As Guardsmen, building roadblocks is our bread and butter and should be done whenever idle in Stonekeep. They allow us to slow down passers by, collect taxes and intercept any enemies that may be trying to pass through. It's understood that building a block can be a thankless task. We've decided that you should be rewarded for building roadblocks and in order to allow your creations to contribute to your promotions they need to be reported in this thread. This thread will hold all roadblock reports as a way of keeping the forums from clogging up with similar reports. A roadblock must: - Be at least 3 crates high.
- Block the road from the Tavern to the Ironarm Offices.
- Be manned for at least 30 minutes.
Be creative with your blocks, report any tax collected!

Sir, After being shown how to make crates I thought it prudent to put my new skills to good use. I realised, however, that I could not make doors. With this, I thought of a way to slow down any enemies. This included lower walls for archers to use if needed and also huts with roofs. The structural plans need work and I will endeavour to make a more practical structure in the future. I manned the structure until the wood of the crates became un sturdy and removed them before they could collapse. There were no civilians that passed and no taxes collected. Regards Calci Trant

Trainee, Well done on this. The structure was well planned and well built. We'll soon have you building doors *grins*
Keep up the great work

Sir, After a training with our Allies in Cove where large crates were used as defence I was intrigued to see how these large crates would work for a Roadblock. I managed to persuade some of the stronger Guards and Covians to help carry the crates back to Stonekeep where I built a Roadblock of a new design. Some commented that the structure was not aesthetically pleasing, however, the structure was solid and a local crafter aided by making doors, a desk and chairs. Myself and other Guards manned the structure for a considerable period of time. In conclusion I found that the larger crates seem more sturdy and defensible, but due to the cumbersome nature and the difficulty in making them they would not be so feasible for future Roadblocks. Regards, Calci Trant
