[hide]#Military step one:sustaining life on Magma ==Military step one:sustaining life on MagmaEditEdit== Be aware that magma cannot sustain a nooby player for a long time on magma so make sure to bring alot of seeds along with a farming ability. There are only 2 food sorces and 1 water sorce: the lynx meat and the berries so eating only what you need is wise for the first few moments on magma. After you built a well and a well organized farm you are ready to support military life

Military Step Two: Protecting Magma
Pros are often atrracted to this island and often do anything, from slashing to death or bombing your mining town to get their hands on valuble Magma island, so well made defences are recomended. Also keep in mind there is a secret entance to magma in the back so i recommend to block that with a stone wall since bombs cannot fit in the narrow passage behind the island.

Military Step Three: Preparing For War Outside Magma
Starting a war will put your island in danger but you have acess to many of the items needed for war like gunpowder and steel. all minerals that play a key role in war and will help turn the tables.

Trader step one: Trading for good stuff
Being a trader in magma could make you rich so selling your items wisely could get you to being rich. but there are risks to being a trader on magma, Mostly because due to the ores and minerals you would most likely be a war trader meaning that you sell items in war like steel and gunpowder.
