Coming soon - Capture The Flag Tournament!

Coming soon - Capture The Flag Tournament!

Capture Rival Coalitions' Flags To Earn Rewards!

Defend Your Own Flag For Bigger Bonuses!


Archon!


A very special Event is coming soon – the Capture the Flag Tournament!


Your Coalition must strive to capture as many Flags from your rivals as possible. To capture flags, you must successfully attack rival Coalition Capitals, with each Flag captured yielding a certain number of Tournament Points. The more Flags your Coalition collects, the more Points you will earn.


To participate in the Tournament, your Coalition must have a Capital of Level 3 or higher (when the Tournament begins), which must have been constructed at least 24 hours prior to the start of the Tournament. If your Coalition does not yet have a Capital, talk to your Hegemon immediately! It should also be noted that Coalitions in the process of being dismissed are not able to take part in the Tournament.


All Coalitions shall be divided into Leagues according to their positions in the Rankings when the Tournament starts. Each Coalition shall receive a Flag, which will be located at their Capital. The value of a Coalition’s Flag (in Tournament Points) depends on the League of the Coalition that owns it.


At the end of the Tournament, the Top 10 Coalitions in each League shall each be rewarded with valuable bonuses - Buffs and Debuffs! Buffs have a positive effect on your Coalition, whereas Debuffs are negative Effects that can be assigned to rival Coalitions.


Furthermore, the Top 3 Coalitions in each League will receive a special Protection Reward, which limits the amount of Debuffs that can be assigned to them. Coalitions that finish in first place in their Leagues will win the most powerful Protection Reward, guaranteeing them total immunity from Debuffs!


Prepare your army for the fight of their lives, Archon! There are Battles to be won and Flags to be claimed!

Exactly what are buffs and debuffs?

Just seems another forced participation tournament, where players will steam in to capitals without bothering to consider the gain/loss ratio of rewards.

Buffs are positiv bonuses(On example +5 raids for all in 7 days)and debuffs are negativ bonuses(Example: You can send -10% strenght debuff to your opponent league , still havent seen this debuff so its gonna be interesting). If you save your flag, you will probably get buff/debuff.. if you want more buffs and debuffs then you need to take more flags and be in Top3.

Thanks.


I don't know how it completely functions, but I see sister coals abusing this somehow by organising set capital hits to trade flags.

That's an interesting feature got to admit! Capitals are really important giving all those discipline bonuses so they also need to be well defended if you want to keep your flag. That tournament will spice things up! Can't wait for it!

Send all your hits out so they land just after the tiurny starts and swarm the map.


Bam ! Game over in under 8 minutes. You win. Big league will take all while no tiers are really being honored. 


That is how it went down on stormfall.

And they still do it here after that.  

Hegemons could always relocate capital just before tournament begins, to mess up chancers trying to book their spot in advance, but that will cost 5k drac for capital relocation pool.

I'm sure it will be abused by sister coals setting up hits for flags. Do plarium even think of the consequences or do they just add stuff hoping to rake in more cash...

Each new Tournament is analyzed and balanced before the launch. 

If after the Tournament you'll have some feedback to share, or some suggestions on improvements, I'll gladly pass them to our devs.

Why you people keep deleting my posts?


You don't even explain why you do it... It is not offensive, I didn't brake any rules, I just pointed my opinion. 


It is obvious that you only allow posts from players that celebrate your copy/paste improvements... Well guess what? There are some of us that don't like everything you put in the game, and we have every right to say so...


If you want to manage an anarchistic forum let me know, so ill get the hell out of here.


dont like it (because it is a copy/paste update) and it will be abused like many things so far... so go ahead and delete my post again...

a question: 

coalition A hits capital of coalition B and gets a flag

then

Coalition C  hits capital of coalition B.

Will be there a flag won for Coalition C?

I am a bit troubled with it, please explain to me.


Coalition A empty their capital (lets say it stays with 1m def ..). Coal B attacks their capital and vice versa....This can get become a chain with 50more coals...Some coalitions got 'clans' who does that even during Coal downgrade tours...

Yes Archon Coalition C will get a flag since from my understanding with every capital being downgraded the coalition that downgrades it will get a flag.

If your Capital gets downgraded, you will receive a 24h protection against downgrades. However, you can still be attacked.

I don't see this going anywhere, except for the coals that empty out there capitals to support their allied coals.  

Other wise you are looking at coals sacrificing millions of troops to capture a flag?  I don't see this being worth the buffs or debuffs.

Now if they did this and offered 90% of the troops lost, a free revive or individual rewards in addition to the debuffs.  Then they may have some participation.

Quick question on the flags, if a capital already has 10 other flags and you successfully attack it, do you get all of the flags that the other capital has already captured?


Seems likely, but I just want to make sure.

Hi! No, you won't get all 10 Flags. You'll get only some part of them.
