A Block is a material shaped into a block. Stone and wood can be shaped into blocks at the Mason's workshop or Carpenter's workshop. Glass blocks can be made at the Glass Furnace.
Blocks are required to make roads, wells, and pumps. They can also be used in place of raw stone or wood in other constructions, but the difference is purely in the value and style of the construction. A pillar made out of normal stones is called a rough pillar.
Blocks, unlike raw stone or wood, can stack in bins in bar/block stockpiles.
A block has a value of 1 2/3 of the base material. A block made out of pine wood (value of 3☼) has a value of 5☼. A block made out of obsidian (value of 9☼) has a value of 15☼.
