With the passing of this legislation, the following changes (New Wording is Italicized) will occur to Village Tiers:
0: Homestead / Land Claim
Requires:
- 1 structure
- FREE
Grants:
- A claim on the land in the immediate vicinity (Note: Does NOT grant region protection)
Notes:
Any build that does not qualify for protection as a hamlet falls under this tier, and Rules 6-8 apply; however, any build within 200 blocks of a village that the builder does not own is subject to being claimed by the owner of that village after 7 days when a warning is provided. This is an exception to Rules 6-8 in this scenario. The Village Owner must provide a warning and give the builder 7 days to move their build before the Village Owner can claim it for themselves.
1: Hamlet

- Basic Rules for Villages on VC enforcement
- Ability to join Village Unions
- 2 month owner inactivity leeway

You can not claim a Hamlet that is within 200m of a Village you are not the owner of. You can only get a Hamlet claimed within 200m with consent from Owner provided to the Staff protecting the Hamlet.
