"finished" the page so far, with all blocks I could think of covered in the different "ages". Maybe hold off on translating for a couple more days though, since there's probably stuff I forgot.

File:Glass-plain.png|'''[[Glass]]'''<br> can be obtained once the player has a [[bloomery]], charcoal and quartz chunks. These requirements ''can'' be fulfilled without basic metal tools, but it will be comparatively harder.

= Requirement: Basic metal tools =
Once the player has found their first copper bits and ventured into [[casting]] metal into tools, they not only gain easier and faster access to already familiar resources, but also some new crafting methods and therefore blocks.<br>
The possession of a [[pickaxe]] finally allows to mine ores and minerals as well as loose and whole [[rock]]s. Crafting a chisel allows for some advanced crafting recipes, but mainly opens the possibility for complete design freedom, as almost every building block can be [[chisel|chiselled]] into different forms or even combined with different materials.


<gallery>
File:Grid Rock granite.png| Any stone type of whole '''[[rock]]''' can be obtained by mining out the 6 directly adjacent blocks around it, making the whole stone block fall as an item that can be picked up.
File:Ore nativecopper granite.png| Similarly to rock, any type of whole '''[[Ore Deposits|Ore block]]''' can be obtained by mining out the 6 directly adjacent blocks around it, making the whole block fall as an item instead of dropping only the ore chunks inside. This method works for ores, minerals, and even meteor blocks.
File:Grid Polished Granite.png| Any stone type of '''[[Stone Blocks|Polished Stone]]''' can be crafted with a whole stone block, hammer and chisel. Polished slabs can be crafted by splitting a whole polished block with a hammer and chisel in the crafting grid.
File:Grid Drystone granite.png| Any stone type of '''[[Stone Blocks|Drystone]]''' can be crafted with one stone brick and loose stones of the same type. A mixed variant exists, requiring 8 different kinds of loose stone.
File:Plaster-plain.png|'''[[Plaster]]'''<br>can be crafted with [[sand]] and [[lime]], the latter requiring a hammer for processing. Alternative plaster versions with wood detailing exist, however these require a [[saw]] to create [[boards]].
File:Glass-plain.png|'''Violet, smoky and pink [[Glass]]'''<br> can be obtained once the player has a [[bloomery]], charcoal and the minerals/ [[gemstones]] required for the specific glass tint. There's a number of other glass colours that cannot be crafted by the player and instead only acquired through trade.

= Requirement: Anvil & Saw =
= Requirement: Anvil & Saw =
With enough metal the player can cast their first [[anvil]], unlocking new tools like the [[saw]], and recipes like metal [[Metal Plate|plates]]. The saw specifically opens the technology tree up, since the ability to produce [[boards]] enables the player to create [[Wooden Bucket|buckets]] and [[barrel]]s for liquid storage.
=== Wood based blocks ===
With a [[saw]], the player can create [[boards]], a key requirement for all advanced wooden recipes.
<gallery>
File:Planks-oak.png| Any wood type of '''[[plank]]''' can either be crafted as a block, stair or slab version with one type of [[boards]].
File:Grid Diagonal logs plaster.png| Variants of '''[[Plaster]]''' with wooden detailing can be crafted with a plain plaster block and [[boards]].
File:Woodendoor-north-down-closed-left.png| '''[[Boards|Wooden door]]'''<br>can be crafted with boards in the inventory.
File:Grid Trapdoor.png| '''[[Boards|Wooden trapdoor]]'''<br>can be crafted with boards and sticks in the inventory.
File:Grid Woodenfence.png| '''[[Fence|Wooden fence]]'''<br>can be crafted with boards and sticks in the inventory.
File:Grid Woodenfencegate.png| '''[[Fence|Wooden fence gate]]'''<br>can be crafted with boards and sticks in the inventory.
File:Grid Wooden path.png| '''[[Path|Wooden path]]'''<br>can be crafted with a [[saw]] and aged planks in the inventory. Aged planks can only be acquired by disassembling aged wood items found in ruins with a saw.
</gallery>
=== Brick based blocks ===
With access to a [[barrel]], the player can start making [[mortar]], an ingredient required to craft clay, stone and refractory brick blocks.
<gallery>
File:Claybricks-blue.png| Different kinds of '''[[Ceramic Blocks|Clay brick blocks]]''' can be crafted as a block, stair, slab or chimney version with fired clay bricks and [[mortar]]. Brown and red clay versions can only be acquired from traders.
File:Grid Granite Brick Block.png| Any stone type of '''[[Stone Blocks|Stone brick blocks]]''' can be crafted as a block, stair or slab version with shaped stone bricks and [[mortar]].
File:Refractorybricks good tier1.png| '''[[Steel Making|Refractory brick blocks]]'''<br>can be crafted with fire clay, various [[Pulverizer|crushed]] ingredients and [[mortar]]. Since the effort to create them is high and they are necessary for the process of [[Steel Making|steel making]], their use as building materials is extravagant.
</gallery>
=== Metal based blocks ===
With a steady supply of metal and advanced processing methods on an [[anvil]], the player can create whole metal blocks and other metal based building parts.
<gallery>
File:Metalblock copper.png| Any metal type of '''Metal blocks''' can be crafted with [[Metal Plate|plates]] of that metal type in the inventory.
File:Slantedroofing copper.png|Different parts of '''Copper Roofs''' - slanted, corner, ridge and tip - can be crafted with copper [[Metal Plate|plates]].
File:Irondoor.png| '''Metal door'''<br>can be crafted with iron [[Metal Plate|plate]]s in the inventory or looted from rare underground ruins.
File:Grid glassslab quartz.png| '''Glass slabs'''<br>of all colour variants can be created with a full glass block of the same tint and a [[saw]] with inventory crafting.
File:Glasspane leaded.png| '''Leaded glass panes'''<br> can be crafted with a [[glass]] block, one type of [[boards]] and a [[lead]] ingot.
