General Rules for Conquest

Hey Tyrantlovers,

In order to do conquest successfully some general guidelines need to be followed.

1. Pick one or two slots and make sure you tell everyone on the faction chat. Don’t go attacking every slot you see. Focus and conquer.

2. After 2 consecutive losses you either a) completely change the deck you are using; or b) abandon the slot. Spend your precious STAM fighting our opponent, not your ego.

3. In the case that you saw a CQ going but you have to leave soon and you get the brilliant idea to start attacking many slots to use your stam, you can. Just make sure you only attack slots with FULL HEALTH.

4. Never attempt to perform Last Kill Shots. This means that if someone is working on a tile don't be the dick that wants to do the final kill. By doing that you will probably take 20 stam from your comrade as it's very likely that he will be fighting the slot the same time you are (in addition that you don´t even know what's in there!). Your mighty deck might be overrun by a nooby fear deck and you will have problems to explain everyone why tha hell did you heal a dead slot. Don't perform Last Kill Shots.

Let's get those tiles!!!!!!

Two surveys regarding tiles and promotions

Update (13/05/2013)

It seems the polls were not working properly so I created some new ones. Please vote again! (Sorry guys!)



Hey Tyrantlovers,

I added two main surveys for you guys to answer on the right. The first one asks whether you would like to start taking more tiles or if you would prefer to wait until we are lv. 14.

The second poll asks whether you would want inactive officers and warmasters to be demoted to make room for new ones.

Depending on the answers we get we will proceed so accordingly!!!

Oh and of course...

Hey you!



Yes you! Join Paradox!

Conquest Times

Hey Tyrantlovers,

The faction has set a tentative official time for conquests on SUNDAYS. I am converting this time to all the countries that have visited this blog so far:

 



Belgrade 22:00                                              London: 21:00                                                  D.C. 16:00

 







 Copenhagen 22:00                                      Abu Dhabi: 00:00                                         Brasilia: 17:00

 



 



 Berlin 22:00                                                                                                                      Ottawa: 16:00 

 

 

 As I said, this time is still tentative and will be discussed further. We are still trying to accomodate everyone!

Conquest Updates

This is straight from the developers guys! This is how the additional rules for conquest will be once the board is reset:

In addition to the map reset, the following changes to Conquest will be happening.
-The map size is increasing
-Tiles have different defense deck cap based on their CR rating. 1 CR: 10-20 decks. 2 CR: 30 decks. 3 CR: 35 decks. 5 CR: 50 decks. The central tile will have a higher cap, 60 decks, to make it exceptionally hard to assault.
-Each Faction can store up to 6 attacks and can attack as long as they are not currently in a Conquest. Attacks recharge once every 4 hours.
-Each Faction can only be attacked 10x per day. This will help prevent gang-attacks. This 10x limit is only incremented if the attacking faction controls a tile already.
-Keep the 31 tile limit.
-Keep stamina at 300
-Allow diagonal attacks.
-Allow factions to attack anywhere from the edge to 5 tiles in.
-Can only abandon 1 tile per day
-Lose 1 FP for each failed attack.
-FP gain for taking over a tile and loss for losing a tile will be the same for every conquest.
We are aiming to release and reset next Thursday 4/11 unless some unforeseen circumstances forces us otherwise. Included in this update will be a wave of bug fixes as well as new promo cards and upgrades.
EDIT: We are making these additional changes. Still plan on releasing Thursday.
- The center tile will have a cap of 60 slots instead of the initially proposed 70
- We are changing Conquest Tokens into a more generic “Faction Token” – allowing them to also be awarded from participation in classic Faction Wars. Every day you will be able to claim Faction Tokens and earn the greater of your Conquest or Faction War rewards. This will allow factions to participate in whichever feature they prefer , Faction Wars or Conquest, without requiring both.
