Keeping the troops well fed will grant additional bonuses. With the expansion, building and research levels will be increased to 25, and the hero level cap will be set to 120. Firearms will also allow a faster era progression.

 

 

Building and researching will see an overhaul, too: Waiting times for building and completing researches will be replaced with a cool down feature. Training troops will be immediate. Firearms’ new arena ranking system allows players to choose and challenge players of a specific rank for the top position, and gives them the opportunity to win rewards every day, depending on their standing.

 

 

Also completely new to Terra Militaris is the 10 vs. 10 battle system, in which heroes of the same nation team up to fight in groups of 10 against each other. Only heroes are allowed to participate, the minimum level to enter these special battles is 50.
