It's absolute doo-doo that has removed builds from an interest of the server. Everyone tries to squeeze out the most out of a 70x70 plot, often making square (ugly) castles, or a fence for the perimeter. We cannot finish our build in Lorraine because half of a hill exceeds the 150x150. fief plots: 70x70 = 4 900 square blocks to build upon settlement plots: 150x150 = 22 500 square blocks to build upon capital plots: 500x500 = 250 000 square blocks to build upon Capital plots are x11 larger than settlement plots, and over x50 than fiefs. The system's limitations are over-zealous and actually hurt people's ability to actually meet the activity requirements. I like the activity checks, and I feel those that fail to meet them should be made to give the build to ET, but these building limits are too much and really just are impossible to justify IRP. I would advise staff to simply review builds on the build servers nations use if they're that stiff.

With the sun rising on a new day, a courier rides from the East into the city of Johannesburg and along to the Apostolic Palace. A letter from the Regent of Lorraine finds itself passed along to the Ordermen guarding the gate. It reads as follows: Greetings to you Your Holiness, My apologies for not coming personally to deliver this message; I wish not to imply at all any disrespect or disinterest, but I toil in the East with my people to establish Lorraine. For well over a year now, I have had to guide the Archduchy in my brother’s stead. As a second son, perhaps it is just good manners that I did not expect to have to maintain my father’s legacy, but every day going on the permanence of my position becomes clearer to me. In knowing that, I appeal to you now. With mild motions I work to move the good Lotharingian men and women, but without the guidance of The Creator, I do so with doubt in my heart. Nothing but an ardent passion backs all my words and actions, but I know that my efforts alone are no match for the evils of the world. Our lands are named after our most holy of symbols; the Cross of Lorraine. Canon’s place in Lorraine is central, in both culture and tradition. It would be my greatest shame as a good and faithful man to see his own outside of the guidance of GOD. Having all this admitted and in mind I must implore that we meet most immediately, assuming you can humour me with an audience. My faith and effort in the Church of Canon will not end where my responsibilities to the Empire begin, and I believe between us both, we can set a new precedent for all faithful to follow. Humbly yours, Regent of Lorraine, Jacques d’Amaury

"Ban this!" Screams Jacques, shocked at the wild claims held within this most masterful of smut!

Jacques frowns upon hearing of this, shaking his head as he continues reading. "No true citizen would tolerate fraternization with the rebels; they bomb churches, commit to banditry on the roads, and have no law code of their own. I quite honestly doubt they are even smart enough to leave an event like this unmolested."
