Version 7 Closure

Thank you for building Astra

Version 7 was built by many people who cared deeply about what they were creating. We are proud of what was accomplished over the past year, and we especially thank 0xBit for the immense amount of work he contributed throughout this era of EarthPol.

Final V7 Access

Astra will remain available in spectator mode during the closing period so players can explore the world one final time, preserve schematics, and revisit the history built there.

Version 8

EarthPol will return in 2027. There is no scheduled release date yet, and development will take the time needed to build something lasting.

Expect regular updates, roadmaps, surveys, Q&As, and more community involvement as the next version takes shape.

QuickShop

QuickShop helped players build markets, trade routes, and local economies throughout Astra.

Towny

Towny shaped the towns, nations, borders, and diplomacy that defined Version 7.

BlueMap

Explore Astra from above and revisit the geography behind its final political landscape.

Custom Plugins

Systems like TradeWar helped define V7's economy, conflict, and player-driven history.

1:326 Map

Astra used EarthPol's custom-made 1:326 Earth map, with real-world geography, rivers, and landscapes serving as the foundation for a year of geopolitical history.

Building

From small towns to major capitals, Version 7 was defined by the builders who turned the map into a lived-in world. The archive exists so those creations can continue to be preserved.

Diplomacy

Treaties, alliances, sanctions, trade disputes, and statecraft shaped Astra's political landscape from launch through its final days.

War & Combat

SiegeWar, bounties, and organized PvP created many of V7's defining conflicts. Those battles now stand as part of the Astra record.

Continued Stewardship

As EarthPol moves toward Version 8, stewardship of the project will be shared across server management, development, architecture, public relations, and community communication. More details will come as the 2027 version takes shape.
