Claim Land and Set Custom Borders for Your Colony
Understand Land Claims
Your
Town Hall automatically claims a 3×3 chunk area (the chunk it's in plus eight surrounding chunks). To expand beyond this, you'll need claim tools.
Use the
Land Claim Scepter
Right-click with the Land Claim Scepter on any chunk to claim it and the eight chunks around it instantly. This is the fastest way to expand your colony's territory in large blocks.
Draw Precise Borders with the
Border Scepter
For more control, use the Border Scepter to draw exact borders block-by-block. This is useful when you want to follow natural features like rivers, cliffs, or coastlines, or when you want to avoid claiming land near other players' colonies.
Release Unwanted Land
If you claim too much or make a mistake, use the
Land Release Scepter to give chunks back. Right-click to deselect claimed land.
Check Your Borders
White lines appear on the ground showing your colony's claimed territory. Use these visual guides to plan where to expand next and ensure your buildings stay within your borders.
