Greetings, your Grace! 👑
Welcome to the Chronicles of Rodovia - a series designed to prepare you for ascension to the throne! 📖 Thanks to the following entries, you will learn how to manage your kingdom and your subjects, make crucial, even fateful decisions, and safeguard your reign from premature demise. In each subsequent post, we will take a closer look at a different gameplay element and explain the basic mechanics that govern the world of Crown of Greed, so be sure to follow them carefully.
The truth is that the enemies of your kingdom never sleep and are constantly looking for new ways to end your reign 💀 With this in mind, you must always be ready to repel the attacks of beasts that come at you from the surrounding forests, swamps or snowy plains, ready to risk everything to slay you and your loyal subjects. Fortunately, there is a way to stop them...
It's all about safety ✊
The inhabitants of the realm of Rodovia know well that strong defense is the basis of their survival. That's why they have perfected a system of diverse defense towers that are designed to keep their borders safe. Your task as king will be to decide on their number, location and types - all this to kill every foe that dares to set foot on your territory!
Types of defense towers at your disposal 🏰
1️⃣ Guard Tower - Level 1 - The most basic defensive structure in your arsenal, that can be very helpful in the early stages of the game. It's not very durable, its damage isn't as high as other towers, and its range leaves a lot to be desired, but it's still great against weaker invaders.
2️⃣ Guard Tower - Level 2 - A larger, more durable, stronger and simply better version of the previous tower. When you feel the enemy pressure getting stronger, consider upgrading a few towers to level 2. We are sure you will feel the difference.
3️⃣ Observer Tower - Level 3 - Second-level towers can be upgraded into three variants.
The first one is the Observer Tower, whose task is to spot enemies from long distances to give you valuable time to prepare your defense. Of course, it's still manned by shooters, but its damage output isn't very high... compared to its view range, which is roughly three times that of the Level 2 Guard Tower.
3️⃣ Gunner’s Tower - Level 3 - The structure that your enemies fear the most - manned by twice as many shooters, who send their projectiles towards the invaders at astonishing speeds. It is a durable, deadly tower that can be the core of your defense.
3️⃣ Dam Tower - Level 3 - By far the most resistant and durable defensive structure in your kingdom. The speed of its shooters may not be that great, but the damage they deal is unmatched. Destroying this type of tower takes a lot of time, and during the process, the invaders are constantly exposed to fire!
Other ways to keep your cities safe 💪
The defensive towers themselves, although powerful, may sometimes prove to be insufficient ☠️ Remember not to neglect the recruitment of soldiers and heroes who will not only support the operation of the towers, but can also destroy the habitats of enemies who attack your settlements. You must not forget, that some hero classes are perfect for defensive tasks, while others are better suited for reconnaissance missions and those aimed at destroying monster dens. Choose wisely!
The horde mode 😈
Although this mode is still in quite an early stage of development, we still want to tell you a few words about it. In this mode, defense becomes even more important and becomes your main task as the king 👑 You can think of it as a kind of Tower Defense, in which you will be attacked by huge waves of enemies... and we mean it, when saying huge!
As mentioned earlier, we're still developing the Horde Mode, and we'll share more exciting details once we have something interesting to reveal. Meanwhile, we hope you enjoy this sneak peek!
Thank you, your Majesty!
We trust that the eighth installment of the Chronicles of Rodovia series has sparked your eagerness to seize the throne and guide your kingdom to prosperity and glory!
