※ for the Test Server, testing of Colony War will be carried out daily between 2000h ~ 2100h. Today's (3/12) test will be from 2200h ~ 2300h.
2. Added Colony Chain system.
- chains created from occupied areas can be checked from the Faction Information (Alt+T) window.
- chains with maximum 5 links can be created.
- from all colonies owned by the opposing party, colonies owned by the faction with the most colonies are most likely to be assigned as targets.
- on the 1st Week, 5 random colonies will be assigned to each faction as occupation targets 1 minute before the start of Colony War.
- if an assigned target is successfully occupied, a Colony Chain will be created and the target for the next link will be assigned 1 minute before the start of Colony War on the following week.
- if an assigned target in a chain is not occupied, the chain disappears.
- if an unassigned target is occupied, a new chain will be created if there is space.
(e.g. on 2nd-Week, the 3rd and 4th Chains are empty, and a non-assigned target of Lago Celeste is occupied, Lago Celeste will be registered to the 3rd-Chain automatically.)
- the same area can be assigned as occupation target up to a maximum of 3 times across 5 chains.
(e.g. a pattern of 1st-Week 1st-Chain Katovic Snowfield, 2nd-Week 4th-Chain Katovic Snowfield, 5th-Week 3rd-Chain Katovic Snowfield may be specified.)
- the same area does not get repeated assignment within a chain.
