Simplified explanation on Version 3.0

**********DISCLAIMER*********
this is all MY opinions on this. This may not be exactly what occurs In the update. I\'m taking what I read about it and applying it. Please do not be angry with me if some of this turns out to be false. 


With the new update coming close, I\'m sure all of you are excited. I\'ve read up about it, and it seems somewhat complicated, so in this letter I will try to explain it as easily as I can. (this my be a long letter ) 

I. Alright, so the main part of the update is the "Mines". From what I\'ve read, individual players DO NOT occupy the mines, but the "alliance army" (I\'ll discuss that later) will. An alliance may only own one mine at any given time. There will only be 20 mines in the whole server, ranging from levels 1-5. Level 5 mines are more prominent than level 1-4 mines.  The mines will have an output/hour of prestige for the ALLIANCE (I\'ll also discuss this later). After approx. 96 hours of owning a mine, it will stop purporting prestige and therefore become useless until resigned. 

II. alliance army
Now, due to there being the issue of only being able to occupy a mine by the alliance, and not an individual, an alliance army is needed. I\'m not 100% sure about this, but I think that the alliance leader and vices will have access to an alliance "city" where basically they\'d build up the alliance army. Alliance members will be able to donate resources, money, and coins to this "city" to use for the army. I do not believe you\'ll be able to donate troops. Also, when commanding with the alliance army ONLY the leader or vices may command (please lord, don\'t make me command ). However, any members in the alliance may watch the battle. 

III. Alliance leveling
Another new feature will be the alliance being able to "level up". The mine occupied will output prestige for the alliance to level up. As the alliance levels up it allows more population, resources, etc for the alliance city. 

I hope this cleared some things up

Any questions?  Feel free to ask me and I\'ll answer to the best of my ability.

Edit: feel free to spread this around on the servers, if you liked it . Just keep my name on it lol

It did say that were provisons for regular members to command in some situations, in a case where the vice or leader wasn't available, but that the vice/leader can take over the command at any time

Edit: or it think that's what it said. It wasn't very clear, lol

If other alliances havE armies as well would we be attacking those? Would there be a map of alliance cities? :S can't wait lawl

I'm not 100% sure, but if the alliance cities turn out to be true, then alliance armies may then be able to attack the alliance cities. I'm not sure.

I think that'd be confusing...another map full of alliance cities..will alliance level be displayed on lesderboards?

And how are we expected to find 20 mines in a 360k square server? :S

I'm assuming level will be shown on leaderboards. And I'm sure they wont be too hard to find, With 1,000's of players looking for one. It may be a day or two before one's found, though.

Okay. Only confusing part is if there will be another map with alliance cities and warping other alliances>.> will there then be a new leaderboard for highest prestige alliance AW style? >.>

Sounds to me like another cash grab like enhancement of items was. Remember how many people quit because of the enhancement ripoff nonsense? This is just more coins to buy to coin alliance cities, speed up alliance troops, enhancement items in alliance armies, buy treasure for alliance items, etc etc etc.

Cheers to yet another nail in the coffin of the game.

How about you fix existing holes and glitches that cost you money and ruin player experience?

It's way too early to tell how much coins will factor into this update. Even if they are a big factor there are many ways to get free coins.

That's true, I'm making a lot of assumptions. I'll reserve judgement until the release is out. As for free coins - it costs thousands of coins for full enhancement, so don't act like you can get enough "free" coins for that or hunt enough enhancement stones for it.

Haypi won't put enhancement stones on the market where people can save cash to buy them because they are too stupid to fix the treasure duplication glitch & they can't have their precious enhancement cash grab become subject to glitching like other treasures are.

Too bad you can already duplicate enhancement stones.......once again haypi security FTL
