nother exciting month has passed, bringing all new discoveries to the Kingdom! A bunch of hip, young scientists recently graduated from the local Academy, bringing some fresh new research ideas to the table, making them widely available to everyone for a minimal cost. Remarkably, some recent expeditions also revealed that the miscreant Robber Barons were holding some brave (well, mostly) Heroes captive. As a reward for liberating them from their captors, we can bring them into our armies and force, ahem, allow them to lead our troops! Besides, if they don't perform we can always sell them back....think of it as a friendly transfer of talent!




he World of Empire is full of colourful characters, devious villains and jolly competitions! With every passing month, friends and enemies, new and old, near and far pay your Kingdom a visit. Whether they're asking for your assistance, or trying to break down your castle walls and rustle up some mayhem, there's nothing quite like the thrill of our Events!

In this section we'll fly the banners and sound the horns for the bravest warriors in all the Empire,showing you just how well everyone did in our monthly events; <img src="http://abload.de/img/stone_statuereverseb9jrt.png&quot; align="left"><img src="http://abload.de/img/stone_statuegxs1s.png&quot; align="right"> The Storm Islands and the Invasion of the Foreign Empire, with more to follow as epic battles unfold across the world.

This past month, the Foreign Empire invaded our servers, letting our brave warriors prove themselves as the superior fighters! It's too early to predict what the tide of war will bring in the Storm Islands, so we want to take this time to wish you all the best of luck in battle! See you in the next issue... Storm Lord.




ou play, you fight, you win and you lose. You reach some personal goals and achieve great results for yourselves and your alliances.
Every day million of players recruit strong armies, repair damage caused by epic battles, share resources and level up. We decided to share with you some global achievements that the Empire world experienced last month:

Every day stats:

• In this last month we welcomed 3,712 Lords to the glorious level 70 and they are now ready to become Empire Legends.
  
• March was a very hot month, temperatures increasing highly in the Kingdom. Maybe this was caused by the 116,451 wars declared during this time?
• Empire has a very dynamic labour market too, as proven by the 54,805,678 hirings for the position of Two handed sword and the 80,651,490 hirings of Veteran Maceman. Those skinny defenders be warned!
• On the scientific side, it was a very prolific month for the Lords of Empire, with 4,078,222 researches started, offering improvements on both the military and economic side. Studying is important kids!
• Sometimes your sword is the wisest diplomatic argument, that seems to be proven by the 14,065,471 PvP battles happened in March, with a defender success rate of 38%
• Also our healthcare system got a boost in March, with 393,153,008 soldiers cured successfully from lethal wounds. Well done Doc.

Other info:

• The Foreign Empire struck once again in March (and one onslaught is still ongoing). The total amount of glory points collected was 3,295,653,572

n the next pages you will have the chance to take a look at some art produced directly by our central art laboratory, but let's first focus on those rare hidden masterpieces that are prepared when swords are swapped for pencils and paintbrushes. Our relic hunter found this while looking around the kingdom's hidden spots, the inscription in the back recalls the name of a great artist of our Community: Graycat3

So as this month's caption contest draws to an end, we would like to thank every single one of you for getting involved.

That's why we would like to congratulate both TheDaftBadger & Manatee for creating such a great combined caption!



So, what is that awesome prize we promised? Well we would like to offer you two lucky winners 7,500 rubies and 30 Wheel of Fortune tickets each!
