Hi Lem! Thanks for the quick feedback. I've expanded the wheat fields - atm it's just harvested, but I can change it if you want a full field of grown plants.

I approve! I left some melons around with feedback, but it's all stuff that I think can be taken care of after the build is in-game.
Now you just need another mod's approval!

Small update: with Aferys's septry done and Vis's castle underway, the main River Road valley is starting to near completion! I'm currently updating timber and plaster patterns to include the new blocks, and the "final" stages will involve terra clean up, forests, and the ruining of Tarbeck Hall!
However, there's still a lot left to be done in Hornvale. Just a reminder that orange plots are open for building unless there's a tag saying "special" or "ask to build" (or they're a bridge), and there are a number of open house/building plots throughout the valley (but mostly behind the castle on the eastern side of the lake). I'd also greatly appreciate someone taking one or two of the WIP storage buildings in the vineyard!
Here are the open minis in Hornvale:
/warp hvlogging - A logging camp with accompanying lumber mill. They practice selective logging and supply lumber throughout Hornvale lands. The camp should have permanent (or at least long term) structures/buildings rather than tents.
/warp hvfarm2 - A flax farm with a nearby farming hamlet. You have the freedom to plan that entire side of the river bend if you want. Good for builders looking for experience with plotting and builder feedback!
/warp hvmine - A gold mine.
/warp hvquarry - A limestone quarry. Include work buildings.

Hi all!
I’m happy to announce that after nearly four years Sarsfield Castle is complete and ready for post-approval! I thank you Lem for your patience in waiting all this time to see it done, and also all the builders who have helped me along the way.
I want to give a special shoutout to Mayflumes who was my partner at the beginning of this mini and unfortunately is no longer active on the server, I do think and hope he’d love it as much as I do, and also to Everlast who helped me a great deal, especially at the end I’d never finish this up if it wasn’t for him.
I await your feedback Lem!

Overall, it looks good to me! Just one question: when are you headcanoning the Sarsfields as being loyal to the Targaryens? Because they really seem like Lannister loyalists to me

Whoops, I had one more bit of feedback. I thought I edited my post last night but it doesn't seem to have stuck.
My only other thing to change has to do with the more intricate rocks you've done at the base of the castle. I like the idea, but they're perhaps a bit overdone and they look very different from the surrounding mountainous area. Additionally, they're mostly only concentrated in the front of the castle. if you're making the rocky base more intricate, it should be that way on all sides of the castle. And finally, I like the dark terrainset, but I've generally used alt terrainset for the darker parts of stony terrain. Could you see what it would look like with alt or at least try doing a transition from dark to alt to regular terrainset?

Hi there,
I am applying for the Hornvale quarry mini. I have attached a rough layout of the mini, as well as a few screenshots of the test. Lem and I have discussed in-game the general idea for the quarry and I'd like to thank her for the advice. The test in full can be found at /warp cdogz.
The quarry will cut into the lower side of the hill. The hill itself is quite steep, so the red outline of the quarry above can't cut too far into the mountain without the quarry having to get too big. The work area will have a few buildings for the quarry. A small stable for donkeys, storage for tools, as well as places for the quarry workers and the stonecutter building where the large blocks of stone from the quarry are tended to.
This is a small example of the quarry itself.
A birds eye view of the test, the red wool denotes the three levels of the quarry, the yellow wool is for cranes and the purple is a rough outline of the quarry's buildings.
A front view of the quarry.
Buildings tests.
Cranes tests.
Stonecutters interior and exterior test.
This is my first mini so I hope it's okay! Would really love any feedback
