For people concerned about getting... raeli tiles there are several options...
- 500 raeli tiles of one color that meet the acceptable descriptions of bluish, greenish, reddish or yellowish is acceptable. We can easily mix and match your tiles with other peoples to get the colors we need for each tower. Additionally, we can easily trade the colorful tiles for black and white if we need to.
- There are several groups out there that will trade non-tile resources for tiles... 80 of most alloys or 120 of most metals will buy you 500 tiles.
- There are several guilds / individuals that are actively trading tiles.
***** All of the data below assumes the T2 costs, BUT have been adjusted with the T3 data that we already know about. *****
Suggested High Contributers Contribution Level
Based on T2 Costs to build a 500 foot tall tower and a one twentieth share of a 500 foot tall pump with an upgraded cistern.
If we have more than 20 people that are willing to do the "full-monty" we can adjust the fixed cost items and still collect the full amount on the variable cost items. This will allow for a higher Pump with a larger storage cistern.

High Contributers Contribution Level
Builds a 500 foot tall tower and a one twentieth share of a 500 foot tall pump with an upgraded cistern.

This basically is the cost of a high tower near the pump and a share of the pump costs.
The costs are very high and I would suspect that a lot of "inter-Khartoun trading" to get the resources done to get this all together.
Construction costs:
Cost of Raising the Pump
* 80,000 Bricks
* 4,000 Concrete
* 1,269 Cut Stone
* 20 Pipe Segments
* --/10 Specific Gearboxes
o 40/40 Medium Gears (estimated cost, probably less if gearboxes are 1 output gearboxes)
o 100/100 Small Gears (estimated cost, probably less if gearboxes are 1 output gearboxes)
A few High Contributor Questions...
- What happens if we have less than 20 High Contributors
- We can redo the math and divide the amount by the lesser number of High Contributors.
- What happens if we have more than 20 High Contributors
- If more than 20 people actually sign up and fully contribute the full share, we can rebate back equally to each person the extra fixed cost materials (items like the marble) after the pump is up.
- All of the full contributed people would have equal opportunity in the lottery.
- A High Contributor who has not fully contributed and is seriously short can be placed in the build order between the High and the Medium Contributors
- ''We are not going to block some from the lottery if they are close to fully contributing and will trust that they will finish contributing as soon as they can.'
This basically is the cost of Pump station.
The costs are very high and I would suspect that a lot of " trading" to get the resources done to get this all together.
