Age of Champions
Glory Favours the Bold
In the twilight of the night, a new dawn rises.
The Age of Champions is upon us — where bravery is rewarded, growth is honoured, and coordination reigns supreme.
The days of playing it safe are over. Now, every decision — from the battlefield to the build queue — shapes your legend. Whether you stand tall as a full 25-strong war machine, a defiant underdog punching above its weight, or a kingdom forging greatness through sheer expansion, this age remembers courage.
Your banner is more than a flag — it’s a challenge to the world: We came to conquer. Come and play Utopia.
Change summary
- War Reward Scaling: Kingdoms earn more for full rosters, less for underfilled ones.
- New Honorable Mentions: Iron Sword, Warlord’s Banner, and Gauntlet Crown celebrate war participation, success, and bravery.
- Land-Based Growth Rewards (Kingdom & Individual): Strategic expansion grants buffs and titles to reward coordination and ambition.
- Force Ceasefire Rework: Stops griefing from out-of-range aggressors during active wars.
- Aggressive Stance Buffed: A more viable tactical option to motivate and reward risk and aggression.
- Relations Rework: Hostility meters now persist until war or ceasefire.
Goal of Changes
Why These Changes?
In recent ages, we’ve seen clear trends:
- Most kingdoms stop short of 25 players, favouring easier coordination.
- War remains dominant, but those without secure matches fall behind.
- Only one or two kingdoms typically pursue growth with real intent.
WThe Age of Champions rebalance aims to:
- Encourage full kingdom coordination with meaningful war rewards.
- Recognise different paths to greatness — war, growth, honour, individual growth
Mechanics and Modifications
New Honorable Mentions
Not all victories are about raw size or stats. These special honours recognise kingdoms that chose challenge, resilience, and cohesion. While not traditional crowns, they represent exceptional performance worthy of recognition.
Iron Sword
Awarded to the kingdom that fought the most wars while maintaining 24 provinces since tick 0.
Reward: Free Hostility Meter Credit
Warlord’s Banner
Awarded to the kingdom with the most war victories while holding 25 provinces since tick 0.
Reward: Kingdom Gold
Gauntlet Crown
Awarded to smaller size kingdoms with the most war wins against 25-province kingdoms.
Reward: Kingdom Gold
War Reward Scaling – The Power of Numbers
To encourage fully filled kingdoms — and reduce the incentive to stay small — war rewards will now scale based on kingdom size at the time of war declaration.

Land-Based Growth Rewards
For the first time, expanding your kingdom earns meaningful milestones. These apply to all provinces in your kingdom and will be removed if you fall below the set thresholds:

Land-Based Growth Rewards - Individual
A province that reaches the land threshold while the kingdom has 24 or 25 provinces unlocks its Feat.
- The Feat’s buff is permanent as long as
- the province stays at or above the threshold and
- The kingdom roster stays ≥ 24 provinces.
Conditions are only granted and maintained by staying above the thresholds.

Force Cease-Fire Changes
To protect kingdoms actively engaged in war from external griefing, we’re updating the Force Ceasefire system:
