Game Migrated to Another Steam Page News

A new season is rushing towards us, which means it’s time once again to consider the benefits of acquiring a new Battle Pass. As with previous seasons, the Season IV Battle Pass is by no means necessary - you can earn some great rewards without one. But, if you want to maximise your time and effort and claim all that the coming season has to offer, you might find a Season IV Battle Pass worth your while. 

That’s because there are two tiers of seasonal rewards, a lower tier for everyone, and a higher tier for those with a Battle Pass. The more Glory you earn during the course of the season, the higher your Nobility rank and the more rewards you can claim.
 

As well as items such as Bronze Chests and Battle Relics, you can claim exclusive cosmetic items and amass a stack of Season IV Hero Tokens, which you can exchange in the newly-stocked Seasonal Store right up until Season IV ends. Whatever your class, whatever your style, there should be something for everyone to enjoy!

The unit-boosting Doctrine system has been revised a couple of times since it was introduced in September 2019. The latest overhaul as part of the Blood of the Empire release aims to make Doctrines easier to manage and units more versatile.

The changes to the Doctrine system are twofold. The first is that the side of the Unit Details screen where you’d select Doctrines now takes you to a seperate screen. It’s here that you’ll notice the second major change, as Doctrines must now be “activated” before they can be learnt. This allows you to select the types of Doctrines you want to use and switch between them quickly and easily without destroying them.



Go to the Barracks tab of your Unit screen (U) and select the unit you wish to augment. On the right of the Unit Details screen (above), you will see all the Doctrines that are active and applied to the unit - up to a maximum of five. Just click in the area of the symbol to go to the unit’s Doctrine screen.



As on the previous unit screen, you can see which Doctrine slots are filled or empty. In addition, via the smaller icons you can see all the Doctrine types that can be understood by the selected unit. Those that are greyed out must be “activated” before they can be learnt. To do this, click on the slot you wish to fill, then the Doctrine you wish you activate from your Inventory. Hold down the mouse button to Activate, then you can select the Doctrine to have your unit learn it.



The purpose of activating a Doctrine for a unit before it can be learnt is so players can benefit from a broader selection of bonuses; by being able to switch types without losing any Doctrines in the process.
To return an active Doctrine to your inventory, click on its icon and select “Remove Doctrine”. This deactivation process will cost 1x Lotus Wine - a new item that can be acquired from the Seasonal Store (F5). No Doctrines are lost in the removal/deactivation process. You can also right-click on a learnt Doctrine to apply a new one without deactivating it.

Today is France’s national day of celebration, widely referred to as Bastille Day. It commemorates the events of July 14, 1789, when the great medieval fortress of Paris was stormed as a prelude to the French Revolution. In celebration of this momentous occasion, you can from today raise the new Liberté Banner above your troops and charge your enemies at will.

The Liberté Banner is available for FREE (1 per account) from the MY.GAMES Market. Subsequently, it will remain on sale for US$1.50/1.50€, or for 150 Sovereigns from the in-game Store, until July 21, 23:00 CEST.

Vive la France!
