Features:

  • It is now possible to rearrange the buildings in your village. Swapping buildings once costs 400 Sesterce.
  • Roman Camps and Patrols are losing strength if the player fights against them and loses. The amount of strength lost depends on the player’s attacking strength. This change makes losing a fight on the village map less of an issue.

At the end of the tournament players will be rewarded according to their rank.Currently there are three rank tiers. Gold, Silver and Bronze.
