Hesitation is Defeat

In the stillness before battle, the air quivers with anticipation.

The Age of the First Strike has dawned — where initiative is power, and the fastest blades draw the deepest blood.

Hesitation is defeat. The opening move can shatter a kingdom’s resolve, and the right strike at the right time can turn the tide before the enemy knows they’ve lost.

Instant returns, calculated gambits, and perfectly timed activations will define the legends of this age.

Whether you surge forward with a disciplined war machine, unleash lightning raids, or gamble everything on a single decisive strike, one truth remains:

The swift will carve their names into history, and the slow will be forgotten.

Your kingdom’s war drums are beating.

The First Strike is yours — take it.

• Hostile: +10% Gains, –12% Military Casualties, +15% WPA/TPA, –6% Attack Time, +5% OME. Access to Unfriendly T/M ops against Target Kingdom Only

Magic Ward → Removed. Tornado → Rune cost –20%, Difficulty –35%. Moved to Hostile: Nightmares, Land Lust, Abolish Ritual, Fireball, Fool’s Gold, Lightning Strike, Mystic Vortex, Nightfall, Sloth, Steal War Horses, Assassinate Wizards, Greater Arson, Nightstrike.

System Changes

Relative KD NW factor protection slightly increased. Stances removed. Provinces created during war = 72h BP, 0 soldiers/credits. Honor OME increased from 1% → +2% per level. Explore cost formula: Land lost in combat reintroduced.

Miscellaneous

Province death removes Mentor link. Council History now tracks: Ritual casts, Aid sent/received, attack details, T/M ops, activity bonuses.

Bug Fixes

Adjusted land loss mechanics: When attacked, land taken will no longer result in scenarios where all built acres are removed, leaving only acres under construction. This ensures more consistent and fair outcomes when provinces are hit.
