Infinite Borders - Eastern Warfare Strategy Game

Greetings, mighty Lords!

Since the launch of the Clash of Chariots season, various ancient siege equipment has gained popularity among Lords in the strategic INFINITE BORDERS battlefield. Among them are the swift Fortress Chariot and Bridge-Laying Chariot, the city-crushing Catapult and Siege Chariot, as well as the steadfast Iron Wall, Blockhouse, and City Walls for defense. Additionally, Governors of Key Towns and State Capitals utilize the Lu Gong Chariot and Wooden Ox to command allies in coordinated operations.

To provide Lords with a more streamlined experience of siege equipment and further enrich the strategic and collaborative gameplay of the Clash of Chariots season, we will implement the following optimizations and adjustments this season:

    [Siege Equipment Construction Simplification]

· Remove the Siege Weapon House in the Main City and the in-city siege equipment construction process.

· Remove the storage cap for siege equipment and the active Destroy function.

· Siege and Defense Equipment will be unlocked progressively through Policies as Fame increases. Once unlocked, they can be built directly on Territories on the Full Map.

· Governor's siege equipment will be unlocked after constructing the Governor House in Key Towns or State Capitals. The Lu Gong Chariot can be used directly during a Rally, while the Wooden Ox can be built on the Full Map once the Governor-initiated Food Collection reaches 100% progress.

    [Siege Equipment Balance Adjustments]

· Catapult

· Modify the Catapult to only damage enemy troops, buildings, and land within range, without harming allies or the player's own units.

· After the Main City is conquered, Catapults cannot be moved or used.

· Siege Chariot

· Adjust the Siege Chariot's movement mechanics: Previously, it could move to the player's Territories within 1 tile; now it can move to the player's Territories within 5 tiles that are in non-truce state.

· Arcuballista

· Remove Arcuballista

· Blockhouse

· Reduce the Blockhouse level cap from 5 to 1. It will no longer need upgrades. A Lv.1 Blockhouse has 150 Durability.

· Remove the function to assign Heroes to Blockhouses. Blockhouses will only have a fixed System Garrison of 6000 Strength.

· City Walls

· City Walls diagonally adjacent to allied or player-owned walls will now connect, allowing Garrison Troops within the linked range to share Garrison coverage.

· Reduce the Construction Value cost of City Walls from 80 to 40, and their Durability Cap from 2000 to 1000.

· Wooden Ox

· Wooden Ox Effect Replacement: Military Facilities within a 5-tile (11*11) range centered on the Wooden Ox will have their Draft Line capacity increased to accommodate more troops. Additionally, these facilities can use the Reservists from the city affiliated with the troops to draft immediately.

    [Added Troop Commandeer Feature]

From the unbreakable bonds of honor among wanderers to the mutual aid among comrades, the ties of trust and solidarity have always been the vital bonds that unite people. Building upon the bounty system, we will introduce the Troop Recruitment feature in the Clash of Chariots season, allowing Lords to better support one another.

After Rise of Kingdoms concludes, Forces can register eligible troops. Other Forces in the current State can view the draft list for troops recruitable in the State, and spend Gilt Jade and War Merit to recruit troops of their choice.

Once a Force recruits troops, the recruited troops will be mobilized to the Main City and can be used like any other Main City troops for actions such as March, Garrison, and Draft.

While the troops are recruited, their original Force cannot use them but will receive Jade as compensation.

Additionally, if a Force cannot find suitable troops to recruit, they can post a recruitment request. Other Forces in the current State can volunteer their troops to fulfill the request, enabling both parties to achieve recruitment more efficiently.

After the Troop Recruitment feature launches, a Force can simultaneously recruit one troop or have one troop recruited by others at a time.

The brand-new "Clash of Chariots" season will open for registration in the Preparation Area on November 13, 2025, and officially launch on November 28. We hope Lords can freely utilize equipment in the season—whether for sieges or defense—and experience more authentic and comprehensive strategic battles and teamwork in ancient warfare. Thank you for your love and support of INFINITE BORDERS!

There is no other land than the king's land; within the INFINITE BORDERS, all are subjects of the king.

A ruler of all families lives up to the times!
