When did this appear? First time i've noticed it. Is this why some of us had trouble accessing the site today?
 Chancery of Estates Level 1The Chancery of Estates functions as a bureaucratic and administrative building in a town, creating, holding and updating all the records for the town's Sovereign Claims, and providing maintenance and repairs to the infrastructure of your town's Sovereign Land. The Chancery of Estates allows your town to claim Sovereignty over unsettled squares at a substantially cheaper rate than normal - reducing the Research and Gold cost of all the town's Sovereign Claims by 3% per building level. However, this building does spend raw resources on maintenance as well - 100 each of Wood, Clay, Iron and Stone per hour per building level.

And if this is gonna be a permanent addition, how about similarly adding a building plot for the new structure? Is this gonna or not happen?

Hi all,
First up - the "couldn't log in" error some players experienced this morning is unrelated - it appears to be a routing table error with a common ISP that the same players used, and also appears to be resolved by the ISP.
Secondly - this building was released into the wild prematurely and in error.
The dozen or so players who managed to get it built are to be congratulated for their eagle-eyed nature, but would probably also have been disppointed to discover that it didn't actually *do* anything.
I've removed the building from the player towns who managed to get it built, and have also made sure the building option no longer appears for construction in other player towns.
The players who had their Chancery buildings removed have been compensated for our error on this premature release.
Apologies to all.
Regards,
SC

So SC, any idea when this will be released? You've peaked our interest, no, that's an understatement, we all want this building now. :D

Hopefully after the faction update, I've had more then enough of all these silly mini quests popping up but not the real deal factions.

There are plans for many, many new buildings in many, many new areas.
And there won't be any new plots for them - Specialisation is the watchword going forward.
If you want to specialise your city - be it in trade, in military, in magic, in holding sovereignty, in naval affairs etc etc - you're going to have to make choices and sacrifices to specialise. You can, of course, choose not to specialise and keep your cities as they currently are - identikit and homogenous - but you will be at a disadvantage in a particular area or areas vs a city that has specialised in a particular area or areas.
Regards,
SC

I should also point out that I've just read what was posted about the Chancery of Estates building that was accidentally unveiled - and this was an older work-in-progress version of the building.
What I'm saying is that I wouldn't make *too* many specific plans on how you intend to use it until the values, bonuses, abilities etc are confirmed on an official announcement, and it gets released properly!
Regards,
SC

The important question should be what do I spot next that accidently gets an early viewing... Keep your eyes on the forums! 
SC is so blatantly going to be sending saurians lugging siege weapons at me next time I spot one and post it! 
LOL

lol - I wish!
There's nothing I like better than spending an afternoon deleting buildings, resetting building queues and reimbursing players manually... 
Definitely an accident, that one!

I'd like to point out I still haven't gotten anything for pointing out the mistake (again), not even a thank you! 
LOL

I already sent one to the Devs a bit back, the clever *censored*has a link in the signature.
Edit: apparently the original curse word I used didn't censor out, silly Brits.
