can't wait :000
Hello everyone,

The home chunk is where you were standing when you created a town. To expand beyond this chunk, you will need to use the command /town claim. Each additional chunk will cost $200 and they have to connected to the claims (edges). You can have two claims not attached to the edges by using /t claim outpost. Outposts will not cost money to create.
Upkeep
Every day your town has to pay $10 per chunk for upkeep. This means if your town fails to pay, it will be disbanded/unclaimed, so make sure you deposit money into your town's bank account using /t deposit <amount>

You may also set surnames and titles for players using /n set surname/title <player> <surname/title>. The nation spawn is the capital city which is the town/city of the player that created the nation and it can be set using /n set spawn.
Other Information

The cost to start a siege is $75 per chunk owned by the town you are sieging you can use a white banner to surrender. A siege lasts 3 days to earn points you need to either capture the banner or kill enemies. For each kill, you receive 150 points and once you control the banner you gain 10 points for every 20 seconds you maintain control of it you must remain within 16 blocks of the banner to hold control.

➥ Economy
The economy on this realm is different from what you see on the rest of the network. On Earth, there will not be a centralized server shop, instead, players can create their own shops and they will all be listed in a directory at /playershops. To get materials, you will need to gather it yourself from this vast world or through quests (town and solo quests) and the Cash Cow.
There will be a 15,000 x 15,000 1.16 nether world also available to gather materials as well. Town creation & outposts are disabled in the nether.
➥ Live Map
There will be a live dynmap available at earth.manacube.com where you can see the claims for each town and some town details. You can zoom in or out and you will be able to see online players and their coordinates.
➥ Teleportation
You can teleport randomly to a continent using the command /wild, /continent, or /continents. This will open a GUI which will allow you to select a specific continent to teleport to. Each teleportation will cost $50. You starting balance will be $50 when you first join the realm so don't worry about not being able to afford a random location right off the bat!
