Comparing mine, I seemed to have gone more simplistic this year...though I couldn't help but keep it symmetrical. This year's snow fort! Snow fort from 5 years ago! Share this post Link to post
Posted January 5, 2019 Before the encore, my fort was kinda a park with a chessboard as the centerpiece: Spoiler I remodelled it into a proper castle when the 2013 items are added! The penguins are having a party in the front yard lol. Spoiler Share this post Link to post

I would love to build an ice pagoda, given the correct sort of building blocks (insert hint here). 2013 had a Roman flavor, this year was medieval. In five years, I want bonsais and pagodas, with a silver shimmerscale. Just sayin'. //history geeking Oh, that would be awesome! Share this post Link to post
Posted January 5, 2019 Here's mine: I'm glad the resources didn't respawn when away. Having presents left near the gallows would just be awkward Share this post Link to post
Posted January 5, 2019 My 2013 Fort My 2018 Fort My style was much different. I blame the clutter this year on all the resources I wanted to keep. Share this post Link to post
Posted January 5, 2019 I could never figure out how to make a fort so I never could do it. It was my first Christmas on here to. Share this post Link to post
Posted January 5, 2019 (edited) My 2013 fort My 2018 fort ...i had no idea how to do Snow War, so I got nothing done but a few snow balls, but at least I managed to do stuff for Snow Wars 2. Edited January 5, 2019 by Lady Dragoon Share this post Link to post
Posted January 5, 2019 I had almost completely forgotten about my 2013 fort (I DID remember that I'd had bridges) . Well, it looks like I generally like to have trees at the back and that the gingerbread house ruled even then: https://dragcave.net/holidays13_fort/fly-by-night https://dragcave.net/holidays18/fly-by-night Share this post Link to post

For my fort, i envisioned a peaceful old caretaker residing at the edge of a mountain forest, dutifully maintaining a tree nursery within the walls of an abandoned old castle. This is really amazing! ❤️ --- Mine is a little bit... boring and I forgot to remove those weapons in the end. But well, it's not that bad. Cheers Seriva Share this post Link to post
Posted January 5, 2019 I made a forest :3c And two fortresses. I have a whole story to explain this. Too lazy to type. Share this post Link to post
Posted January 5, 2019 Click here! Here's mine in the actual game. It was meant to be a massive army instead of a homely base. Share this post Link to post

Posted January 6, 2019 I'm so happy with my final version and its bird tent, spooky river, forest tower, and weird snowman corner. Thank you to everyone who made the event possible! Share this post Link to post
Posted January 6, 2019 @Yhme Yours made me cackle, especially with the added narrative! My fort still looks mostly the same as when the Encore started, but I did manage to get a few more mana crystals spawned. ❤️ They're just the prettiest thing~ (My old fort, for reference, was what made me insist on putting up red banners again.) I do prefer the aesthetic of the old one (although having a hedge maze is just wonderful), but I think much of my preference comes from the stark white playing field we had back then. Clearly I missed an opportunity to plaster my new fort with white tiles before putting anything else on it. Share this post Link to post
Posted January 6, 2019 I decided to redo mine at the last minute. Pity about the layering glitch in the castle, but otherwise, I'm very pleased with how it turned out. Share this post Link to post
Posted January 6, 2019 (edited) My fort (pardon the black background, it's on mobile and it was screwing up ever since the update) Edited January 6, 2019 by Dalek Raptor Share this post Link to post
Posted January 6, 2019 Thanks for the event, it was really fun 😄 Here's mine: Share this post Link to post
Posted January 6, 2019 Since people are doing comparisons, here I go as well: 2013: CTF Keep, Doom style. 2018: A cute but haunted cabin in the woods, Blood style, complete with hedge maze. Forgot to remove the cannons but oh well I don't mind em there anyway. apparently it's now my headcanon that my starsingers live there, it's their aesthetic Share this post Link to post
Posted January 6, 2019 (edited) I didn't know that the presents and stumps would stay after the event. Oh well. I still like my little village! I, unfortunately, did not play Snow Wars the first time. I remember having a weird hiatus around that time, because I was going to school.

Posted January 6, 2019 Quite chaotic but I reallt wanted to insert all the ice creatures and the chess pieces 😅 Share this post Link to post
Posted January 6, 2019 Wow, some forts are really pretty! Particularly love the hedges I kinde like my fort from 2013 better. I missed the last few days of the event, otherwise I might've changed a few things, like adding more trees and putting the snow wall around the whole fort. Share this post Link to post
