This page will detail game mechanic changes to serve as a quick reference to returning players

Age 72

NW Changes: Peasants will now be 0.25 NW, and soldiers will be 0.5 NW and 1/1.
SOT change: we are considering adding a 'last seen' line to SOTs that will show most recent activity in addition to displaying information related to any active Kingdom Ritual
Scientists: generated on a flat ratio similar to wizards instead of via RNG.
Explore pool: remove kingdomwide explorepool and replace it with province level exploration pools.
Gains: Replace Networth Based Gains (NWBG) with a hybrid Land Based Gains (LBG) system that incorporates NW.
Networth Protection: Significantly reduced for spells and sabotage operations.
Op success rate: Success rates made significantly easier to achieve
Wars and wins: Significantly reduced.
Wars and wins: In order to incentivize conflict between top WW kingdoms, we have altered the formula to provide additional WW points (scaling from the current if the kingdom you war is outside of the top 50 for land, honor, NW, and warwins) to double the current points.
Wars and wins: Additionally, we are adding a new set of WW bonuses. Kingdoms will receive recognition on their kingdompage based on the number of WW points they achieve. Each additional 'tier' that they obtain will also increase their WW bonus -- land, honor, credits, etc -- by 10%. This is capped at a WW bonus that is 50% larger than the baseline bonus.
Wars and wins: Finally the WW bonus will scale with kingdom size under 20 provinces to reduce the potential for abuse with kingdoms that remain intentionally small in the number of provinces.
Wars and wins: The War Win bonus will also include a provision of additional land to every province's individual explore pool in both kingdoms, this is mainly aimed at helping provinces that are destroyed in war to have a chance to grow back to a functional size.
Wars and wins: Exploration during End Of War Cease-Fire will have reduced cost penalties (from 500% to 250% of normal cost).
Explore Penalty - Kingdoms smaller than 10 provinces will see an increased explore penalty.
Kingdom Rituals: KRs are a new mechanic that serves as a kingdom-wide bonus.
Kingdom Rituals: The Monarch or Steward will select one of 3 rituals the kingdom will begin (similar to the starting of a dragon)
Kingdom Rituals: To complete the ritual the Kingdom must cast a new 'ritual spell' 100 times within 48 hours of the ritual being started
Kingdom Rituals: The ritual spell will have a very expensive rune casting cost; and have a difficulty similar to the most difficult self spell
Kingdom Rituals: A successful KR will last for 120 hours
Kingdom Rituals: Only one KR can be active, another KR can be started before the active KR ends, very similar to Dragons. Once the KR is completed, the previous KR will be replaced
Kingdom Rituals: All users will have a KR page; on this page only you will have the KR spell available to help initiate the KR
Kingdom Rituals: The KR page will also display various information such as: current KR status (type and strength), whether a new ritual is being cast, how many more successful casts are necessary
Kingdom Rituals: For enemies: an active KR will be displayed via Spy on Throne, where you will see which KR is active and current strength
Kingdom Rituals: There are three kinds of KRs, we do not yet have names for them, and the numbers are likely to change drastically:
- 1) Barrier - Increases defensive TPA and WPA by 25%; reduces gains via attacks against the kingdom by 10% (similar to Guard Stations); +10% DME
- 2) Affluent (WAR ONLY) - Increases income by 25%, Birth Rate by 20%, and draft speed by 25%
- 3) Onslaught - Increases OME by 10% and enemy casualties on your offensive attacks by 15%
Note: The Prosperity KR can be initiated and completed at any time regardless of your stance (relations) however, if it is active and you are NOT in war you will receive no effects from it.
Spells: Inspire Army is no longer a baseline spell, it is being replaced by a Paladin-only spell called Paladin's Inspiration and has ~25% increased effects (low difficulty;moderate/high duration)
Spells: Paradise will still consume explore pool, will be available only to Mystic or Rogue personality (Not Faery)
Spells: Scientific Insights (Paladin Only) - This spell will increase the science effectiveness of target province by +10% (moderate difficulty/short duration)
Spells: Illuminate Shadows (Paladin Only) - Provide target with -20% damage from thievery operations (moderate/high difficulty;moderate duration)
Spells: Wrathful Smite (Paladin Only) - Attacks against province while this spell is active will result in higher casualties for the attacker (moderate difficulty;low/moderate duration)
Spells: Divine Shield (Paladin Only) - Increase magic defense of target (will stack with Magic Shield;low/moderate difficulty;moderate duration)
Spells: Magic Ward (Unf Only) (Paladin Only) - Increase target's spell cost in runes by 25% for duration (moderate difficulty)
Spells: Barrier of Integrity (Unf Only) (Paladin Only) - Stops all drafting that would normally take place in target province (moderate/high difficulty;very short duration)

Age 71

Science: Scientist Recruit rank reduced from 6 hours to 3 hours
Science: Scientist Spawn rate lowered slightly
Science: Food Science will now be Production Science, and it will increase both Food and Rune production
Science: Production Science maximum will be 120%, down from 200%
Science: Magic Science will no longer increase Wizard Production
Science: Approximately +50% Scientists will be required to reach maximum effects (We want there to be a strategic choice as to what science effects you have by reducing the spawn rate & increasing required scientists to reach max)
Spells: Revelation will increase scientist spawn rate by 30%, down from 100%
Spells: Revelation duration will be lowered
Spells: Fanaticism was modifying attack gains by -10% this has been removed
Spells: Blood Lust will provide +10% Offensive Military Efficiency & +15% Higher Military Losses for the caster & +10% Military Losses for the enemy
Wars and wins: Anonymity will no longer destroy honor during war
Wars and wins: The Raze attack's damage while in war has been increased
Wars and wins: The attack gains formula has been adjusted slightly to discourage bottom-feeding and reduce the penalties for top-feeding
Wars and wins: The in-war attack gains formula has also been adjusted to increase minimum gains in both directions, with a larger increase for attacking larger targets
Wars and wins: The War Win bonus choice of 'Land' or 'Honor' will be removed. All War Wins will yield a single bonus, which will be an increased amount of both Land and Honor. Similar to the minimum land bonus, a minimum honor bonus will also be added.
Wars and wins: Immediately upon entering End of War Cease-Fire any provinces affected by plague will have it removed instantly.
Wars and wins: Upon entering End of War Cease-Fire, the losing kingdom will receive 50% of their land as free building credits, while the winning kingdom will receive 150% of their land as free building credits. We would like to stimulate the ability for both kingdoms to recover from war such that both the losing kingdom has a better chance at coming out of war recovered and ready to fight again and more importantly, the winning kingdom has an opportunity to defend their land better upon exiting war.
Bugs: We have fixed a few discrepencies we found in the code that had not been brought to the attention of previous owners. The term bug may not be accurate in that the code was not 'wrong' except that the game was not working as documented. Such fixes include:
Bugs: Aggressive stance military casualties was affecting both sides, instead of only the Aggressive kingdom

Intel Store: We will add a Intel repository for players to store basic information on a province, such as defense and active ops on them with duration remaining. Intel will disappear after 24 hours unless its updated. You can see this information in a tab on the kingdom page of your enemy.

Province target finder: We will incorporate a province filter. Players can select all or particular races to view and the game will automatically display the 10 closest provinces both larger and smaller than your province. The data is collected from the games charts, which will now update every 2 hours. You can see this information in a tab on your war room. The target finder will not be online until all islands are visible.

Age 57

In War the minimum gains will be reduced by 50%

Attack times in the War Room will be displayed in a more understandable format and with greater accuracy

Players will be able to choose to extend or reduce their attack times to allow greater schedule flexibility.

The modified gains etc will be derived from the modification in attack time and will also be displayed. You can see a pic of the war room here

Age 56

The explore formula now additionally relates to the size of provinces in a kingdom
Paradise will remove acres from the explore pool, which will now grow 5 times faster (i.e 100 acres an hour) and also decay .5% an hour. This decay will not occur during war or end of war ceasefire.
Winning a war and selecting land as a reward will grant a minimum of 5k acres to the kingdom.

The Anonymity spell has been modified. This spell will result in minus attack gains rather than additional attack time. Apart from this the spell works as before.
Honor phase-in at age start has had the amount per tick doubled and the overall time halved.

Age 55

Specialists now defend and attack at 4 points respectively.
The explore formula is revised. It is now significantly cheaper to explore at smaller sizes compared to both previous ages.
The reduced gains protection afforded to smaller kingdom when attacked by larger kingdoms will be removed when the smaller kingdom reaches 50 points on the meter.
Towards a similar end, when both kingdom reach max hostility the option to declare will appear regardless of the kingdoms networth.
Winning a war will not grant any honor taken from your opponents honor pool. Monarchs will instead be able to set a kingdom reward for winning wars, this reward will be honor or land and will be a combination based on both kingdoms relevant resources.
Intra kingdom hits will remove some honor from the attacked province.
Attacks in war will not take extra acres from the exploration pool.

Plunder, Learn, Massacre and Raze are now worth 2 points on the meter
The war declaration range for kingdoms will be changed to 25% smaller or 33% larger
