Getting the materials you need from where they are to where they need to be is a big ole pain in the butt.2. the price for stone doubles every 10-12 miles it traveled on land.  Its good you have a river so the first thing you'd have to do would be build docks.3. even if they want to just use the trees around the town that they're going to have to season the wood unless they just want to use it green and take all the warping that's going to cause.  (green wood was the most commonly used mood in the MA)4. They're going to need tons of morter to hold all that stone together and that means they need tons of limestone and even more tons of wood to heat the limestone..  hope there's limestone nearby... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />5. internal buildings made mostly of wood right?  any other large stone structures that i should figure into my estamate?  how tall are these buildings.. height is very important when technology is limited.anyway.  lemme know the scale....  and i'll give you a back of the envelope GP amount.  I'm still working on determining the length of time and number of workers needed for my building system so i don't know how much i can help you with there.joe b.</blockquote>
