The northern hills

The high ground north of Highmarch, with the mine, the lookout and a cave, and the best ore in the region.

Last updated

This page describes today's playtest build. Values may change during playtests.

The hills rise north of the town, about 83 hectares of high ground that climbs to around 72 metres. This is where miners go.

Places

  • The mine sits at the end of the mine road from the north gate. It has a mine shed and four ore faces.
  • The lookout stands on a rise west of the mine, with stone to quarry.
  • The cave lies in the north-east hills, at the end of the cave road. The map marks it as a dungeon entrance. The dungeon behind it isn’t built yet.
  • The hills bridge carries the hill track east from the mine over the river.

What you can mine

Boulders, cliffs and seams in the hills give ore and stone. See Mining.

Getting there

Leave by the north gate and follow the mine road. Ore is heavy, at 12 stones a piece, so bring an empty pack and plan the walk back.
