17.03.2013Happy St. Patrick's Day!
It seems that a leprechaun has left a fantastic surprise on the Mayor's House doorstep: some brew and a gold fever buff from his own personal pot o' gold! Be sure to pass along the good luck and buff your friends' buildings!
Good luck to your Settlers in the coming year!

15.03.2013GM Island Showcase: BB_meesherbeans!
This week's picture courtesy of BB_meesherbeans' island! She takes her water production very seriously, and when her generals are not fighting in adventures, they settle themselves around her Watermill District. Fresh water is of the utmost important to her Settlers, who get really thirsty making all that bread all day!
