Corebound
You are not alone
Until now every account had a galaxy of its own. From this version on, commanders share one.
What changes
- One galaxy, six start zones. New accounts join a shared galaxy; when it is full, the next one opens.
- Other commanders on the map. Their sectors show in their colour, with their name in the sector panel.
- Attacking commanders. Their sectors are defended by a militia that grows with their command bridge. Win, and the sector changes hands.
- Losing sectors. While you are away, others can take your sectors as well. The report tells you who it was.
Protection
Nobody should log in to an empty map. So the neighbours of a lost sector are shielded for 8 hours, your home sector can never be taken, and newcomers are protected for 72 hours or until they hold 10 sectors. Attack another commander yourself, and your own protection ends.
Fair battles
Battle seeds now come from the server and include a secret. You still fight every battle in your browser – but nobody can calculate the outcome before deciding to attack.
Next
The empty start zones will not stay empty for long: commanders who never sleep are on their way.
