Thread: Noob Mayor anyone feel like helping me get my city started?
Thanks, but I think it's easier said...
I will keep working hard at it.
I don't think there is an easy answer - but some of the following might help :
1) look out for another guild of a similar size which would complement yours e.g. if you are crafters, then a small PvP guildmight be a good complement to create a internal market and add diversity to your town. Get this new guild to join your city - create the town square area out of the city hall and PA halls, then you can add other civic structures on to the square lateras and when the city grows.
2) hang out round Mos Eisley or any other starting location and advertise to noobs that you are starting a city. Find a friendly architect and get a price for a small house - help the noobson missions untill they can afford the house - they will appreciate the xp as well and you'll get to know them before they move in to the city :-)
3) Look out for a novice architect without a homeor an artisan whoneedsa project to become an architect- they'll have a ready market for houses, buildings and furniture for the foreseeable future, and they'll be able to master architect without grinding gungan head statues (believe me - it worked for me :-)
4) If any of your guild can survey, then start buying harvesters and stockpiling tonnes of low quality ore and low quality metal - 'sell' it to an architect in return for small houses ..... or save it for your 'tame' architect to use :-)
Also - the pioneer spirit idea has already been pointed out by Neekocha. Advertise for people who want to build the city from scratch with a proper design and layout - that is a great selling point IMO

Many thanks, I hope you dont mind but I used a lot of your text in our recruiting post. It was very well written and exactly what I think we need to sell.
