Modular buildings can be built and adjusted to adapt to needs (or aesthetics) as the village expands. The first two modular buildings are the builder's workshop (which can be extended with a [[sculptor's workshop]]) and the market.

The first two modular buildings are the builder's workshop (which can be extended with a [[sculptor's workshop]]) and the market. With exception to [[quarries]] and the builder's workshop, modular buildings start by designating a center point to build from. All modular buildings will have one or more mandatory requirements that will prevent the building from being constructed if not provided. For instance, the [[Rustic Church]] must have a door, core and bell tower in order to be constructed. | ||
