📯Alliances. Part 2
Hey everyone - it's here. The new update just dropped.
From this point on, all players are now split into two big groups:
• 🌡 those in an Alliance
• 😎 and those without one.
If you're in an Alliance, Fortress Battles are now available.
Also, with all these changes, guild HQ locations have been reset.
If you're in a guild, you can now pick a new HQ tile. Go pick your spot.
Here's how it works:
• Only Alliance Leaders can sign up their Alliance for a Fortress Battle.
• Sign-ups open 24 hours before the fight and close 1 hour before it starts.
• The first fight happens at the same time as the daily Region Battle - 16 UTC.
• To participate in the battle, you must:
1) Be a member of the Alliance that signed up
2) Be standing on the Fortress tile at the time of battle
• If a Fortress Battle happens, the tile enters cooldown for 7 days + 3 hours.
• This cooldown shifts slightly each time to make the timing fair across timezones.
If your Alliance wins and captures the Fortress:
• That Fortress becomes your new "campfire"
• Your alliance will choose a color - and fight under it.
• You can now capture nearby tiles and spread your color across the map.
We're also adjusting how Claim works - and splitting it into two distinct commands.
Trigger
This is a new command that starts a one-hour battle on an unsafe tile.
• Any player can use it, as long as the tile allows PvP.
• It works like this: when Trigger is used, a battle is scheduled for the next full hour.
• That’s your classic "Hour Battle" - nothing changes here.
Claim
Now it's only available in specific situations:
If you’re in the Explorers faction (aka no Alliance):
• You can Claim tiles that belong to color-faction Alliances.
If you’re in a color-faction Alliance (Alliance that owns a Fortress):
• You can Claim tiles owned by Explorers, but only if they are directly connected to your Fortress through adjacent tiles
More soon. Stay sharp.
