Player rank

Rank is an important parameter affecting player's income of both gold and mana. Rank can double your income, or cut it down as far as to 1/5! You can view your current rank in Statistics and in Headquarters (see picture - red arrow).
Every good player should watch his or her rank and take care of it. After registration to a new league, all players have the same rank - the base rank of this league. With each recalculation, their rank is changing depending on their actions and their position in the current league ladder.

What is the purpose of rank?

Rank can be understood as something similar to fame.
Rank's main purpose is to protect players with just a few lands against those with many. If a player that has many lands repeatedly attacks "little" players, for every conquered land that player is losing rank, resulting in lower income. On the other hand, if a "little" player is courageous and attacks lands of some "large" one, the first is gaining rank with each successful attack, and with it his or her income will grow. This is also the reason why a single player can hardly conquer the whole map or a significant portion of it (unless most other players resign from league).

Rank encourages players to attack those that are close to equal in power, or stronger, and let live those that are weak.

What is affecting your rank?

Rank will increase:
  • if you successfully conquer a neutral (unoccupied) land or land belinging to Dark Elf minion
  • if you successfully conquer a land belonging to a player that has the same number of lands as you or more
  • during recalculation, if you are well placed in the league ladder (Statistics - Total)
Rank will decrease:
  • if your attack of any type (ransack, pillage, conquer) fails
  • if you successfully conquer a land belonging to a player that has less lands than yopu have
  • if you lose a land to enemy attack
  • during recalculation, if you are placed very low in the league ladder (Statistics - Total)
Rank will not increase infinitely, maximum is double of the base rabk of the league, lower border is 1/4 of the base rank. When you register to a new league, your rank will be reset to the base rank of this league.
Rank increases or decreases player's income (see Headquarters).
