I see each of the enemies have factions like ours, with similar heroes (only uglier).
Does the faction resistance work against their factions? |
Does the faction resistance work against their factions?
I think Yes |
A thousand apologies for the delay, and a brief FAQ:
Q. What is going on exactly?
A. Military clans that have control over territories with facilities are getting attacked every now and then, every day, by an underground force of the Survilurgs, an alliance of factions much like our Empire, very unfriendly towards us. Should a clan yield to their attacks, they seize control of that clan's facility, which may then be contended by all military clans. The victorious clan (the one with most victories over the contending period) captures that facility for their control.
Q. Any limits on the amount of trios from one MC?
A. When a facility is attacked by the Survilurgs, up to 7 trios may participate in defense. When an MC contests a facility lost by another clan, any amount of trios may participate in attacks.
Q. What about AP limits?
A. There is a minimal AP threshold for every battle, however, battling in minAP will become rather hard soon. Should you not have equipment worth enough AP equipped, you will get a notification about it on the formation page.
Q. Any special page where I could see info about facility contending and tally-up?
A. https://www.lordswm.com/mwlog.php
Q. Where and how can I set the "protection time" when my clan's facilities will not be attacked?
A. Only clan leader and deputy can preset the time on the clan settings page. Note that there is a cooldown time for changing this period.
Q. How soon will the protection time change?
A. In 2 hours after submitting the desired changes.
Q. Does dynamic balancing apply?
A. It does. Losses result in lowering the difficulty of the next Survilurgs battlement, while victories will strengthen them for any particular player character.
Q. Does FR work in event combat?
A. Yes. Faction resistance generally works in any combats where npc armies are commanded by heroes.
Q. How about faction potion?
A. Faction potion only has effect when there is a player character with higher skill level in that faction. It will have effect in event combats when a member of your party is playing your faction and has higher level.
Q. And what about GG drink (+1 luck)?
A. It has effect.
Q. Do I need to be in a specific location, or should I just wait to get to vanguard formation?
A. To protect your subdistrict, you will need to be in that map location. To contest a facility, it is enough to be in any map location adjacent to the one in question.
Q. When a facility is lost to Survilurgs, does gold disappear from that facility?
A. No, the facility stays frozen until the tally-up of its contenders is announced and the facility begins to function again.
Q. What is this battle glory? How does it get accounted?
A. Whenever a clan trio defends its subdistrict, the clan gains 1 battle glory point. For now, battle glory will be used for event rating sum-ups, but in future it is supposed to become a score for MC wars. Note that currently, battle glory is credited only to clans participating in the battles for facility control.
Q. How long will this madness last?
A. For a fair while. This event is a final test before introducing permanent MC wars, the team has currently concentrated its attention on the course of this event. |
| Thanks for that. Glad this is not a permanent change. |
| How is decided which clan gets the facility when the result is a draw? =) |
Q. How about faction potion?
A. Faction potion only has effect when there is a player character with higher skill level in that faction. It will have effect in event combats when a member of your party is playing your faction and has higher level.
I had read that when we use POS on our active faction then our active faction get Max-1 fsl independent of the current active faction of the real players in the battle field.
Correct me if i'm wrong. |
Thanks for the clarification, Arctic :)
Q. Does dynamic balancing apply?
A. It does. Losses result in lowering the difficulty of the next Survilurgs battlement, while victories will strengthen them for any particular player character.
I do have a couple questions regarding that. Is dynamic balancing the same for attacks and defences, or are they calculated seperately? (From the wording of your answer, I have to assume that attacks and defences both count for the same dynamic balancing)
Also, do we have to kill a certain percentage of their army to reduce their strength for next time? |

is there a certain amount of fsp that has to be gained in or you just have to lose? |
| [Post deleted by moderator Arctic // Misleading mistake] |
thanks for all that arctic.
I believe you will improve your timing on .com server so that we feel cared.
Oh and thanks for the event anyways;) |
Removed previous post to evade confusion, one answer was misleading.
Murali is completely right with the faction of skill in question, my bad. In short, the faction works as it usually does =)
A few more QAs:
Q. How is decided which clan gets the facility when the result is a draw?
A. The clan which is first to creates the challenge for the battle that will have earned it the final tying victory, claims the subdistrict.
Q. Nine and three quarters of questions about dynamic balancing:
A. This information is always revealed with reluctance. The idea isn't any different with how the balancing works in TG, however, the actual rates are concealed, and I'm not entitled to reveal them.
Q. When does the battle start after group is ready and enlisted?
A. Defense battles start at designated time shown at https://www.lordswm.com/mapwars.php. Attacks start as soon as all three members join, within one minute.
Q. When are facilities available for contesting?
A. Contesting attacks are available after one full hour has passed since control over facility was lost, at xx:00. You have two hours to lead and join attacks. Results will be ready in another three hours after that.
Q. Any useful ideas about which facilities should my clan contest for?
A. Keep in mind the following information:
Each map location is divided into 4 districts, each district - into 4 subdistricts.
Military clans gain 3% of all wages paid in facilities on any map subdistrict they control. If the MC controls an entire district (North, West, South, East subdistricts all at once), then the gain is 5%. If the MC controls an entire location (4 districts, or 16 subdistricts), then the gain is 7%. |
| How does the giving control of troops to clan mates work? i dont see an option. |
| If you are in battle, you should see the option in the upper left corner. Clicking that button will bring down a list of available clan-mates with which you may switch. Keep in mind that the player must be of an equal or higher level than you and must not be in a combat or card challenge. |
For corey
i just tried it, its not working.. i tried switching with a level 16 guy.. is that too high or something? Anyway i clickd on his name and the arrow... but it didnt work... he was watching our battle but couldnt take over control of my troops. |
for virtual_vitrea:
You can pass control of your troops to your clanmate during battle. That clanmate must have the same or higher combat level and should be out of any challenge, battle or card match at the moment
I think he must be in a challenge |
| or else he must be frm different clan :) |
| for I_N_S_A_N_E: If I'm correct,only your clanmates names are displayed. |
for Loafoant:
Well i never tried tht so i cnt say.. |

Maybe That clanmate must... be out of any challenge, battle or card match at the moment means that he should not be spectating a battle.
I think you should try it again with your partner just being online. |
