Every week, one nation seizes The Crown — a realm-wide war buff for winning the last round of wars. But the crown is a target: everyone hunts the champion. Raise a living city, muster a persistent army, and throw your weight into the chase. Hold the crown, or take it. That's the Crownbane.

Start with a lone Keep and raise it into a cobbled town — counting houses, mines, granaries, barracks. Townsfolk walk the streets; the land expands as your Keep grows.

Muster troops that survive between wars and grow veteran the more they fight. Specialise — spearmen, archers, cavalry, battlemages — and support every front.

Commit a slice of your army to a contested front before the war day locks. The server resolves the clash and shifts the world's front line.

Watch each war play out over minutes — initiative rolls, unit turns, cavalry charges met by spear walls, arcane barrages — with a live battle log of every blow.
