Castle Story: 6/30 Update - Expansions

[SpiritWind00]

Expansions opened today are at map reference:

A8: 3400 RP, 24 WL, 320k C, 3 EP
C9: 2400 RP, 15 WL, 300k C, 2 EP
K10: 3250 RP, 36 WL, 490k C, 2 EP
L4: 3250 RP, 26 WL, 390k C, 3 EP
N7: 2400 RP, 17 WL, 145k C, 1 EP
O9: 3200 RP, 20 WL, 190k C, 1 EP

NEW MAP IN POST 8 BELOW!

Make sure your Royal Point score on your board is = or greater than those shown on the expansion plot. Last expansions there were issues with the green tick on the plot, but in reality there were not enough RP on your board. Game synced out because of this. So, please check carefully so you won't have any issues :)


You can craft permits in the Royal Exchange until you've expanded to the last piece of open land. The option to craft permits then disappears. You can continue to craft trade tickets. There is no cap on trade tickets... :)

Every kingdom is known for its best traits! Xenial lands find more and more visitors every season as word spreads of their hospitality. Perhaps some of those tourists may settle and become new citizens? After all is said and done, the kingdom looks to grow, and its people turn to the surrounding wood in search of reborn prosperity. Now is the time to venture forth and explore further reaches! Depart for the woods, brave kings and queens, and lead your people toward newfound heights!

[==Update will be live starting 06/30 @ noon.==]

I've been playing a game! Have you figured out this week's answer? The answer is: EXPAND

Expansions are great. Was hoping for a hunt

[AnniePMH]

I've opened all new expansions except for the one in the north. No glitches as far as I can tell:)

I was expecting a hunt. I've missed 3 hunts because I'm always away during that time. I'll be away this weekend so I was sure there was going to be a hunt. I'm glad there isn't one but I hope we have one next week.

As for expansions, I'm no where close to these plots but I'll be glad they're open when I get there. Oh, and the firework manticore and skunkupine are cute but I'm still saving for a second magic school and a living tree.

Looks like we're finally getting closer to that mysterious, shiny birdcage looking thing down at the very bottom of the land :D

[ktorewqas]

Great! 12 permits for 6 expansions. I still had 2 which requires 5 per expand. Now I will just work on the newest first lol

I was hoping for a hunt as well, but I am sure expansions will please a lot more players at the moment.

[bwunderbach]

I think the monster hunt will begin tomorrow. I think they are going to let the other quest expire first.

was thinking(hoping) same thing

[cyndora]

nicely done , we needed expansions for a while now, thanks for listening. time too redecorate ! .....now where did i put my martini....

[senshin]

Am I the only one who is gleeful about being able to spend wisp lanterns? Even when I don't have enough trade tickets, I still plunk down the wisp lanterns so I can continue making new ones.

No, you're not the only one! I'm full on everything so no one can gift me anything, and many of my neighbors are also full. At least this means I'll be able to give and receive wisps for a few months. Very nice!

EXPANSIONS!!!!!! My most favorite thing to do in my kingdom! And we're getting closer and closer to the crown! Thank you S8/TL

I agree. I've already paid the coins for all the new ones. Now time to start using the lanterns!

Redecorating! ::flappy hands of excitement!::

Double flappy hands, elbows with a shimmy and some awkward giddy up and go! I LOVE EXPANSIONS!

[SpiritWind00]

I have split out the 2 issues in the 2 releases.... update thread names etc as well.

This thread is for expansions only. The feature items are here: http://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?92578-Castle-Story-6-30-Update-Firwork-Skunkupine-amp-Manticore-deco

I've only been playing for a few months. How frequently are extra spaces added to expand to? Curious how long we all guess it is going to take until that crown is accessible ?

Not very often. I could be wrong but there was a time when we went over a year without any expansions. So no hurry.

[DrP4ever]

Still working on the last set of expansions but glad to see I won't be having a hole in my kingdom anymore. Really disliked fencing that one section out like it was a forbidden forest or some thing. And we are moving towards the bird cagey thing. Cool! Spent the coins, spent the lanterns and now need to build up the lanterns and continue with the trade tickets. Those take me forever, but then I only play on wifi generally at night only.

[echowuuu]

I knew there is an expansion update after I saw the special deal of 100 trade ticket and 2x 50 energy box

[azami1966]

I have lanterns in my inventory but the game won't let me use them I have make more don't understand that

[zoo123g]

yayyyyy. thank you :)

I am a daily player; and I did not receive this offer. Can anyone explain why?? I have posted before that there have been offers I did/do not receive. I think this is unfair ; especially when new expansions are available!!

Yes, corrected!

[karengar]

Silly question but I've used up my Expansion Tickets and would like to make more, where do you craft the expansion tickets? I thought it was in the royal exchange but does not show as an option. Any suggestions? Thanks.

You can craft permits in the Exchange until you've expanded to the last piece of open land. The option to craft permits then disappears. Are you fully expanded?

[karengar]

@SpiritWind00 yes I am now fully expanded but tickets depleted. Next expansion I'll know not to do the last one so I can replenish. THANK YOU for helping/answering my question.

You can still keep getting your trade tickets ready for next time :) there is no cap on trade tickets, so keep trading. Lucky you to be finished already! :):):)
