Hey Community,
In the next update you'll receive the following features:
- With this update we will implement a lot of technical preparations for a new monthly event
- This event is going to start within the next few weeks
- In this event you will be able to explore a totally new area and play for some very valuable treasures
- More detailed information and some insights will follow shortly
- The cooldown following a victorious attack on a robber baron castle until you can attack again can now be skipped with the help of rubies
- The price is based on the strength of the robber baron castles, as well as on the remaining duration of the cooldown
- In lower levels the skipping costs are low, so that everyone is easily able to use this feature and thus has the chance to level up robber baron castles quicker
- Prices increase according to the robber baron castle´s level
- The duration of the normal cooldown remains 3 hours and is untouched
- This function is supposed to especially help players who have just moved their castle, so that levelling up the surrounding castles will be easier
- This function works with robber baron castles and with towers in the other kingdoms, but not with other players, events and such
- There will be a new feast that you can start with rubies. It's very strong, yet has a short duration. The Aristocratic banquet will, nevertheless, remain the best feast with the highest bonus.
- When recruiting, you can double the amount of troops in your recruitment slot one more time if you please
Some bugs have also been fixed with this update.
As always, you can let us know what you think about the update and ask any further questions you might have in the Discussion Thread! We will announce exactly when the update will take place at a future date.
Regards,
Your Empire Team.
