Dear players,
The castle is back!
Even though you raided multiple castles the last time, these pesky neighbours decided to rebuild it once more! It's time to send mercenaries again to show them that their defending skills still need improvement, and to gather precious medals for new prizes! This time around, your tribe might even get a bonus out of the fray.
Event start: 24.11.15
Event end: 08.12.15
This event will be active on all standard and casual worlds.
Joining the Assault
The castle and the besieging army will appear on the event screen once the event starts.
You can access the event screen via the village overview or the burning castle icon on the top right corner
You will then be able to see the map of the event, with different sections available to reinforce for your mercenaries
Reinforcing
The assault contains 3 categories:
-Assault: when the progress bar is full, 1 to 5 damage (plus bombardment bonus) will be dealt to the castle.
-Naval Supply: when the progress bar is full, it adds 50% of completion to the Assault and Bombardment bar.
-Bombardment: when the progress bar is full, it deals 1 point of damage to the castle and raise the damage dealt by Assault by 3 points
The way to have these progress bars fill is to reinforce it by sending mercenaries to it
Mercenaries will be used then and you will receive new ones every 30 minutes, to a maximum of 16.
Your mercenaries have improved from last time, and don't require a cooldown anymore, meaning you can use them directly without waiting on the different areas.
Reinforcing each area adds 4 points to the this area's progress bar.
The different sections also now require a different amount of mercenaries to activate, with Naval Supply having the shortest progress bar and Assault the highest.
Destroying the Castle
Once the castle reaches 0 HP, it is destroyed. The medals contained inside the castle are distributed equally among all participating players and a new castle replaces it, with more medals inside.
You will also get medals depending on your ranking in the 3 different categories. The more you contribute to one category, the more chances you have to get more medals!
When a castle is below 10 HP, you have a possibility to raid it. It will deal 1 damage to it and grant extra medals
Helping your Tribe
If you are part of a tribe, each medal that you earn will be counted toward the general Tribe Progress. Once the amount of medals gathered by your tribe reach a defined amount, a bonus for the whole tribe activates for 48 hours!
You can also contribute once a day directly to the gauge. This medals are only added to the gauge and not to your medal total
Using your Medals
Your hard earned medals can be used in our event shop, where they can be exchanged for interesting items.
Like last time, the items exchanged for medals during the event will remain in your inventory when the event ends. So you can keep some for future use
We removed some items, and inserted some brand new ones compared to last time!
The following items are available:
-Growing Crops: Permanently increase the maximum population of the current village by 10%
-Flag Booster: Double the effectiveness of the current flag for 48 hours. Changing the flag ends the boost. It can not be used on the Population capacity flag.
-Resource Package: Adds 10% of your Warehouse capacity in resources to all of your villages.
-War Footing: this will improve your recruitment times by 25%. However, wood, iron and clay production will be reduced by 10%. Lasts 48 hours
-Noble Booster: this will increase the loyalty loss of successful noble attacks by 5 for 48 hours.
-Sigil of Distress: this will make support sent to a specific village travel 30% faster for 48 hours.
-War Chest: this will grant you a number of coins/packages equal to the number of villages you own.
-Attack Booster (2 levels): Give an attack power boost to Axemen and Light Cavalry for 24 hours.
-Defense Booster (2 levels): Give a defense power boost to Swordsmen and Spearmen for 24 hours.
-Raid Booster : this will grants a 25% bonus to your haul capacity for 48 hours.
Notes about the event:
Activity and achievement quests are available for the event
In the area's ranking, you can see the name of the players 1 rank above and below you
Players are generally divided in groups of 50 (it is possible to be less)
Transferring to casual won't transfer any medals or items related to the event
Once the event ends, you will still have 48 hours to access the event shop and use your medal, via the event screen. After that delay, the event screen will be removed, the medals taken and the access to the event shop won't be accessible. You will keep all the items in your inventory!
You can see more of the event in this Youtube video
Return to the castle and assault it for medals!
