Shardore Tower, the Order of St. Marcus' and the Maester Alliance's headquarters.

The Order of St. Marcus was a builder's organization active throughout CivClassic that sought to create high-quality builds across the server. It was started in February 2018 by Maester Alliance Gobblin and Logic_Man in Mount Augusta in honor of fellow retired Maester Marcus_Flaminius. Through the Journey of the Placed Block, the organization encouraged players to improve the looks of towns and cities across CivClassic, at a time when many buildings lacked flair. With build competitions and a point system, they called on other builders to create beautiful buildings on the server, from lowly houses to large government buildings, rail stations, libraries and more. Eleven nations on the server, most notably Gabon, Varkonia and the Commonwealth contained numerous builds which contributed to the Order's mission. (Full article...)

Current Events

A picture of the CivMC server listing on the first day.
  • CivMC was released last Thursday, June 2. On the day of launch, Wingzero released notes on the new features that would be arriving. A new trailer was created by Dilluexe in anticipation of launch.
  • The launch saw nearly 450 players attempting to joining the server at launch, making it one of the biggest Civ server launches on record. However, players faced queues of over 150 and TPS counts of less than 5. Continuous technical support was made throughout the launch.
  • Many countries surprisingly posted their claims on the first day, with crayon claims getting posted by nations like Estalia and Rhode Island.
  • However, most people were still stuck in the queue by Day 3 of the server, with SoundTech restarting the server by the weekend to increase the player count to relieve the queue.
