Events

There are different types of events. There are seasonal events where players compete, weekly events that are non competitive, and travelers that have special trades with players. Traveler

Each day of the week has a specific traveler that comes every week. On Sundays there is always a special traveler that is different every week. Players can trade resources for troops, trinkets, or buffs.

These are mini competitions or tournaments. They happen once a month and last for 3-4 days. Each one will be different. Players will try to get the highest amount of resource collection, the most spread out cities, burn the most towns, craft the most craftables, find the most trinkets, etc. Some seasonal events might involve groups of players competing against each other.

Every week there is a different rotation of weekly events. These are not competitive against other players. Events will try to cover a range of difficulties so all types of players can benefit from events. Examples of weekly events include sending troops to fight a monster, sending troops to travel to a specific location, chase down a spy to get information, or small text based games or riddles.
