Million Lords

The World is massive with many little islands connected by Land Bridges or Stone/Wooden Bridges.

There are many different types of biomes, each islands have one biome; Plains, Savanna, Deserts, and Tundras. Each having their own forests, mountains, and hills.

The currency of this world uses "Gold Coins". It is used in everything from upgrading city and city defense to daily transactions.

There are two races on Siaxela: Humans and Beastkin.

Humans: The humans live everywhere and are the most populated and dominant race, as despite having no special abilities like the beastkin, they are adaptable people as they live along with the beastkin. They have a lifespan of 100 years and the average height: Men: 6ft, Woman: 5ft.

Beastkin: Anthropomorphic creatures that look like humans in every way but have animal ears and tails, along with horns and antlers for the few specific born. Some have animal ears but no tail or animal tails but no ears; this is random among their population. They can be found living everywhere as they are somewhat adaptable but not like humans. Examples of these are: cat, dog, mouse, fox, wolf, rabbits, etc, etc. They have a lifespan of 200 years.

Average height vary between what species they are from 8'0" (Bear Beastkin) to 4'0" (Squirrel Beastkin). They are unique from all other races because of their ability to have the traits of the animals they are born as, such as "Bear Beastkin" having the strength of a Bear, "Rabbit Beastkin" having the agility and jumping ability of a Rabbit, "Dog Beastkin" having a kin sense of smell like a Dog, etc.

The Technology of this world is late medieval but gunpowder weapons do not exist.

Steel Plated Armor, Weapons, Tools, are the primary items used by every soldier and man.

Knights are the heavy cavalry of the era, while infantry are the cheaper option for those who can't have knights.

The weapons used in war are "Shortswords", "Bastard Swords", "Longswords", "Greatswords", "Daggers", "Spears", "Poleaxes", "Halberds", "Pikes", "Warhammers", "Maces", and "Flails".

Long range weapons that are used by everyone is the "Longbows", "Composite Recurve Bows", and "Crossbows".

The Shields used are mostly four types: "Heater Shields", "Pavise Shields", "Kite Shields", and "Buckler Shields".

Siege Engines used are the "Trebuchet", "Ballistas", "Mangonels", "Siege Towers", "Battering Rams", and "Mantlet" (A portable wall, used for stopping projectiles like arrows. Some versions have wheels for enhanced mobility). Saping/Siege Tunneling to destroy the foundation of the castle.

Magic exist but it is unexplainable and not many know how it works. Gems have a magical properties that boost equipment (see gems) and temples which grants your clan buffs (see temples and templars).

Magic is rarely used in combat due to the time it takes to train a mage and long casting time. So if a mage dies, it is a lost of time and money, and as such, Mages are used more in civil service like medicine, alchemy, and siege craft. As well as giving a magic spell to boost the physical abilities of soldiers like increased strength, speed/agility, stamina, and endurance.

Cities in Million Lords are the foundation of a player's empire, determining their economic strength, military capabilities, and ranking in the game. Every player starts with a single city, but expansion is essential for gaining dominance. The more cities a player controls, the greater their influence, as each city generates resources used to recruit troops and upgrade defenses. Since the game is built around continuous conquest, managing and strategically positioning cities is key to long-term success.

City Basics

Each player starts with a single city, which can be upgraded and defended. Cities provide resources needed for troop recruitment and expansion. The more cities you control, the higher your ranking and potential dominance.

Expanding Your Territory

Cities can be acquired in two main ways: capturing neutral cities or taking them from other players. Neutral cities, often found in newly unlocked areas or at the start of a season, provide an easy way to expand territory without direct conflict. However, the true test of a player's strength lies in conquering enemy cities, which requires a well-planned attack, troop superiority, and knowledge of the opponent’s defenses. Teleportation items can be used to reposition cities closer to targets or safer locations, allowing for strategic movement across the map.

The number of cities a player can hold is virtually unlimited, but expansion comes with risks. Rapidly taking over cities might overextend a player's reach, making them vulnerable to counterattacks. Stronger opponents can exploit weakly defended territories, launching assaults to reclaim valuable cities. This creates a dynamic battlefield where controlling cities is not just about taking them but also about holding them against relentless attacks.

Magic Gems are a crucial resource in Million Lords, used to enhance your equipment and boost your strategic advantages. They provide various bonuses that can improve your empire’s strength, making them an essential part of a lord's progression.

Gems can be equipped into sockets on your main equipment to enhance stats.

The rarity of your equipment determines the number of sockets available. For example Legendary items can hold up to three sockets.

Lower-tier equipment has fewer sockets.

Temples are neutral factions, with 10k neutral troops sitting inside it. To claim it for your clan, simply defeat the 10k troops and the temple will be yours! Once taken, the buffs are automatically applied to yourself and everyone within your clan.

You can own unlimited temples, however the buff's do not stack.
