This recent griefing has proved that we citizens have to be strong as individuals to combat assailants against the town and the alliance. There are things you, megatonian citizens and cairdians can do to support a better fighting force. Genova and I have been trying to do something that should probably have been done with more people to begin with; make an armor factory. The progress we got has been to complete the chestplate factory and have a surplus of diamonds. So I encourage that people mine and USE A SILK TOUCH PICK My math says that we have 3.5 more stacks of diamond ORE to get before we finish the armor factory With donations we could provide 1 free d set to people and keep things running smoothly with some profit from sales of more sets of diamond armor to other nations through traveling salesmen (Cairdians will have discount) Of course diamond armor only goes so far Enchants are also needed for a strong individual Using a diamond cauldron, the following materials needed to create 2 stacks of exp bottles : 2stacks of wheat (easy to grow)(slightly lacking) .25 stacks (16) of cocoa (obtain by trade or colony)(lacking) 2 stacks of pumpkin (expand farm) (lacking) 4stacks of cactus (trade) (enough for a few more runs) .125 stacks (8) of red rose (easy) (super surplus) .5 stacks of spider eye (Mr.Green) (lacking) .5 stacks of grass (easy)( slightly lacking) .25 stacks of cooked fish (current surplus) .25 stacks of red mushroom (current surplus but could use more)

So here's what I need from the people: donations of diamond whenever you can (make sure you have a set and the basics first) Wheat to buy from farmer rachel Someone to build a glorious huge new pumpkin farm east of iron district (multiple volunteers needed) note pumpkin stems take 2 days to grow Mr.green to collect spider eyes and sell them to us (will be rewarded handsomely) Some random person to collect like a chest of grass (Won't be hard just annoying) (will provide shears) And I have current trade connections with this guy for cactus (d per stack) so don't worry about that And someone to get mushrooms on mushrooms somehow Through trade or colony development in nearby mushroom biome

When the armor factory is finished we will celebrate with gifts for citizens who helped and great prosperity in our nation
