- citybattle00.jpg (56.68KiB)Viewed 6558 times
There are 44 territories available for conquest. A level 1 territory have 2 places, Ancient Dragon City and Thousand Streams City. A level 2 territory have 4 places, 3 new player’s City and the Dream Searching Port. A level 3 territory may have 38 places. The map illustrates the location and accessibility of the territories. The higher the level of the territory the bigger the return for the clan.
Benefits of ruling a territory
A Clan can gain various advantages and awards from occupying cities.
Protection Money
Every week, the conquered territory gives fixed protection money to the ruling clan. The higher the level of the territory the bigger the ruling clan will get.
A clan can get 10,000,000 in in-game gold every week for a level 3 territory, 20,000,000 for level 2 and 30,000,000 for level 1.
Protection money is given to the head of the ruling clan every Friday noon.
A mail shall be sent to the head of the clan and once the head of the clan reads and accepts the mail, the amount shall be added to his character
Free Teleport
Members of the ruling clan shall pay no fee to teleport to the territory. (This is treated as a usage of the Teleport skill, with a 1 hour cooldown)
Players who are not part of the clan shall have to pay for teleportation services
Transfer skill has a cool down period.
Map ownership
Ruling clan shall have their name placed on the map details.
Every time a player hovers the mouse through the territory location, the name and logo of the clan shall appear

Territory Selection
Each clan can attack only one territory every week
New clans can only attack rank 3 territories.
If a clan is already occupying a territory they can only attack neighboring or adjacent territories.
Only players who are members of a clan before 4:00 PM on Monday (100 hours before the start of the first War Period) prior to the battle schedule are allowed to join the War.
In order to declare war upon a level 1 land, you must already own at least 3 territories and at least 1 of the territory must be directly adjacent to it. And if you already own a level 1 territory, you are not allowed to declare war upon another level 1 land.
(P/s: Even up till now, only a couple of guilds in the original china version have managed to conquer the level 1 land.)
Declaring War
In order to attack a territory, Clans must declare their intention for war at any City Battle NPC during the proper period every week.
No matter a territory is occupied or not, attacking a level 3 territory requires risk gold of at least 500,000;attacking a level 2 territory requires risk gold of at least 1,000,000, and attacking a level 1 territory requires risk gold of at least 2,000,000.
The bidding period begins every Wednesday at 7:00pm, and ends every Thursday at 7:00pm. GMT +8
Bidding for the right to attack a territory
If multiple Clans are attempting to attack the same territory, they must enter a bidding process throughout this period (i dont know what time is it but if admin know please edit this ^^) to determine which Clan will earn the right to attack a particular territory.
Bids made shortly before the deadline will increase the bidding period by 20 minutes.
These last minute bids can extend the bidding period in increments of 20 minutes only 4 times, or up to 8:20pm Thursday. The Bidding Period cannot be extended beyond that.
Rules governing the bidding process:
Increments to a previous bid must be at least 100,000 more than the current bid.
The maximum bid is 20 million. Any clan that bids this amount automatically wins the right to attack the territory this week.
The gold used to bid will immediately disappear from a player's inventory.
Bids made to the City Battle NPC are locked and cannot be used by the player
If there is only one bid to conquer a territory by Thursday 7:00 PM, then the right to attack the territory is automatically given to the sole bid.
A system prompt shall be sent once the bidding ends at 8:20 PM
System shall also send out the list of all the war schedules to the entire server
Schedule shall follow the following format:
1 ( Territory Name)
Clan Name ( Attacking)
Clan Name (Defending)
Schedule (which territory and what time) (War Time)
2 ( Territory Name)
Clan Name ( Attacking)
Clan Name (Defending)
Schedule (which territory and what time) (War Time)
3 ( Territory Name)
Clan Name ( Attacking)
Clan Name (Defending)
Schedule (which territory and what time) (War Time)
After the Bidding Period
After the bidding period has ended, the game will broadcast an automatic message to all players announcing the attack schedule and clans involved. Furthermore, losing bids will be returned to the clan masters.
Clans that lose the bidding process will receive their full amount of gold via in-game mail.
Clans that win the bidding process will need to win the City Battle as well to receive a refund.
Bidding refunds after a City Battle
Clans that win the bidding process have the opportunity to receive a significant refund of the amount of gold they used to win the bid. This refund will only occur after the City Battle Schedule of Friday to Sunday every week, and will be automatically sent to the Clan master via in-game mail. The details of the different refunds are listed here.
Clans that win the bidding process but lose the City Battle will receive no refund.
Clans that disband after bidding, or before receiving a refund, will receive no refund.
Clans that win a City Battle for an unoccupied territory will receive a 90% refund.
Clans that win a City Battle for an occupied territory will receive a refund based on these factors:
Number of Clan Members that logged into the game for 1 week prior to the initial bid.
The average level of those active Clan Members.
