The first major expansion for the Terra Militaris, the browser MMORTS game, has been announced and will be released within the next few weeks. The expansion, called Conquest, will include an epic new instance, two new PvP modes and a new auction house for players to trade gear.
Trials of the Champion, the new raid instance, contains 50 levels of play and can be challenged once every 24 hours. Each level of the instance will give players fame, EXP and items on completion and with 50 levels to be defeated, Trials of the Champion is an excellent raid for players looking to vastly increase their fame when aiming for the Domination or Imperial Eras in Terra Militaris’ end-game.
Along with the new instance, two new PvP modes have been added, Siege War and Famous City War. Siege Wars allow players to raid each other’s camps [for world advantage and pillaged loot], and Famous City Wars involve players taking the fight directly into the territories and cities of their enemies’ civilizations.
In addition a new auction house will open for players to trade gear, skills and powerful unique items. Players will also be able to obtain special forging items in order to boost the stats of weapons, armour and other items. A new lottery system called the ‘Orbs of Fortune’ will also launch with the expansion, which allows players to exchange coins for items and allows one free use per day, with the chance of winning rare heroes for the player’s Terra Militaris army.
The Conquest expansion also includes a huge range of fixed and balances and other significant changes. The game’s UI will be significantly overhauled to increase ease-of-use and visibility. Hotkeys will also be implemented for issuing commands and navigating menus quickly.
No exact date for the expansion has been set yet, however we expect it sometime in July. For now you can take a sneak peak at some of the changes coming by viewing the screenshots below.
