Based on continued discussions with the affected players and much consideration, we've decided to:
Merge the [Espada Forest] server into the EU/NA server cluster and embark upon a journey of taking Conqueror's Blade global!
[Espada Forest] will be merging with the NA region's [Eagle Range] server on June 27 with the launch of the [Alexander: The Great] season, thus forming the [Elysium Peak] server—a matchmaking ecology with servers from the EU and NA, creating an all-new server ecology for both EU and US players alike!
This decision is based on our community's wishes along with the dev team's wish for a wider server ecology. Providing high-quality services and a great gameplay experience to our global playerbase has been something the team has always been striving for. We want to take this opportunity to improve the experience for those affected and put the expansive world of Conqueror's Blade out there for all to experience—in a more global format than ever.
As we respect each individual player's choice, you will be given a choice between June 20 and June 27 (around when [Espada Forest] forest merges into the NA [Eagle Range] server)
- To select whether your characters on [Espada Forest] transfer to the [Asia] servers or the [NA - Eagle Range] one. Those of you who would prefer not to merge into the EU/NA playerbase, may instead opt to transfer to the Asia servers (LA/DI/JC/EX).
- Characters for which no selection is made during this time will be transferred to the NA [Eagle Range] server and be part of forming the [Elysium Peak] server.
- Following the server merge, players that transfer onto the [Elysium Peak] server will need to log in to the website pertaining to the International servers (global.conquerorsblade.com), and then use their old account (Poros/Steam) and re-download the game.
- Character data transferred from the [Espada Forest] server will be processed based on the destination server, after which they will have to adhere to that server's ecology and rules. This includes payment, online modes, events, etc.
Merge Schedule

Going Global! How to Get Leadership doctrine For EU/NA Players!
The arrival of our South American warlords will bring fresh strategies and fiercer battles than ever before! This marks the beginning of our global ecosystem, and this change is bound to bring about change on the NA and EU servers alike.
We've learned what our EU and NA players think about Leadership doctrine during our discourse with the community, and following our related survey, we now also know what your expectations regarding Leadership doctrine are.
We've had animated discussions about the results within the team, and we'll be bringing Leadership doctrine to the EU/NA servers around the launch of the new season!
But how do you get Leadership doctrine?
Putting it simply, it's free, easy to get, and there will be extra rewards coming for the season!
- You will receive 1 free doctrine to reduce leadership at levels 100 and 300. This event will be permanently available.
- You'll be able to claim 5 seasonal limited-time doctrines to reduce leadership over the course of Season 19 simply by signing in daily! These will only work during S19, after which they will expire. You can use these as you see fit, and removing them won't require Doctrine Water (you also cannot use them for Fusion, etc.).
- A special S19 event series will be available on the EU and NA servers during S19. By raising your Season Level you'll be able to claim up to 100 Treatises and more!
- Starting from S19, you'll be able to spend Treatises in the various Doctrine Pools for a chance at getting Leadership doctrine!
We sincerely hope that the Leadership doctrine will bring about over-arching changes that give more room for strategizing and a greater variety of units!
Conclusion
The merging of [Espada Forest] to the EU/NA servers is the first step in creating a global ecology. We'll continue to expand the scope of Conqueror's Blade's international servers to allow players across more regions to participate in this feast of medieval battles, no longer bound by regions! We firmly believe that Conqueror's Blade has what it takes to shine brightly and reach a more global playerbase. Thank you all for your continued support and trust!
