Game Migrated to Another Steam Page News

In order to best focus our efforts on supporting the Conqueror’s Blade community in its most active channels, the Conqueror’s Blade forums will be closing down on March 4th. You will still be able to access the forums in a read-only format from 26th February until the closure date, but the creation of new threads and posts will not be possible.

You can still keep up to date with the latest news, get crucial updates and interact with other players via Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, and join the conversation with our massive community of warlords on Discord.

If there is any content you would like to preserve from the Conqueror’s Blade forums, including guides, fan-made content, and discussions, we invite you to do so before March 4th. You can share your content with even more of your fellow players through the #guides and #media Discord channels!

We’re happy to announce that after almost a month of timed slaughter, we can reveal the winners of The Rebel Camp Speedrun competition that concluded on Friday.

Teams of three were tasked with tearing through Rebel Camps, a simple objective for which the five fastest would be rewarded. Their members, times and winnings are detailed below:


Our thanks go to Shou and IceEagle for organising and administering the competition, on whose behalf we’d like to thank everyone who took part and congratulate all the winning teams.

Finally, our thoughts and prayers go out to the Rebels, who collectively had to put up with so much death and destruction over the course of the last month. They were very accommodating, we think you’ll agree.

With its redbrick walls in striking contrast to the surrounding swamplands, Riverlands Castle has the look of a place that’s been transported from elsewhere rather than built to dominate its impoverished landscape. However, as out of place as it looks, it’s nonetheless an imposing fortification that is as notable for its gardened courtyards as for its expensive clay tiles - requiring tactics suited as much to open battle as to close-quarter siege.

HISTORY

The current construction of Riverlands Castle is actually the fourth iteration of a fortress that has enjoyed something of a tragicomic history. The first two are only remembered because they both stood for only a few years before they sank into the swamp on which they were built. The third met the same ignominious end after it was set ablaze before toppling into its own foundations. Not to be deterred, the subsequent so-called King of Swamp Castle erected a fourth, the rather more stable construction that survives today. Whether it does so due to improved planning or building methods, or simply because the surrounding swamp has no more capacity, is something that only time can reveal.



PLAN OF ATTACK

• The broad battlements allow the defenders to set up deep positions and reinforce their lines quickly. However, there is a ladder to the north of the main gate that’s easy to overlook, as well as a rapid route to Capture Point B if you assault the wall via the southernmost ladder - one or both are worth considering.
  
• You don’t need to capture A and B to be able to assault C and while the extra time can be useful if you do, you may be able to deliver a more decisive blow by surging towards the final objective.
  
• If it’s well-defended the inner wall will be hard to breach. The gates are open but are easy to defend. Try using ladders instead.
  
• The final control point will be a tempting target as it sits on open terrain, but there are a number of areas from which the defenders can quickly take it back - not least the steps that lead down from the defender’s main resupply area. Try to remove the defenders from their positions around the control point before taking the control point itself.
  

DEFENSIVE MEASURES

• Because the attackers are forced to use one of three crossings to assault the outer .wall, you should be able to thin their numbers early on with the right artillery pieces in place.
  
• The attackers don’t gain a huge advantage by holding the outer battlements, which makes organising your defence around the initial control points much more viable. It’s important however to hold both for as long as possible, for if one is poorly defended and falls quickly, the attackers could move rapidly to take the final objective.
  
• Riverside Castle has some great defensive positions around each control point, especially for ranged units. A high wall overlooking the final objective is particularly effective for long-ranged archers and personal siege weapons to whittle the enemy down.
