Genesis Age 175 Changes

Genesis Round 175 is here!

This round is based on World of Legends Age 92 code with some additional Genesis specific changes to make Genesis unique from WoL, as well as for testing some new concepts or ideas that may or may not eventually transfer over to the World of Legends!

Please take a read through the mechanics changes so you're aware of some of the unique features.

This color indicates a new change for the current Round


Also be sure to look at the Race & Personality changes as they can be significantly different than World of Legends

Planned Schedule for the Round
Age Start: 08/26/2021 @ 23:00 GMT
Age End: 09/03/2021 @ 02:00 GMT

Important variances from WoL to note

• Paradise will only take 50% of acres that it generates from your explore pool

• Intra-Kingdom attacks will deal significantly more damage (double) and remove a minimum 50 acres
• Ambush will target only the land that was lost, not what the attacker received (due to acre generation)
• MAP (Multi-Attack Protection) awarded for attacks is reduced by 50% from that seen on WoL
• Stealth and Mana recovery is doubled (any race or personality mods will be doubled; for example base is 3% per tick which is now 6%, if a race mod says +2% per tick this will also be doubled meaning 4%, therefore a race which states +2% per tick will receive 3% base plus 2% = 5% => doubled to 10%)
• Base gains for a Traditional March increased from 12% to 15%
• Max Gains cap is 25% (up from 20% on WoL)
• Massacre damage to wizards has been significantly increased

• Acres are generated on Traditional Marches (20%)
• Acre generation is reduced in war (from 20% OOW to 5% In War)
• War range and declare mechanics are identical to World of Legends (85% * you < you < you / .85)
• War may be declared by either side when hostility points reach at least 14 on both meters (previously 20)
• Meter points required for Unfriendly will be 7
• Meter points required for Hostile will be 12
• Dragons will generate 8 hostility points
• Max hostile meter will be 25 points instead of 90

• Defect will not be available during war
• Beginner Protection is 12 ticks (in and out of war)

• Subdue Wizards will reduce the strength of wizards, similar to the way Amnesia works with science. Wizard Strength will be restored to 100% upon entering EoWCF
• Wizard strength is regained by 1.5% per tick over time while out of war
• Subdue Wizards displays how much strength has been removed from the enemy on each operation

• Thief train time will be the same as all military troops
  

[*]For clarity on some of the new Freak mods:

• 1 in 5 chance any attack BY a Freak will have a 15-35% increase in gains. These gains could push you OVER the potential max gain of 25%
• The +/- 5% mod replaces the 3.5% random factor that other provinces have with 5% instead
• The mod for t/m operations means that damage from any instant operation could range from 90-135%
  

Ritual Info

• Base casts required: 20
• 100% Efficiency casts: 30
• Abolish Ritual only requires 20 casts
• Rituals can be destroyed after 10 ticks
• Ritual will activate automatically in 36 ticks
• Duration is 36 ticks
  
• Overcasting will grant much larger effects than in WoL (overcasting will be more difficult than previous ages, for example: During Age 174 if you received 200% ritual effect from 100 casts, you may need 150 casts to receive that same 200% effect - Note: actual numbers will vary, this is just an example with no basis of the new variables in the formula!)
  
• Reduced Self Spell Mana Cost will NOT reduce mana cost for ritual
