Ft. Gears
Ft. Gears is more than just the 108,000 cobblestone blocks that compose its castle keep—it's an entirely self-sufficient community. The fort and its outlying regions cover over a square kilometer of carefully terraformed land. It grows enough food to feed an army, and its forests provide energy and building material for the same.
It is, in three words, worth the trip.
Directions
Ft. Gears is an easy walk from the world's Spawn Point. It is well-connected to each of its nearest neighbors, Mt. Paradox, Shagariden, and Einlund, by roads. In order to accommodate overland traffic, each outer wall has an entrance at its center. The Ft. Gears DTA minecart station links it directly to Shagariden and Mt. Paradox, while an alternate station offers easy access from Einlund.
The castle has one Nether gate, situated deep within the central tower. It can be reached via the Mt. Paradox ←→ Shagariden tunnel in the Nether.

Features
Ft. Gears boasts many exciting features, designed to be a fortress against hostile forces. Each wall is designed to thwart Spiders, and the walls make excellent defenses from Creepers and Zombies, and the exterior moat wards away even Endermen.
Each of her four Storehouses, located at each corner of the inner courtyard, provide storage space for 1080 stacks of blocks and items in 20 double-wide chests, and are all equipped with Enderchest Access.
Located on the Southwest Corner of the Courtyard is the Foundry. This structure oversees the smelting of glass, iron, gold, and brick, boasting an impressive 39 Furnaces. The Foundry at Ft. Gears more than meets the needs for any project.
Located on the East of the Courtyard are the animal farms, kept in safe underground pens. These farms contain spaces for chicken, cow, pig, and sheep, each containing several dozen of each animal. Residents of the server are more than welcome to come for the food, feather, wool, and leather resources, but are asked to please not take more than you sow.
