Significance of the Hostility Meter

When a party hits 15 points they become Unfriendly to the Kingdom which they hit/opped. Hostile status requires 30 points to achieve.

If both Kingdoms reach Hostile relations, the kingdom with fewer meter points may declare war. When 90 points are reached by both Kingdoms, either one can declare.

On the first of each Utopian Month, both hostility meters decay by one fifth (20%) or 3 points, whichever is greater.

Attacks, Spells, Ops and How they Move the Meter

Different successful attack types, spells and thievery operations add to the hostility meter at varying levels of intensity. The attacks add to the meter according to the figures given below.

Traditional Marches, Conquests, Razes, Plunders, Massacres, Learns

All these attacks add 3 points to the hostility meter per hit.

Ambushes and Bounces

Ambushes add 1.5 points to the meter.
Bounces will affect the meter based on offense vs defense sent (i.e. a failed attack with greater than 75% offense sent would move the meter equivalent to 50% of a successful Traditional March).

Dragons

Dragons add 30 points to the hostility meter.
