Myth of Empires Xizhou Civilization DLC is now in the final countdown and will officially launch on March 21 at 02:00 UTC, with servers going live at 14:00 UTC the same day. This DLC is packed with content, including previously revealed exciting features and a game-changing surprise—the Aerial Fortress. This colossal airborne behemoth will reshape the battlefield, becoming a decisive force in the hands of players to turn the tide of war.
This is a costly airborne mobile platform and a meticulously crafted strategic weapon. Flying higher than a giant Kongming lantern, it provides a commanding aerial view of the battlefield. With a fortress defense level of 75 and enhanced durability, it truly lives up to the name Aerial Fortress. However, its massive size comes with drawbacks—relatively slow movement speed and limited maneuverability, making quick turns difficult. In the ever-changing tides of battle, this could be a significant weakness.
In terms of functionality, the Aerial Fortress is not only capable of supporting structures but also allows players to equip it with various siege weapons, including Heavy Ballista, Mechanical Crossbow, Repeating Crossbow, and Counterweight Trebuchet. While airborne, it can launch attacks on targets below. However, for balance reasons, the number of weapons that can be mounted is strictly limited.
In the upcoming Xizhou map, the striking Yadan landforms will draw countless adventurers to explore. These towering wind-eroded pillars, with broad tops and narrow bases, are prime locations for many guilds to establish their strongholds. Their natural terrain advantages make them nearly inaccessible by land, leaving enemy forces with no choice but to watch from afar. In this scenario, the Aerial Fortress becomes the ultimate siege weapon. In PVP mode, its arrival will disrupt the traditional ground-based warfare, enabling high-altitude assaults that strike deep into enemy territory, delivering devastating blows and completely reshaping the battlefield dynamics.
Of course, the Aerial Fortress is not invincible. In the game's battlefield ecosystem, watchtowers and ballista serve as effective counters, especially when attacks precisely hit the balloon on top of the Aerial Fortress, dealing triple damage and inflicting significant damage.
With the upcoming update to the Xizhou Civilization DLC, the powerful addition of the Aerial Fortress will undoubtedly inject new vitality into the game, offering players an unprecedented fresh experience. On March 21, we look forward to stepping into the new world of Myth of Empires together, embarking on an unforgettable journey of exploration and conquest!
