Parallel Universe  

The Parallel Universe is a special realm where you can play and upgrade levels specifically for that realm, which levels grant you bonuses in all realms that you play in as a part of the same global account. You can register through the icon marked with a globe in the upper right corner of the avatar icon. Detailed information about bonus types and conditions for obtaining them can be found in this menu.

There is a local system for levelling up, available in this realm only. Bonuses from reached levels are applied on remaining v5 and v6 realms (except tournament realms). Levels and bonuses from the reached levels are decreasing in case of inactivity. The accumulated experience points in the Parallel Universe drop every day by 2% if you were active during the previous day or by 20% if you weren't. The decrease in experience points leads to a decrease of the level and reduction of the bonuses you are receiving in all realms.
You will receive additional percentages to all bonuses you have unlocked according to your position in the net point ranking of the Parallel universe. They are as follows:
1st place = 10%
2nd to 10th = 8%
11th to 20th = 6.5%
21st to 50th = 5%
51st to 100th = 4.5%
101st to 200th = 4%
201st to 500th = 3%
501st to 1000th = 2%
1001st to 1500th = 1.5%
The level and its respective bonuses are updated once a day at 00:01 server time.
The accumulated parallel experience points are reduced by 40% with the restart of the season. Accordingly the parallel level will also be reduced to a value corresponding to the new experience points. For accounts with parallel level less than 20 there will be no experience reduction with the restart of the season. For accounts which would drop below level 20, the reduction will leave them at level 20. All newly registered participants in the realm and accounts that finished the season at below level 20 will start their progress from level 20.
A series of events take place during the first 4 weeks of the realm and they affect military and economical aspects of the gameplay. Each event has a duration of 1 week:

- No honor penalty for pillaging and pillage limit is increased to 10 per day but the population growth will be increased by 20%;

- All fortress siege battles will start with a 10 points morale bonus for the attacker, but the effect of the curtain wall will be increased by 20%. This event will affect both personal and alliance battles.;

- All units will see a 20% increase of carrying capacity but fortresses will protect 50% more resources;

- Travel time is reduced by 10% but upkeep during a mission is increased by 10%. This event will affect both personal and alliance battles.

There are 36 castles on the map and the occupation of an alliance castle is happening through the module Allegiance. The diamond rewards for top alliances by influence are increased as follows: 100K diamonds for each player in the alliance winning the first place, 50K for the second place and 34K for the third place. Additionally, a special medal is awarded for number of conquered castles, independent of the ranking. Additional points are given from acquired medals for the Hall of Fame.

Priority Deployment  

In battle, each Army Unit has its Priority Deployment, that determines its position on the battlefield. The possible deployments include the Frontline, the Archery Line, and the Artillery Line. The Frontline priority can further broken down by Division: Flank or Center.
When combat begins, your chosen Formation will accommodate as much as possible the priorities of each unit. While the Battle Lines have no limits for their respective composing units, the Flanks and Centers do, which means that a unit will be positioned at its Priority Deployment only if there is available space there. If the priority Flanks or Center have already been occupied by other units, the remaining units which Priority Deployment can't be accommodated will be relegated to the other available Division of the Frontline.

Example: You enter battle with an army of 60% Spearmen and 40% Swordsmen, in a Balanced Formation. The Spearmen have Flanks as their Priority Deployment; the Balanced Formation, however, puts only 30% of your troops in the Flanks (15% in each Flank). Therefore, both of your Flank will be entirely constituted of Spearmen, but the remaining 30% Spearmen will be relegated to the Center, where they fight with penalties.

You should always attempt to fight in Formation which accommodates the Priority Deployment of all of your troops!
All Melee units have their Priority Deployment on the Frontline.
All Swordsmen units have their Priority Deployment on the Frontline Center.
All Cavalry units have their Priority Deployment on the Frontline Flanks.
Light and Heavy Spearmen have their Priority Deployment on the Flanks; Phalanx have their Priority Deployment on the Frontline Center.
All Archer units have their Priority Deployment on the Archery Line.
All Siege Engines, except the Battering Ram, have their Priority Deployment on the Artillery Line.
