II. Territory War Adjustments
1. New "Warriors Showdown" Mode in Territory Wars
The "Warriors Showdown" mode is now live for testing! During Territory Wars, the rules for Fort battles will change to the 15v15 Warriors Showdown mode. Details are as follows: Rules for Fort Battles: Only the Command House selected after a Declare War action can attack a Fort.
- After declaring, the system will select the Command House based on the ranking of the real-time House Reputation.
- If the Fort is controlled by NPC forces or if a Legion successfully Pitches Camp at the Fort, players with a Title of Decanos or Patrol Leader and above in the Legion can register for the battle.
- After the Command House is determined, both sides have a 5-minute registration phase to prepare for battle.
- Members of The Free Houses alliance must register near or inside the Fort.
- Legion players can use the reinforcement function to register remotely.
- During the registration phase, the Command House and the defending House will have their House Leaders, Deputy Leaders, and Marshals select 15 participants from the registered players.
- If the Legion is participating, the top 15 players with the highest Acclaim will be selected from the registration list once the countdown ends.
- Once both sides have finalized their 15 participants or the registration phase ends, no further changes can be made. The battle will begin after a 10-second countdown.
- If either side fails to select the full lineup of 15 players, the remaining spots will be filled randomly from the registration queue.
- If the Attackers fail to register 15 participants, the attack is considered a failure, and a new Command House will be selected.
- The new Command House will be determined based on the Reputation rankings of the Houses that declared war.
- If the Defenders fail to register 15 participants, all registered players will enter the battle, even if the lineup is incomplete.
- If the Attackers fail to register 15 participants, the attack is considered a failure, and a new Command House will be selected.
- If either side fails to select the full lineup of 15 players, the remaining spots will be filled randomly from the registration queue.
- Once the battle begins, no additional players can join the Front.
- The Capture rules in Fort battles are identical to other Territory War battles. There are three Banners: the Attackers’ Base, the Central Point, and the Defenders’ Base. Each Banner requires 1 minute of uninterrupted control after the capture phase progress bar is completed to fully switch ownership.
- Each participating player has two respawns. Players cannot return to battle after losing their third life.
- Units cannot be replenished during the battle. Units are determined based on what the players bring into the battlefield.
- Both sides have a limit on the number of Artillery they can deploy. Each player can set up to three Artillery.
- Players can use Artillery stored in their Wagons.
- Defending players who have relocated their Camp to the Fort can use Artillery from the Supplies stored in the Artillery Warehouse.
- Level comes equipped with Siege Towers, Battering Rams, and Trebuchet.
- Players who participate in Warriors Showdown and achieve 5 victories in a single Season will receive an Avatar Frame available in the current Season.
- The frame will be removed at the start of the next season, and the victory count will be reset.
- If a House joins an alliance and the alliance achieves 5 Warriors Showdown victories in a single Season, the House will receive a House Arms frame available in the current Season.
- The House Arms frame will be removed at the start of the next Season, and the alliance’s victory count will be reset.

- A maximum of 40 artillery can be stored in the warehouse at any time.
- Artillery Retrieval limits per member:
