Hard: A truly difficult game experience

In the game's words

A template featuring classic gameplay on a compact, resource‑scarce map for eight players. Faced with a severe shortage of troops and resources, you’ll need to leverage a few outer dwellings to build an army capable of crushing your opponents.

How it is won

  • Capital Hold: Capture the opponent’s starting city and hold it for a set number of in‑game days to win.
  • Control must be held for 3 day(s) to win
