CBW 2.0 Sneak Peek
Here’s a rundown of some of what has changed in the new format.
CBW 2.0
How does it work?
Players must select their race, kingdom information, as well as species, culture, and language traits. Once all information is collected, the Map will be filled with your creations and the first update will go out.
Gameplay
As your kingdom survives through the years, you’ll earn World Tokens. These allow you to invest in your kingdom’s infrastructure as well as spec into more traits including religion.
Infrastructure & Resources
Resources are the primary liquidity for your kingdom as they’re used to purchase most things.
You may invest in:
Agriculture
Production
Mining
Military
Education
You will have to achieve a balance of all these resources if you want to be able to make big purchases. Either by upgrading your infrastructure or by trading with other kingdoms.
Investing in a particular resource will increase its level (0-5) as well as double the cost for the subsequent upgrade.
You will invest in infrastructure using World Tokens.
Kingdom Level
Now instead of a global World Tokens income rate, each kingdom will have its own income rate. Depending on how many upgrades you’ve made to your kingdom’s infrastructure. Kingdoms start at Lv0 and can reach a max Lv4
Lvl | Rate | Req
Lv0 - 1/50y - N/A
Lv1 - 2/50y - 3 Upgrades
Lv2 - 3/50y - 6 Upgrades
Lv3 - 4/50y - 10 Upgrades
Lv4 - 5/50y - 15 Upgrades
Rebellions
Since wars, alliances, and rebellions won’t happen randomly anymore, we need a way to make rebellions interesting but fair.
Scenario 1: Captured Kingdom
Now if a Kingdom is defeated in war, so long as their culture persists they may remain in play. They will not have any control other than to initiate a rebellion, in an attempt to regain their sovereignty. They may even request aid from other nations.
Should a rebellion take place, it will always be in the city that is located geographically closest to the original country’s capital.
Scenario 2: Story Based
Should a Kingdom choose to do so, they may initiate a rebellion in their own kingdom. This can only be done if they have another player lined up to take control of the newly formed kingdom.
