General Mechanics
- Attacks no longer convert Specialists to Elite units.
- Wizards killed on Massacre Attack increased by ~20%. Thieves killed reduced by ~12%.
- Explore Pool decay increased to .2% (1500 natural growth cap).
- EoWCF Explore costs increased from 500% to 600% (from 250% to 300% under Median).
- Defensive Force Ceasefire removed.
- Offensive FCF is available
- After 24 ticks with no combat attacks or dragon sent
- After 24 ticks of the date the hostility meter reached Hostile
- Only if you are not in war (including End of War CeaseFire)
- Only if the target is not in war (including End of War CeaseFire)
- The 24 tick waiting period will not begin until EoWCF concludes
- Maximum Hostility Meter reduced from 225 to 180 points.
- Hostility Meter based Relations throttling is being reintroduced. For every 1 point of hostility meter variance over 90 will result in:
- a reduction in Gains for the Kingdom with the higher Meter, this will scale linearly from 0 at a 90 point variance up to -75% gains at 180 point variance; and
- reduced Defensive Military Casualties for the Kingdom with the lower Meter, scaling in the same way from 90 point variance to 180 point variance with military casualties (on defense) reduced linearly from 0% to -50%
- A Relative Kingdom Networth (RKNW) gains factor is being reintroduced. For targets in a Kingdom with networth less than 50% your own Kingdom NW gains will be reduced by 20%. This will be a linear scale down to 0% gains reduced at 90% relative Kingdom Networth. Gains will not be affected over 90%.
- The existing War Points system is being removed. A war win will give 1 point, no other points are given. The war win chart will simply list Kingdoms based on the amount of wins they have accumulated.
- Your Kingdom Page will contain a link to a summarized history of the Kingdom's War victories.
- Wars may end automatically at 48 ticks, reduced from 72 ticks.
- Honor Gains in War increased by ~20% for Attacks, Spells and Thievery Operations
- Minimum Gains in War being increased from ~3.5% to ~4% (+15%)
- War rewards will be changed as follows:
- Land awarded at the conclusion of war to the winning Kingdom is now equal to 10% of the losing Kingdom's total Acres after withdrawal which will include the acres returned from armies (10% will be subtracted from each province in the losing Kingdom, distributed evenly to the winner, this will not be modified by the War Tier Bonus).
- Honor awarded at the conclusion of war to the winning Kingdom is now equal to 5% of the losing Kingdom's total Honor at withdrawal (5% will be subtracted from each province in the losing Kingdom, distributed evenly to the winner, this will not modified by the War Tier Bonus)
- There will be an additional amount of honor generated and awarded to the winner. This has a minimum amount of 2,500 with no maximum (This will be modified by the War Tier Bonus)
- The winning Kingdom gains additional Explore Pool, Building and Specialist Credits and Science Books modified by War Tier Bonus- War Tier Bonus is now equal to number of Wars won * 5%; maximum 50%. For example, a Kingdom with 5 War Wins is on Tier 5 => 5 Wins * 5% each win = +25% bonus
Buildings
- Homes - Birth Rate will no longer increase by a %, instead there will be a flat rate of 0.5 for each acre of Homes
- Every 2 acres of homes will produce 1 peasant
- This WILL be modified by Chastity

- Amnesia and Learn attacks during war will remove books temporarily. These books will return evenly over time, similar to the way Nightmare currently works on Military, except Science book recovery will take place over 24 ticks
- Learn Attack during War damage increased significantly (base book removal is ~24% before other factors)
- Amnesia base book removal is ~5.5%
- Learn Attack outside of War base Gains reduced from 3% of allocated books to 2% of allocated books
- Scientist Generation per tick increased from 1.5% to 2%
- Scientist Books per tick reduced from 100/120/140/160 to 70/80/90/100 respectively
