors of alamuts flag, so I recommend you make sure that the colors of the flags you use when you build the halls is an original color.

Oh the flag color. I will change it for sure, now. Thanks for the warning/advice, hahaha.

Yeah getting the silver is allot of work. But it will pay off in the future. Right now i make the most profit my mass producing stone bricks. I run like 15 furnaces in massivecraft non-stop. to get the stone. I sell allot of the stone bricks to to players in trade channel.

And other small goods. But i wont sell diamond and other rare ores. I need them for the decoration.[DOUBLEPOST=1368886496,1368234700][/DOUBLEPOST]I got 101 silver atm. 99 more, haha. when i have my 200 silver it will take some time. Cause i wont create the faction right away. I will need to make resources before i make it.

 

[Kestenator]

Talk to Mecharic if you need money, he runs the (I think) only bank in massive. He can give you a loan.

I have a good bussines going on. It's called the Ironhand company. It has a forum post aswell. So i dont need a loan, and i never will take a loan. It aint in my nature.

I have 130s atm. I made that in 1 week. Doing good.

Even if i have my 200s. I wont start the faction straight away. I will make resources first. Before i actual start the faction. And I need to scout for good locations. Planning is 50% of the work.

But thanks for the suggestion.[DOUBLEPOST=1368971781,1368928391][/DOUBLEPOST]The opening post explained the grand entrance.

Now I want to explain the main area.

The first stage off the main area will be a 200 by 200 by 50 blocks wide area., I will extend this area's roof with 50 or 100 blocks up. And i will make pillars in that main area. But the dwarfs will live inside those large pillars, it will be the homes. On the floor of this area will be the market district to. And a massive furnace.

Off course i will extend this area big time if i get new members.

To give you a idea what i mean here is a picture of a Minecraft Moria build ( i did not make what you see in this pic) but i will take allot of inspiration for this.

The faction will have a outside farms and inside farms. And off course some traps ect. And minecrat rail stations.

Hope you have a bigger picture now from my faction idea.

If you need resources and Dwarf labor Ulldin can provide cheep.

We have a smelting zone in Ulldin where we cook mass amounts of stone and we can build a mountain shell for you.

I find it is allot more rewarding when you dig to build a mountain then to spend mass amounts of time hollowing one out.
Not just that is it feels kinda crammed when you dig it out your self because it ends up being rooms and hallways.
You looking for those natural mountains that are hollow with stalagmites around it?

I got my 200s ! I was on 185s, And the last 15s I got donated by (Alanmc2000) so my total now is 200s and 40 copper.
(Alanmc2000) will get a memorial statue in my faction land.

I have given him my two double chests of stone bricks and 10 diamonds and 1 stack of iron ingots and 10 stacks of baked potatoes.
-------------------------------------
Stage 2, is going active today. Gathering mass amount of resources, like stone bricks and other items. Already have allot.

Stage 3, will be scouting for a good location.

Stage 4, moving all my chests to the new land.

If you want a good location for a dwarf building I suggest the mountains of Ellador

Thanks for the tip.[DOUBLEPOST=1369175898,1369135880][/DOUBLEPOST]I have 260s atm.

Stage 2 = gathering resources. Is going very good.

Alright, I am making mass amount of stone bricks. I got 4 double chests ready now. Will need allot more double chests of stone bricks. Because the hall will take allot and the walls and the pillars. And all other details.

I am going to make redwool and blackwool tomorrow, i need it for the floors.
I got a pillar design ( it's work in progress tho) see pictures. Allot of exterior details are still missing. And imagine this pillar in a 200x200x100 ( will expand when faction get's stronger, Darkroom = Grand Thaig, like the Moria build.

Some info about the the pillar. In the first OP there is a picture of a Moria build with pillars. Well imagine that Moria picture in Massivecraft only the pillars are removed and replaced with my pillars. The pillars will be homes for the dwarfs.

Each pillar will have several floors for homes. The Iron door you see in my picture is the storage room for that pillar inhabitants.

The stair next to the iron door leads to the basement house. It''s right under the storage room.
The stair going up leads to several other house units.

Now imagine a underground city, with all these house pillars. When the faction expands so will the darkroom and pillars.

I think 8 to 10 dwarfs can live in one pillar.

And each pillar will have some kind of officer, that will control the storage and all the dwarf problems in that specific pillar. ( Just an idea)

Each dwarf that lives in the pillar, must work together with the other dwarfs that live in it aswel. So they live and train together. (idea)

Grand Thaig = main area/ city/housing/market/forge ect.

Off course we will have mines. But I'm still thinking if i shall make a mine in the faction land or outside faction land.

Alright this was a little update. XD

 

[Owen_Kearno]

Love to see a faction for every race like this - It looks really good

Thanks. and yes it would be cool to have a major city/faction representing each race style.[DOUBLEPOST=1369619475,1369524332][/DOUBLEPOST]Hey guys another update !

I started my faction. The name of the faction is "Keldagrim" but there is a big chance that i might change the name.

The faction is work in progress. If you want to see several pics of the construction then take a look at the pictures. I do need to say it's bloody time consuming, doing it in survival mode. But I had allot of preparation done, before I actually started it. I only miss flying haha XD,

I try to copy the singleplayer build as good as possible. But There will be slight/big changes. The entire hall in the Massivecraft is already bigger XD. And this is only the Grand Thaig entrance. Imagine the bloody massive darkroom that i need to mine.

I will update as much as possible.

Hope you like it.

 

[funkyadhesive]

Build looks really nice
Although the dimensions are a little simplistic. I'll post some screenshots to show what I mean if you like, I can't explain without some form of visual representation.

Thanks all !

Alright another update.

Some info

- 80% of the entire faction will be inside the mountains.
- The walls still need allot of decoration.
- The towers still need allot of work .

- The inside of the walls are filled with cobble and dirt, So it's massive. No mob can spawn in the dark.
- There will be outside mountain houses.
- There will be a entire rail system ( dwarfs have short legs) Got 10 stacks of rails already.
- I will complete the entire main entrance first, before I start work inside.
- The mountain ridge above the Grand hall,might be a raid problem ( I want suggestions) I'm thinking of making at the back. But I dont know yet how i will fix it.
- I dont know about the two statues. It's hard to make good ones. I find these 2 small. I might look up some videos about statues.
- If you did not know. The faction name is Frosthelm.


Enjoy.
