Warriors! Welcome to the [Alexander: The Great] Season!
In this magnificent chapter, we will guide you back to the wartime of Alexander's Conquest. We hope the exquisite attires we provided will brighten your conquerors' journey.
Let's unveil Alexander's great story in this epic season, and write down our own heroic legends.
In the Conqueror's Blade [Alexander: The Great] season, we are waiting for your presence!
 
[h2]New Season Unit Attires: Twelfth Trial[/h2]
Under the blessings of the Olympian gods and the brilliance of valiant Hercules's Twelfth Trial, the legendary tales of the demigod hero resound in epics.
The lion and blade signify the prelude to the return of the hero; as the warhorn blares, the hero will dominate on the battlefield and retrieve the past glory.

While the era of gods and heroes may fade into the annals of time, the saga of the greatest demigod hero, Hercules, shall forever resonate in the hearts of warriors. This legendary figure, imbued with unparalleled strength and boundless compassion, undertook twelve Herculean labors, ultimately earning the blessing of the Olympian gods to ascend to the heavens. Tales recount how the bare-chested hero donned the fearsome hide of the Nemean lion he vanquished and wielded a blade that none could withstand. Even the gods themselves stood powerless in his wake as he charged into battle. Inspired by his legend, warriors often emulate Hercules's attire, transforming into heroes reborn on the battlefield. Though such heroes may have departed the earthly realm, their legends and indomitable spirit endure eternally in the fabric of the world.
[Alexander: The Supreme] Unlocks at Season Level 50!
 
[h2]New Unit Mount Attires - Fiery Trial Steed[/h2]
In the long line of epics, the tyrant's steed thirsts for human blood, and enemies wail beneath its iron hooves. In valorous might, Hercules subdued the tyrant, offering sacrifice to the fiery steeds, his heroic will bending the horses to submission. On the battlefield, the fiery steeds reignited their fierce spirit, hooves trampling and tearing at enemies, unleashing relentless fury.

During his Twelve Labors, the hero Hercules encountered a tyrant named Deimos. Deimos was infamous for raising horses that feasted on human flesh, something which rendered them ferocious and insatiably hungry. In his quest for justice, Hercules vanquished the tyrant king and fed him to his own man-eating steeds, thus delivering the retribution he deserved. Curiously, these once-fierce horses turned remarkably docile after consuming the flesh of their former master. Was it the gods' punishment upon the cruel king, or did the horses submit to the hero's might? Divine motives remain inscrutable, yet whispers persist that only upon the battlefield will these equine predators revert to their savage nature, mercilessly tearing into their foes with relentless fury.
[Alexander：The Great] Unlocks at Season Level 50.
 
[h2]New Hero Mount Attires - Bucephalus[/h2]
By the decree of the gods! The fiery steed yearns for its king. Together cloaked in divine light, they march into battle.
As the wheel of fate turned, the threads of destiny tightly bound to the conqueror's command. The hero descended, his radiance shining upon the sky.

In his youth, the Lord of Conquest tamed a wild and ferocious horse, christening it Bucephalus. This formidable steed remained his faithful mount throughout his life, accompanying him through countless battles, adorned in barding that evoked divine light. Legend holds that even before the Conqueror mastered this horse, the Delphic Oracle had prophesied: "He who controls this fierce stallion shall control the world." Thus, the threads of fate appeared to weave together, placing the destiny of the world within the conqueror's reach even amidst the veils of uncertainty.
[Alexander：The Great] Unlocks at Season Level 70.
 
 
Warriors, as time marches on, the flames of war reignite, the [Alexander：The Great] season's melody reaches its crescendo. Beneath this illustrious throne, the hero's radiance never fades, the path of conquest stretches endlessly.
The saga will once again be penned by you, warlords. Together in this stirring feast, let's inscribe eternal glory, weaving an immortal legend!
Warriors, seize the moment to unveil the mask of conquest, grip your weapons tightly, and unleash your boundless passion and courage to create brilliance together!

[h2]Greetings, Warlords! [/h2]

[h2]The update will contain the following: [/h2]




[h2]1. Brand-New Siege Map - [Mystara Castle]![/h2]
Nestled within mountains lies a thousand-year-old fortress. From the ancient Aegean city-states' wars to the sacred Crusades, its outer walls have been baptized by iron and fire countless times. Numerous heroes perished, countless empires vied, yet the castle still stands tall, much like a old veteran, mocking the ambitious who were thirsty for his blood.
As the battles in the "Alexander" season heat up, we're excited to introduce a brand new siege map for our Warlords - [Mystara Castle]!
[h3]Map Intro:[/h3]
[Mystara Castle] is situated in a gorge surrounded by mountains, leaving the southwest and southeast gap to resist enemies. Throughout history, attackers often focus their main attack on the lowlands to the southwest of the castle. Zip lines are particularly effective here, so defenders usually prioritize the southwestern wall for defense.
Also, attackers may blast away the southeastern walls and catch the defenders off guard.

Upon reaching 10 stacks, it will consume 5 stacks to get an additional 25% maximum health for 3 seconds.
  
• Improve the blocking performance of Myrmillones during attacks.

In the [Newbie Server] and [Growth Server], other quests will replace the [Weekly Quest] related to the [Free Battles] and the [Field Battle].
Changes to the [Weekly Quest] will take effect the next time you receive your Weekly Quest, after the version update.
The new [Weekly Challenge] will be refreshed in the fourth week of the season and in subsequent weekly challenges.

[h3](4) Adjustment to the acquisition of Valor Points[/h3]
The amount of Valor Points for achieving MVP or SVP in [Ranked Battle] has been increased, and additional Valor Points will also be granted for MVD, MVS, and MVO.

[h2]Background：[/h2]
Nestled within mountains lies a thousand-year-old fortress. From the ancient Aegean city-states' wars to the sacred Crusades, its outer walls have been baptized by iron and fire for countless times. Numerous heroes perished, countless empires vied, yet the castle still stands tall, much like a old veteran, mocking the ambitious who were thirsty for his blood.


As the battles in [Alexander: The Great] heat up, we're bringing you with a new Siege Battle map – Mystara Castle!


[h2]Introduction:[/h2]
Mystara Castle is situated in a gorge surrounded by mountains, leaving the southwest and southeast gap to resist enemies. Throughout history, attackers often focus their main attack on the lowlands to the southwest of the castle. Zip lines are particularly effective here, so defenders usually prioritize the southwestern wall for defense.


Also, attackers may blast away the southeastern walls and catch the defenders off guard.


[h2]Point A: Street Battle Zone[/h2]
After breaching the southwestern gate, then attackers have to choose their routes much more wisely. Recklessly penetrating the residential area at Point A risks being trapped in narrow alleys. Attackers should divide their forces and enter from the east to cut off the defenders’ rearguard, allowing the other forces to enter through the main gate without interference.


[h2]Point B: No Cavalry Zone[/h2]
Note that Point B is located atop the wall, making it inaccessible for cavalry units of the Attackers. Only infantry can pass and be summoned at Supply Point at Point B. Compared to Point A, Point B offers a more open view, so perhaps Attackers should consider it as a primary target for trebuchets.


[h2]Base: Meat Grinder[/h2]
The defenders’ base will be accessible once either Point A or B is captured. There are 3 or 4 paths leading to the base from the perimeter, but only the fittest can survive. Cannot imagine how bloody the battles will be in these narrow passages between the walls.


The ultimate battles will occur in the church area of the base, which is dooming to be a “meat grinder”. There are flat terrain, numerous intersections and cluster houses, not a suitable condition for ranged units or cavalry, but a perfect battlefield to reap enemies’ lives for melee fanatics.

[h2]Greetings, Warlords! [/h2]
We will conduct maintenance updates from 7:00-10:00 on July 4th (UTC+1). The maintenance is expected to last for 3 hours. After the maintenance, we will distribute Bronze Coins*8000, Honor*300, and Unit Medal*15 as compensation. Warlords, please arrange your play time accordingly.
