Work in Progress Insight:

Bastion

According to Community feedback, we've been asked to make something that will encourage entire nations to be more supportive and united in a common task: to hold and extend your territory, and to make all the gameplay features more connected.

Inspired by the Bastion feature from Siege Survival: Gloria Victis, we will introduce the castle management system, offering better rewards for caring for the castles and their needs – both those controlled by nations and guilds. Combining Bastion with the recently introduced resource gathering system will add a brand new rich gameplay layer and encourage players to be more active in the ultimate conquest.

Each main building in the game will become Bastion. After opening the Bastion window you will see some more information and relations than before:

The efficiency of Bastion, depending on the satisfaction of needs, will be a very important part of the castle management and overall efficiency of the buildings, for an example: guardhouse – will depend on this variable.

You will be able to increase castle efficiency by filling the castle needs bars:

  • Armament – Weapons and armour donated to the castle

  • Tools – items much needed in mines, farms and lumber mills

  • Food – provision supplies for citizens and guards

  • And Morale – which will depend on the amount and taking care of dangers around the castle and filling the booze cellar :)

Each flag in-game will have different needs and demands. Temples and Strongholds will focus more on food supplies and armament, where economical flags like mines – will have a higher demand for tools.

On your pursuit for mastery of the craftsmanship, you have work on your skills through practice. Surely, there are times where your work brings fruits - crafting products - which don't have much market value, but rather help you improve. Because of that, the Bastion will be a good alternative, always rewarding better than, for example, selling crafted goods to an NPC.

Overall, the Bastion feature will add a new gameplay layer, encourage players to be more active on frontlines and will be another important part of the balance improvements. We hope you will like it and actively help your nations grow!

Stay tuned, and see you in battle!

Freebuilding

A part of the changes required to introduce upgraded and the extended Freebuilding feature can and need to be implemented before the main improvements are applied. That is why we are already changing some aspects of it, fixing the core to give you some crucial improvements earlier:
