Gryphon Manor – Episode 9 – A Brave New World
A couple of episodes ago, I added a wave of new content mods to this world, but I had been sticking close to the estate as I worked on the storage and workshop levels… which means that I have not really seen or benefited from any of the new things that came with those mods. That changes with this episode. I am headed off to explore new lands and see what wonders and resources these new mods have hidden in those lands… just waiting for me to go and find them.
This will be a considerable effort in that it will increase the known world from 25 square kilometers to 100… and that is a 300% increase. It will also give me the data I will need to better plan settlements, roads, bridges, rail lines and more. I am looking forward to it!

Below is the list of mods that I have enabled for this world. All of them are available on Forge. That’s where I got them. I will be running this world with my preferred resource pack as well: Lithos HD/32 (also available on Forge). I have also begun to create my own personal resource pack that fills in the gaps from Lithos. This new resource pack is not publicly available.

Ever since I watched The Sting as a child, I have loved Ragtime music. However, I am not a musician, composer, or even a particularly knowledgeable fan of music. I enjoy what I enjoy and that includes many different genres of music. However, Ragtime is the soundtrack for the era I am simulating and this may the first time that modern listeners may be exposed to it. So I am including a general Ragtime link.
Additional music was obtained from RagsRag.com, a site run by Ragnar Hellspong of Krusenberg, Sweden. He has spent considerable time collecting Ragtime resources and has graciously made them freely available on his site. Please take a look.
