Town development
PaxLair is a player owned town of metropolis size.

(June 22, 2014) - Statement made by Governor Winfield:

''Our allocation of lots isn't sorted out yet. Right now we are meeting people through the forums and in the pre-alpha releases inside the game. We want to test ideas in the pre-alpha releases too, like world-wide / multiple time zone events in R7, books in R8, more community crafting, PvP effects on a player town, government ideas, and much more. All these things will help everyone decide if PaxLair is the right place for them and each other.''

''So we aren't allocating lots yet. But we are committed to meet people, get fresh ideas, find out who is interested and what they want to do in and around PaxLair. Thanks for your patience!''
