The army of the Anadolou Empire marches north. Their numbers are legion, their battle prowess is beyond measure, and their sights are set on total dominion. A new power is rising, and it will not stop until the old world yields to it. Contend with the might of an empire in Season IV: Blood of the Empire, coming to Conqueror’s Blade as a free update in July 2020!

Season IV is heavily influenced by the rich history and culture of Turkey, especially during the rule of the Ottoman Empire. Throughout the season, you will discover new battlegrounds where his majesty Sultan Fatih Suleyman IV of the Anadolou Empire will make his stand, and the units, weapons, and armour that form the blood of his realm.

Get ready to siege and slay your way across two new maps created especially for Siege Battles and Field Battles! Inspired by the nigh-impregnable city of Constantinople and the Golden Horn in Istanbul, these battlegrounds are important strategic footholds to the Sultan, and may prove critical in his campaign to lay claim to the prized Conqueror’s City.

The Anadolou Empire employs patient and methodical tactics when waging war. Two new deployable items will help you fight like these warriors from the south: use Powder Kegs to blow your enemies’ defences wide open, or slow their advance with Barricades. Four new units can also be unlocked via Seasonal Challenges: musketeers, halberdiers, swordsmen, and cavalry units are all ready to fight for the Sultan’s cause! Deploy these soldiers and items to tackle the new ongoing Campaign, plus more Weekly Challenges as the season progresses.



Also launching with Season IV, the new Battle Pass will be packed with over 100 levels of rewards, including season-exclusive cosmetics, valuable items, and a special currency that can be exchanged for 11 unique, Turkish-themed weapon skins. Make sure you buy your Battle Pass in-game or from MY.GAMES Market to unlock instant rewards when Season IV is available!

Season IV: Blood of the Empire will be released as a free update in July 2020. Keep an eye on the website and subscribe to the official newsletter for more information about Season IV in the coming weeks. You can also follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Discord for the latest from the world of Conqueror’s Blade!

The Francs Alliance, one of the oldest and largest alliances active on the EU West 2 server, is organising a 2v2 player tournament for all players, regardless of nationality or language. The aim is to put aside old feuds for a while, come together and enjoy an epic show of strength!

The hope is to bring together more than a hundred competitors and have them fight across several days - how long will depend on how many people sign up! You can check out the rules, planned competition dates and sign up for combat via the competition’s Discord channel.

Our thanks to the organisers - and to those planning to do battle, good luck!

As an advocate for new players, BraveBoar recognised the benefits of the Imperial Restorationist system pretty early on. He saw that legions and cohorts were a good way for players to advance their understanding of Conqueror’s Blade without the distraction of inter-house politics and alliance diplomacy getting in the way.

Streaming for three years now, BraveBoar says it is his aim “to help as many people as possible and to build a community based on that.” That community being the ‘cohort community’, an affiliation of players that prefer the rigid simplicity of what are ostensibly NPC houses and alliances, whose only aim is to unite their home regions. A decorated member of the Ungverijan Legion, BraveBoar has been actively bringing together like-minded players from all corners of the in-game globe. “We now we have a self-sufficient [cohort] community in almost all the in-game regions,” he says.

BraveBoar’s streams tend to focus on taking players through battles, such as pillaging Rebel Camps and taking part in sieges and Territory Wars: “Standard gameplay from the cohort perspective,” he says. “Players are always welcome to pop in and ask questions about the game or ask for help, but we also have a lot of events like training camps or regional cohort parades.”

An important part of BraveBoar’s content is the Imperial Restorationists Discord channel, which is often as much a part of his streams as he is himself. “I start off my day by asking if anyone needs any help, either in the cohort’s Discord that we set up or in the actual cohorts alliance chat - and if there’s anyone in current [in-game] chat who needs help as well.” Later, once he’s completed his in-game chores, BraveBoar reaches out to local player-run houses to find “ways we can improve the new player experience in the region.”

It probably says something about BraveBoar that his favourite in-game moment was when his and other cohorts fought to defend the Conqueror’s City during the climax of Season II, partly because it quickly became his favourite map, but mostly because it brought so many players together. “It was really amazing to see groups from every region come to a central point and go up against the best players in the game,” he says.



BraveBoar is similarly impressed by the content creation community, especially the efforts of two people in particular. “Cobra Commander has some pretty awesome energy and crazy skill in the game, and Hjulstad, because he is really friendly and is trying to improve the new player experience on the EU side of the game.”

The existence of a community within a community - to talk to fellow creators and have access to game resources - has been a real boon, says BraveBoar, allowing him to focus on his areas of expertise while letting others concentrate on theirs - without, of course, the distraction of rivalry getting in the way.
