madrad 362 Report post Posted June 2, 2012 The main build we will be looking at creating will be a Giant pyramid. A couple other things that would be nice around the place would be a sand quarry and maybe an oasis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dynamo12xr4 38 Report post Posted June 3, 2012 If we go back to the past and make a quary won't That mean a sand quarry will be in our current time but if we go to the future then It will be in that state for the time our present reaches it :S My Flux copasitor may also break So will we be able to get back to the future?

madrad 362 Report post Posted June 3, 2012 A, No tnt as it will destroy what people have made B. As time passes wind will blow and cover up what we have made here...maybe thousands of years in the future people may find it and wonder what type of people would build such a thing... and how Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Devon_HD 97 Report post Posted June 7, 2012 In that video i would love to see them cats (I donno what they are called), Pyramids and that giant mansion/building, that looked incredible, but the problem is there was so may of them and so little of us. If we worked hard enough to get something that that done that would be amazing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dynamo12xr4 38 Report post Posted June 7, 2012 As soon as i heared the intro music i knew it was going to be amazing As fyre UK do an excellent Job There are two main people and around 20-40 others who help And you mean the sphynx or the Tomb Gaurds Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flobby18 2 Report post Posted June 7, 2012 One thing to bear in mind is that the pictures that we can see of the egyptian ruins are just that, ruins, we need to imagine what they'd've looked looked like when they were finished. I'm interested to see how this will turn out, I'll try to gather as much sand as I can without making the mining world look like this, [url="http://www.darrenstraight.com/minecraft/index.php?/topic/2193-please-respect-the-mining-world-environment/"]http://www.darrenstraight.com/minecraft/index.php?/topic/2193-please-respect-the-mining-world-environment/[/url] If we are spawning in a desert biome then sand won't be much of a problem as we'll probably get tonnes from digging out the tombs. One thing to remember though, secure the portal when we're done. Doors open from both sides... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
