OPENING UP THE NEW LANDIf you're reading during the last few days of the Northward Bound mini-event that brought the land expansion you will need to complete the prize track and the end-of-quest tasks before you can open up the new land.If you're reading later, a newer player or returning because you've started a new town you will need to have done enough of the Springfield Heights tasks to have unlocked the tile ocean-side of the bridge first.If you did the mini event you should at least have Connie Appleseed ( prize ) and maybe Cookie ( premium ) to help. They'll hopefully show up in a mystery box or as returning items at some point if not, but you can get the land without them.Connie and Cookie, along with Homer, Moe and Wiggum can be used for the tasks to unlock the land and to earn Deeds afterwards.Once it triggers, this is the questline and some notes to help you -➧ Questline : Brave New World ( 4 parts )➧ Part 1• Collect Wood x15• Collect Nails x15They're 4h tasks, the freemium characters earn 5 each and Cookie earns 8 of the resources when on task - but . . .With all 5 you can earn 15 of one and 13 of another, leaving you 2 short !!If you're in no rush, don't have Connie and Cookie or have side quests for them just sending the 3 regular characters for each resource is only 2 sets of 4 hours.Throw Donuts at it if you can spare them, 2 sprinkles rushing anyone saves that extra 4 hours or use 8 Donuts to rush Cookie twice on each and you're done :smile:➧ Part 2• Make the Group Fix the Bridge - x3 - 4hAgain, good time for side quests or if you're sending on 4 hour tasks anyway who cares !!When you complete this part it will unlock the first tile in the new land and you get it free :smile:➧ Part 3• Make the Group Prospect the New Frontier - 8h You will have been given 10 Maps, so while you only need to send 1 you can send 3 of the group on these tasks.You need 3 Maps per task to send them and each will earn you a Deed to buy more land :smile:➧ Part 4• Make Homer Marvel at all the Donut Veins - 4hI didn't get this to trigger until I'd bought some of the new land, it isn't critical but getting it out of the way means you won't have to worry about having Homer busy later :smile:Keep collecting Maps and use them to send characters on tasks to earn more Deeds or just throw sprinkles at it and rush buying the tiles you want :smile:There's a whole other post on making the most of the new land, including mining those rockpiles for free Donuts - it's also on the Northward Bound event page or here's a link . . .https://www.tapped-out.co.uk/photo/1188/compositenewlandpics/feed_0
