Japanese Castle
A 1,600-structure Japanese-inspired castle in wood and stone, with multiple tiers, detailed rooflines and substantial interior space. Entirely vanilla - no DLC and no mods - which makes it one of the larger builds here that will place on any PC server without extra content. Expect the roof detailing to account for a large share of the structure count.

Find raw materials on The Island
ASA only. These links cover Metal, Crystal, Oil and Obsidian on The Island; they do not establish locations on other maps or in ASE. Read the location guide for source scope and access limits, then open the filtered atlas.
Quantities below are the raw-material alternative to the prepared list above. Do not add the two lists together. Official processing recipes are expanded with shared demand combined before rounding to whole crafting batches; spare output is shown in Raw material equivalents. This assumes you craft the prepared materials from these recipes. Processing fuel, travel and server overrides are outside this crafting list. Map markers show recorded placements, not guaranteed harvest yields or farming times.
