Apologies for the lack of a dev post. Bbgun's been away for a week, and I'll be away myself this week as well. Things should pick up again after next week. Here is my up to date pre-launch checklist for First Light. The majority of the remaining workload is resource planning and spending time with plugins trying to get them to work correctly.

I've seen a lot of new people around the sub lately. Unfortunately we're not planning on having any new-player friendly posts until we're ready to announce the start of First Light. If you have questions, feel free to ask them here and I'll help you understand what this project is and how things usually go around here.

As always, help is greatly appreciated. If you'd like to help out with CivEx, shoot me a PM. Helping out with CivEx doesn't disqualify you from playing on the server.
