    So I am thinking about making my own, and I have a layout built on Playstation and the /t spawn has a Roman look to it and it also has a Greek look to it. And I was wanting to know some of your ideas or suggestions so comment below what you are thinking!!

    Thanks!!

    I'd love to see a Greco-Roman layout, but a necessary (or fairly necessary component) is marble and that's expensive. :/

    Quartz is way to expensive

    And I think that the use of sandstone is fine, if you need any ideas and help with knowing so roman culture or words to help your town contact me (I have taken Latin I and II)

    If you need town names I would suggest looking up ancient Greek and Roman names! Also they didn't just build with shiny white stuff (it was actually more marble than quartz...) They used stone brakes and most places were actually really colorfully painted. We just started covering the Romans in History of Architecture but if you need any help just send a messenger my way

    It should have a temple on top of a hill because that's what the ancient people did for their town/cities. All of them had worshiped some kind of Deity so you should have an ancient looking statue of Imdeity. That would look really cool :)

    That's exactly what I mean (they made the temples specifically to house the big god statues and such actually) (Fiver is me and I am Fiver)

    well I thought to myself "you could use the Latin word for power". The small setback there is that power in Latin apparently has about 25 different words for it, depending on what you use it for (I.e. The word for power when used like "might" and "superiority" is different for if you use it to mean "to power something" "the power of movement", if that makes sense). Here it is
    potentia
    Power, might, force, strength, grasp, hold
    potestas
    authority, Power, control, might, Dominion, grasp
    vis
    force, violence, STRESS, strength, energy, strain
    manus
    hand, work, efficiency, vim, arm, forearm
    opes
    wealth, resources, means, treasure, substance, Power
    lacertus
    Lizard, arm, strength, limb, hand, vigour
    pollentia
    might, Power
    quantitas
    amount, quantity, size, extent, volume, greatness
    opulentia
    wealth, opulence, riches, richness, sumptuousness, might
    opulentitas
    opulence, riches, richness, wealth, sumptuousness, might
    sanguis
    Blood, bloodshed, carnage, massacre, Power, might
    ops
    Power, might
    auctorita
    Power
    regnum
    reign, kingdom, realm, rule, dominance, dynasty
    praesentia
    presence, ubication, attendance, strength, force, effect
    auxilium
    assistance, help, aid, support, backing, military force
    efficacitas
    efficacy, efficiency, Power, strength
    ecficacitas
    efficacy, efficiency, Power, strength
    queentia
    possibility, opportunity, chance, ability, Power, skill
    facultas
    feasibility, ability, capacity, opportunity, capability, facility
    dicio
    sway, control, Dominion, authority, sovereignty, Power
    ditio
    sway, control, Dominion, authority, sovereignty, Power
    arbitratio
    arbitration, choice, judgement, judgment, jurisdiction, Power
    praepotentia
    might, Power


    Tbh a lot of them would sound really cool as a town name. Personally I like sanguis. Sounds cool. But it's up to you.


    P.s. Sorry if it's a bit long
