Age 113 — Age of Merry Mayhems

• Forum Source: Final Changes - Age 113
• WoL Age 113 Open: 9 November
• WoL Age 113 Start: 13 November @ 18:00 GMT
• WoL Age 113 End: TBD

The bells are ringing. The razes are singing.

The war drums jingle, the soldiers jangle, and somewhere in the distance… someone’s setting fire to an orc's stables.

The Age of Merry Mayhem has arrived — where wars meet with large amounts of ale, and no one’s entirely sober. Between flying avians, heavily bearded dwarves mistaken for Santa, and over-eager generals yelling “just one more massacre before dinner!”, Utopia plunges into the most wonderful time of the year.

Be quick, be bold, and for goodness’ sake — don’t spill your warm cider on the war map.

Let the festive carnage begin.

Festive Boost Week (Global Rotating Buff)

Each day, between 24 Dec – 1 Jan, one global modifier from a short hidden list will apply to everyone.

Core Mechanics & Modifications

Unique Abilities (UA)

• Cooldowns reduced to 23 Days (was 24).
• Any activated ability with a duration of 1 Day now lasts 2 Days.

• Any Unique Ability that provides a bonus to the province as a result of a successful attack:

• If the attacker is at war, the target must be in the kingdom they are at war with for the ability bonus to trigger.

• Bonuses cannot stack — if triggered again, the duration simply renews (e.g., 3 Days left on +Sabotage Damage → now 6 Days left, not double the bonus).
• Keep in mind the definition of “Successful Attack.”
• These bonuses appear on your Throne page, similar to spells, with a countdown timer.
• Enemies viewing your SoT/CB can also see these active bonuses.

War Declarations

• When attempting to declare war against a Kingdom that is less networth than your Kingdom, the target Kingdom must be considered in-range for both land and net worth to be a war candidate
