Pennon and Battle News

Elven Empire - The Twilight of the Empire, Reclaiming Past Glory

The story of Pennon and Battle is set in an ancient land called Ruachland. Various races have established their own realms on this fertile continent. The Elven Empire was once the sole ruler of Ruachland, but it declined due to internal strife and division at its peak. Eventually, it disintegrated following a catastrophic explosion caused by the Elves' research into source power. The remaining Elves, though still elegant, yearn for their former glory.

Elves revere Mother Nature. As the early world rulers of the new era, they were proud and confident, establishing a great civilization with high achievements in technology, magic, and arts. However, these are things of the past. Since the mysterious cataclysm, Elven civilization has taken a different path. During the era of conquest, Elves experienced displacement and foreign invasions, becoming cautious and united. They will resolutely fight against nature's enemies until a new Emerald Emperor is chosen. Now, Elves ally with natural creatures, maintaining their nobility, elegance, closeness to nature, and love for magic and archery. Their cities blend with nature. The chapter of Elven revival has begun, and they will restore the empire's former glory.

Faction Features:
The cataclysm wiped out most of the Elves' population. To maintain order, the remaining Elves had to ally with natural forces. The Giant Bear and Treant tribes became the backbone of the Elven troops, and the powerful dragons, due to ancient pacts, also became the strongest force in the Elven troops. Elven Empire soldiers possess strong combat abilities, and thanks to the magical powers of the Tree of Life, they can heal and recover during battles, giving them an advantage from the start.

Announcement of Delay for Early Access Phase of 'Pennon and Battle'

Dear Lords,
After the review of Steam, we were eager to launch the game as soon as possible. We urgently evaluated the merging of the two versions and announced the new launch date of Early Access - July 2, 2024 (Pacific Time).

But when we communicated with Steam, Steam reminded us that they would normally give a boost to an app's visibility at launch, but this boost doesn't happen during Steam-wide sales. At the same time, other games on sale will greatly affect the exposure of new games on the front page. At this point, we realized we had chosen the wrong date for the EA launch. To ensure a better launch, we decided to delay the Early Access Phase again. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Another delay is also a tough decision for us and we do not wish to see it. However, the traffic exposure of Steam is undoubtedly important for a new game, and we hope to gain your understanding.

During this extended period, we will continue to optimize the game, such as speeding up the production of the story campaign, enhancing the visual effects game, testing BOT and battles performance, trying our best to reduce bugs at EA launch, and providing a better game for everyone. We will also share more updates with you and hopefully, you can continue to follow us. We will evaluate and announce the new date of the EA launch as soon as possible. It will not take a long time.

We deeply apologize again for our decision to delay.

Additionally, the Steam community event "Share Your First Encounter with Strategy Games and Win a Game Key" will be extended to the new date of the EA launch. The rewards will be increased from "4 Steam keys for Pennon and Battle" to "8 Steam keys for Pennon and Battle." We are looking forward to your participation!

Ancient Swarm—Awakened Swarm, Rebels of the Old Gods

The story of Pennon and Battle is set in an ancient land called Ruachland. Various tribes established their own kingdoms on this fertile continent. Since its awakening, the Swarm rapidly expanded with its terrifying reproductive and infective abilities. By the time the factions realized, it was too late; the Swarm had ravaged Ruachland.


The Ancient Swarm is a peculiar tribe that existed in Ruachland before the last era. They were servants and experiments of the Old Gods. Under the influence of the Old Gods great power, the Swarm possessed strong reproductive and mutative abilities. Their bizarre forms and strict hierarchy created wonders within the species. To control the Swarm as their sharpest weapon, the Old Gods endowed them with psychic powers, allowing the Swarm to coordinate actions within a unified neural network. However, this weapon developed a will of its own. Under the leadership of the Queen, the Ancient Swarm rebelled against the Old Gods. The war was both a success and a failure. Ultimately, the Queen sacrificed herself to free the entire species from the Old Gods' soul-binding, and the heavily damaged Swarm began an endless slumber deep underground. The Swarm's deep sleep was supposed to continue until the new era began, when a group of noisy dwarves drilled into their sleeping lair...

Faction Characteristics:
The Ancient Swarm lurks in the dark underground world, forming a vast and complex community with their nests as bases. The members of this tribe vary greatly, from the lowest ant-like drones to the highly intelligent Matriarchs and elite Warriors, forming a strict hierarchy. Each nest of the Swarm is ruled by a Matriarch, who controls the Swarm through the Spirit link ability granted by the Old Gods.
The Ancient Swarm's Troop consists of various Swarm creatures. Although a single Swarm's combat power is not strong, their vast numbers make up for it. On the battlefield, the most terrifying aspect of the Swarm is their soldier numbers. As they eliminate enemies, countless new Swarms are born, and the Matriarchs continuously hatch larva on the battlefield. The larva born from infection spread like wildfire across every piece of land they pass.

Faction Buildings:

Conversion Core: Ancient Swarm heroes can convert defeated enemies into Ravagers stored in the Conversion Core. Having multiple Conversion Cores can increase the efficiency of converting Ravagers, stacking up to five layers. All recruitable Ravagers in the Conversion Core are lost every Monday.
Mind Centre: Increases the production of a random type of Soldier each week.
Colony: Provides a Colony for the town during siege battles. Enemies on the Colony have reduced Attack and Defense.

Faction Units:
Hero - Silverwing Zabul

The most fully evolved individual of the Ravager genus. Chosen by the Old Gods for a terrifying evolution experiment, Zabul's body underwent continuous mutation. He escaped the experiment with the help of the Queen, halting his evolution. Since then, he has been loyal to the Queen but lost her during a cocooning slumber.

Unique Talent: Nest Guardian Riot
Talent Effect: Increases Movement Point, Speed, Defense, and Attack for Ravager and Nest Guardian
Talent Enhancement Direction: Combat Skills, Leadership, Exploration

Hero - Chaotic Nevren

The embodiment of the will of the Old Gods, the Lord of Chaos. Representing chaos and destruction, this ancient creature excels at creating endless mutant swarms. The Queen saw this and recruited Nevren to create havoc, successfully diverting attention of the Old Gods messengers.


Unique Talent: Deep Infection
Talent Effect: Enhances the infection effect of mutant Swarm
Talent Enhancement Direction: Leadership, Source Power, Exploration

Seventh-Tier Ascended Soldier: Swarm Queen

Active Skill
Hatch Swarm: Hatches a group of random numbers of Swift Larva or Gluttonous Larva within one grid around itself, lasting until the end of the battle. The number of larva is influenced by its own number.
Partial Passive Skills
Swarm: Its Morale is fixed at 0, unaffected by any positive or negative effects.

War Machinery: Web Tower

Attacks enemy units from a distance, with a chance to immobilize the attacked unit for one turn.
