From June 22 until June 30, 16 teams of 15 players from Europe, Russia, and North America will clash on the battlefield to claim their place as the mightiest warlords in Conqueror’s Blade. The name of the game is elimination. Are you up to the task?

Registration is now open until June 15, and spots are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Additional teams will be placed on a waiting list in case of dropouts.

WHERE TO WATCH
Keep your eyes on Conqueror’s Blade on Twitch for match coverage and commentary so you don’t miss a beat of this thrilling gauntlet!

Join the CM team for our regular Tuesday's fresh characters stream! We'll continue levelling up our characters and have some fun on the way!

We are also live on Twitch!

he final stage of Season VII’s Campaign is underway, which means that, as well as regional capitals being up for grabs, the Core Capital is ripe for conquest. Of course, only those warlords that count themselves among the best of the best can hope to take the season’s ultimate prize, but for those that can manage modest gains in Territory Wars, the benefits are more than worthwhile. Access to local resources, income from taxation, denying your enemies - as well as the end-of-season rewards for taking part in all those epic battles!

It’s not too late to join the fight! Just complete the following checklist and you should be taking over fiefs in no time.

Join an active House

You don’t have to be part of a group to engage in battle, but if you want to share in the glory and income of controlling territory, being part of a formal group of players is mandatory. You can either join a Cohort, which is an NPC-controlled organisation where the AI will determine which fiefs that members of the Cohort should focus their attention, or join a Free House in which the leader chooses where to strike next.

Keep questing

Territory Wars occur bi-weekly every Tuesday and Saturday, but you don’t have to join the frontline to help the war effort. Between events, you can help out your teammates by completing Fief Quests. These missions will reward you with the materials needed to level up your settlements and keep your armies well stocked, which ultimately makes them more difficult and costly to attack for your enemies.

Practise in Matchmaking Battles

If you’ve played a Siege or Field Battle, congratulations - you are well on your way to becoming a conquering hero! When you target a fief, whether it’s a small village or a regional capital, the resulting battle is played out across maps based on those that are common to matchmaking battles, so the more battles you play outside a Territory War, the more you’ll be ready when the next one comes around. If you can join battles with friends and allies and coordinate your efforts, even better!

Territory War battles are different

Yes, the maps will be familiar, but there are some important differences between battles that are played out during a Territory War session. The most immediate is that there are no pre-placed artillery pieces on the map. You must remember to bring your own. Another important difference is that a queue exists where allies can take your place when you die in battle, and if there’s time left on the clock (assuming you win), you might be required to defend the same fief immediately afterwards. 



Have a plan!
Planning for a battle should begin way ahead of Territory Wars starting. You and your team need to discuss your mix of weapon classes and units, and ensure they are in place on the open world map ahead of time. Then you should have a tactical plan of how you envisage the battle playing out. Try to stick to the plan as much as possible, and listen to the commands of the team leader in case the plan changes - which it undoubtedly will.

Communicate!

Matchmaking battles tend to play out as free-for-alls, with very little communication going on between allies unless they are already assigned to one another as friends. However, in a Territory Wars battle, accurate and timely communication is absolutely essential for any team hoping to win a fight. Using some form of real-time voice system is almost as necessary as equipping weapons and units, while a knowledge of the tactical commands available via the chat wheel (accessible via the middle mouse button) should be a basic requirement.

From June 22 until June 29, 16 teams of 15 players from Europe, Russia and North America will clash on the battlefield, with the victors going on to participate in a global tournament where they’ll face the best Conqueror’s Blade players in the world.

Registrations will open on June 1 at 19:00 CEST / 10:00 PST, and spots will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Additional teams will be placed on a waiting list in case of dropouts.

There are two types of units in Conqueror’s Blade. First are those you unlock through regular gameplay by spending Honour points, many of which have been in the game since closed beta. Then, there are those that have since been released as part of a themed seasonal update and that have to be unlocked by completing Seasonal Challenges.

In this round-up, we look at the units added to the game over the last two years that all warlords should assign a permanent place to in their army roster.

Landsknechts

Season V: Legacy of Fire was notable for introducing the concept of Promoted Units, which was a way of upgrading a regular unit into a seasonal one. For Season VI: Scourge of Winter, all three of the new units were Promoted units, of which the first, Landsknechts, quickly proved itself and has retained its place in many a warband since. Essentially a beefed-up unit of Spear Sergeants — a stalwart of many a young Hero’s armed forces — three-star Landsknechts are a cheap but effective fallback option for pretty much any army.



Shieldmaidens

It’s perhaps too early to decide whether this five-star unit from Season VII: Wolves of Ragnarok is an essential unit or not, as newly-introduced troops often need a full season or two to bed down and find their niche. However, as the game’s first all-female unit, and one of the most versatile in terms of attacking and defensive options, the Shieldmaidens have already managed to prove themselves and will likely achieve iconic status before too long.



Janissaries

The first unit made available as part of Season IV: Blood of the Empire, Janissaries can be seen as the game’s first and only sniper unit. With their weapons patiently braced to cut down the first enemy unit to come into range, Janissaries can often be found atop the outer wall of any Siege battle and continue to be an effective opening unit for anyone looking to set up a defence on solid higher ground. Just remember to pull them back before being overrun.



Liao’s Rangers

Liao’s Rangers benefit from being based on five-star Fire Lancers, which was already among the most popular cavalry units even before Season VI: Scourge of Winter came along to promote them. It’s not a fast unit, but its devastating medium-range weapon — the titular Fire Lance — makes it a formidable hit-and-run unit, especially if that run takes it into the heart of the enemy, all guns blazing!



Fortebraccio Pikemen

The Falconetti Gunners were the explosive new unit that arrived as part of Season III: Soldiers of Fortune, but it was the Fortebraccio Pikemen that have stood the test of time, to the point that the unit is seen by many to be among the best defensive units in the game, thanks to their strength, reach, and terrain bonuses. Position them well and you can almost guarantee that a unit of Fortebraccio Pikemen will stand its ground, but it's the fact that the unit can also be effective in attack that puts it at the vanguard of this list.
