Reset imminent

[The Lady Shael]

Hi Turbo players,

This is just a reminder that the round will be reset on August 28th, at 10 PM EST. At that time, the final stats will be posted on the forums, and everyone's accounts will be deleted. To play the next round, you must sign up again (so everyone starts on an even playing field).

You will definitely want to play next round. :p Tell your friends, it should be a lot of fun!

Good luck for the rest of the round!

We will announce the next theme on the day of the reset!

My first thought.

This round is completely ruined in regards of gameplay. Why should anyone continue next set? Do you realise unclanned empires have been at hitlimit for about a week? Once they were maxed the never unmaxed. After The Indomitable (#30) ran he was still at hitlimit. That was yesterday and he's still at hitlimit. When he runs turns again he can't be touched.

Fix the game Shael. Lucky most of the foundation was already established and the networth that wins top spots was created without glitch or bug abuse

[The Lady Shael]

Next round, the hit limits will go back to normal. The only reason we were having those problems was because we tried to balance the theme (as per your request) and those modifications will not stay next round.

[Sevah]

Keep active, thanks for stuff you do.

[Rakefur]

It was a fun round, I'll have to admit. Any guesses on next round's theme?

[The Lady Shael]

Hope you guys are excited for the reset! :)

The theme of next round is.....Pearls of Lutra!

[Pippin]

which one is that again?  i don't think i've played one of these rounds.

Here are the gameplay and feature details for the round, coming up tonight. =) Reply here if you have any questions.



Pearl Holder location:
This location has a 1.50 2.00 bonus for all location stats. Only one clan can be in this location at a time. To get to this location,  you must kill the land farm account "Tears of All Oceans". Once you kill the land farm, your whole clan is automatically moved to "Pearl Holder". You can't move to any other location (but why would you want to? =p). You can stay in this location as long as you like, until another clan kills the land farm Tears of All Oceans (which is reborn again with 10,000 land). You can drop land to the land farm (only if you are in the Pearl Holder location) to prevent it from being killed.

When a clan kills the land farm, whatever clan currently holds the pearls will be forced out of Pearl Holder, into either Sampetra or Mossflower, depending on their clan.

Sampetra location:
Sampetra is an island off of the coast of Mossflower. It is most well-known for being the home of the Emperor Ublaz Madeyes. This island has high bonuses (not as high as Pearl Holder), but these bonuses come with a price: every time you use turns in Sampetra, you pay a very small tax to Ublaz in the form of cash and food (0.02% of both, per turn!). Sampetra is the only location where you can buy lizards.
Bonuses:
Loyalty: 1.30
Army: 1.30
Scouting: 1.15
Attraction: 1.25

Mossflower location:
Bonuses:
Loyalty: 1.10
Army: 1.10
Scouting: 1.20
Attraction: 1.00

Emperor Ublaz Madeyes:
An emperor account with much resources and land. Ublaz is the ruler of the island of Sampetra. You can attack him and use other leader missions on him, and he CAN be killed.

Once he is killed, the person who killed him becomes the Emperor of Sampetra, and earns the tax of the Sampetra location, except the tax can only be a max of 0.005%. Once the player becomes the Emperor, they have "Emperor" put in front of their name (will be done manually), they are removed from their clan (can no longer join or create clans) and they can't move to any other location (including Pearl Holder).

If you become Emperor, you will have access to a top secret page: Throne Room. There, you can set the value of the tax (can be from 0% to 0.005% per turn), or send a mass-message to everyone on Sampetra. You can still be killed though, and if you are, then the person who kills you will take your place as the Emperor of Sampetra.

Ublaz also has hypnotizing powers. If you attack and/or use offensive missions against him many times, then there is a greater chance he will hypnotize you, which will lock you from taking turns for 1 hour. The more you attack him, the greater the chance of you being hypnotized.  When you start attacking him, you only have a 1/50 chance of being hypnotized and increases from there, but it stops at a 1/10 chance (which pretty dang likely). If someone kills Ublaz, they do not inherit his hypnotizing powers.

Killing Ublaz and becoming Emperor is NOT the main focus of the game...the main focus should be trying to steal the pearls and protecting them from the other clans. But it will certainly make things interesting. =)

Clans:
There are four clans: Ublaz's Army, Trident Guard, Corsairs, and Woodlanders. Ublaz's Army and Trident Guard start out on Sampetra (tax still applies in protection), and Corsairs and Woodlanders start out in Mossflower. You cannot leave your clan (unless you become Emperor). In the first week of the game, all the clan members can vote for a clan leader, and after exactly one week, whoever has the most votes will become the leader of that clan. The clan leader will have all the normal clan administration options (except to boot people from the clan and change clan name and tag).

Lizard Troops:
Lizards are a new troop type only available through Mercenaries on Sampetra. They have an OP of 12 and DP of 9. Their base cost is $5000 and their networth multiplier is 8. Their attack type is Cannibal Attack. (it's just a name, nothing special about it. =p) They can be used in any location, and they are also used in Standard attacks. You can also sell them on the Market or aid them to others.
[edit] Changed: Lizards are now available anywhere, not just Sampetra.

Tears of All Oceans:
This is the land farm account that allows a clan to move to the Pearl Holder location. It starts out with 10,000 land, and every time it is killed, it is automatically reborn again with 10,000 land. Land can be dropped to it if you are in the Pearl Holder location, but it can't receive aid.

Market Networth:
Doesn't count.

Lottery:
Starts at 2 billion instead of 1 billion. =p

Non-theme Features!
[Working] max buttons for mercs, and selling on public market! =D Also, clan forums underwent major behind-the-scene changes, with pagination added!



That's all I can think of for now. I'll edit as needed.

[Ashyra Nightwing]

Oh man, Pearls of Lutra is the best theme. Definitely going to be playing this time round

[Rakefur]

I'm playing. Although I'm not a vet.

[Pippin]

are you able to produce lizards through barracks or just buy from mercs?

[Rakefur]

Do you get to choose your clan?

[The Lady Shael]

are you able to produce lizards through barracks or just buy from mercs?

Just buy from mercs.

Do you get to choose your clan?

Nope, clan assignment is random (just like all forced clan rounds).

[Shadow]

does it tax mission production? (it should)
