UNM nu suggested spot to move (X 597 Y 299):
Pros:
Located between plains and badlands so we could put both Plains HQ and Badlands HQ near each other (forming a large base with protection for our towns), along with two bear traps. Furthermore, we are centrally located to Fortress 3 and Sanctuary 5.
Cons:
Need quite a few banners to even reach this location. Also, we are still probably better off teleporting to Fortress 3 and Sanctuary 5 for efficiency during event. Finally, we will have to move all structures for efficiency to this location.
​
UNM nu suggested spot to move (X 750 Y 449):
Pros:
Pros: Located around the current Plains HQ, we could move here as the Plains HQ is already built, we are in prime position to move into fertile land / King's Castle, located between Fortress 3 and Fortress 4, and can move Badland HQ to around X 895 Y 298 to be located between Sanctuary 6 and Sanctuary 7. We are already located here, so we could move ASAP. Finally, we would be located right next to level 8 resources to reduce travel time.
Cons:
The Badland HQ and Plains HQ will be further apart (maybe an issue during Viking event?), meaning less of a strong base to protect our towns. As with above, we are still probably better off teleporting to Fortresses and Sanctuaries for efficiency during event.
​
By unanimous vote / decision, alliance members wanted to move from current location and move to option 2. Based on this, Lady Kisa Sanura is leading the charge getting territory near our Plains HQ. We will move the bear traps there once more territory is claimed, resources are regenerated, and towns start moving to Plains HQ. In terms of the Badland HQ:
​
I recommend X 900 Y 424 for the following reasons:
1) Proximity to Plains HQ: The distance between both HQ would be roughly 150 km, which is the closest distance we can have based on our constraints (Plains HQ near fertile land, Badland HQ as close to plains as possible).
2) Proximity to USA: This was a legitimate concern brought up by Lady Kisa Sanura. The absolute shortest distance would be X 900 Y 449, but that puts us right on USA territory. Moving 25 km south might not be much, but it gives us some buffer with USA while still minimizing our distances.
3) If you scroll the land between Plains HQ and proposed Badland HQ, there is literally nothing in our way but resources to take.
4) Growth opportunities: Besides the lack of obstacles in our way between HQs, there is open land around the new Badland HQ location (there are old structures from mPP, Fenris will have fun cleaning that up, I'm not seeing any major threats).
​
Bear Trap Grid:
We are still deciding on actual locations for the bear trap(s), but I suggest the following arrangement (red = bear traps, other colors are player towns):
