Militias

Players may join the militia of the town they are a citizen of. Unlike citizenship, joining the militia will not make all your characters member of the militia. Only the character that joins the militia via the militia stone will become a militia member.

Joining the militia allows players to freely fight members of opposing militias, enter opposing militia strongholds, attack and capture opposing heroes and participate in Vorshun world war battles.

Players enrolled in the militia are able to earn silver by capturing heroes and killing opposing militia members. This silver may be spent on special town-associated clothing dyes, unique clothing items, armor dyes, banners, rare items and other special items.

A player may remove themselves from the militia at any time but it will take 48 hours for the revocation to lift.

Joining the militia enables the following things:

  • Places the player at war and flags opposing towns militia members as enemies.
  • Allows the player to interact in the hero capture system.
  • Allows the player to spend silver on town militia reward items.
  • Militia members may not be healed or have any other beneficial acts casted upon them by anyone other than fellow militia members.
  • Militia members may not recall directly into their own town if their hero is missing.
  • Militia members may not recall directly into opposing town’s borders.

Militia points and ranking system:

  • Upon joining the militia the player will have 0 militia points.
  • A player gains points by killing opposing town militia members.
  • For every point a member loses upon death, his killer gains the same number of points.
  • A player may gain up to 99 points or down to a deficit of -5.
  • For every 10 points a player above 0 a militia member has, they will lose an additional point upon death. Meaning a player with 10-19 points, they would lose 2 points upon death. If he had 50-59 points, he would lose 6.
  • A player may not gain points from the same victim back to back.
  • A player will not lose points if they have died within the last 10 minutes.

 

Ranking is based upon the players militia point total relative to other militia members.

Militia reward system:
Militia members may obtain silver that can be spent on rares, unique items and vanity items, such as special town-based hues for their clothing, weapons and armor.

Obtaining silver:
There are two ways of obtaining silver:
– Killing players of opposing town militias.
A player shall gain 30 silver per kill of opposing militia member.
– A player cannot gain silver from the same player killed back to back.
– A player cannot gain silver from a player that has died within the past 10 minutes.
– Assisting in the capture or defense of town heroes.
– By successfully kidnapping the town hero into their town’s prison.
– The silver will be awarded to all players of the towns militia within the capture region at the moment of capture.

Town Militia Commander:
The minister of any given town may appoint a town militia commander.
This player must be a citizen of that town AND in the town militia.
If the player revokes his citizenship or enrollment in the militia the minister may appoint a new commander.
Commanders are able to set a tax rate on silver generated by his militia, up to 50%. This percentage may not be changed more than every 24 hours.
The silver gained by this tax rate may be spent on town guard NPCs to defend the towns hero and/or prison as well as broadcast messages to the militia.

Commanding Lords

Ministers have the ability to appoint any player within his towns militia as Commanding Lord to serve as the leader for their town’s militia. The Commanding Lord has a handful of responsibilities, duties and abilities. Commanders are responsible for setting the taxation rate for silver that is distributed to each of his fellow militia member upon their kills and hero captures. This silver …
