The latest changes and expansions are described here. They will later be moved to the respective pages pf the Wiki and described in more detail.
Changes in Lands & Lords 3.0
We have tried to remove several weak points of Lands & Lords and to make the game on the one hand simpler, and on the other hand more attractive by reducing the potential for frustration. These changes will be adapted as appropriate once we have acquired experience with the new changes.
Miscellaneous changes and bug-Fixes
- Changing the language is now possible in-game (below the resources display)
- Some bug fixes in the forum
Choose your style of play
- When registering or at the first login you can now choose to play as a settler or as a warrior.
- In the ranking and diplomacy screens, players will be marked by a respective icon to indicate settlers and warriors.
- Only warriors can choose campaigns.
- Score limits for conquering neutral fields without loss of honor: for warriors 714k, for settlers 1.5M
Changes in the military
- Spearmen have been added as novel unit. They have a high bonus when fighting horsemen. In the woods, a 70:20:10 spearmen army will best a 70:20:10 horsemen army. On open field, the horsemen army will by stronger but just slightly. A 70:20:10 swordmen army will easily beat a 70:20:10 spearmen army.
- Militias now consist of 20% swordsmen, 60% spearmen, and 20% bowmen.
- The penalty for attacking castles with horsemen has been drastically raised: A 70:20:10 horsemen army against a castle is now worse than a 70:20:10 swordmen army. When the castle is defended by spearmen it is practically impossible to conquer it with horsemen.
- Siege towers now offer room for 400 soldiers (previously 100) and only need 50 men for pulling (previously 50). This makes siege towers an interesting addition to trebuchets.
Changes in research
- Research 'medicine' was replaced by 'phalanx' (enhances spearmen).
- The following research paths are more expensive for warriors: peasantry, handcraft I, slots, administration
- The following research paths are more expensive for settlers: military, siege, seafaring
- The following research topics are more efficient for warriors: metallurgy I, metallurgy II, bellows, melting pot, large orge, hot forge, furnace
- The following research topics are more efficient for settlers: windmill, clay oven, fortified towers I, fortified towers II, wood usage, iron tools, pit saw, stone cutting, fortification, municipal office
Changes regarding heroes
- 'Regeneration' was replaced with 'Spearmaster'.
- The 'Healer' now additionally has the regeneration ability.
- Warriors don't have bowyer, spearmaster, builder, blessing, or healer.
- Settlers don't have mighty warrior, swordmaster, crusader, or blacksmith.
- Heroes are now 'immortal' - when a hero is annihilated, he will be 'broken' and will return to his hero's shrine (or he has to wait until a shrine becomes available). During this process, the hero will lose 10% of his xp points, but no levels. This means he will have to re-aquire the lost experience, before he can level again.
Changes in diplomacy
- Alliance now have a maximum of 3 players
- Diplomatic actions can only be performed by the liege and will be valid for the whole ally
- Vassals can only be acquired as long as no war or declaration of war are ongoing
- Cancelling an ally membership will take only 50 turns if both sides agree
- In the diplomatic messages, lieges will be indicated by the allyflag next to their name
- Wars are now temporary: raid: 50 turns, blitzkrieg: 200 turns, campaign: 400 turns(warriors only). Depending on the type of war declaration the honor limit is 70%, 80%, and 90% of the opponents score.
- In the diplomacy screen and the diplomacy popup, the possible honor losses for raid/blitzkrieg/campaign are shown. As soons as a declaration of war has been sent the honor loss/gain for conquering field/castles are shown. The honor for castles is indicated by a small castle icon.
- Only warriors can wage campaigns
Vereinfachung der Ehreberechnung
- Für die Ehreberechnung werden alle Punkte einer Allianz zusammengezählt. Alle weiteren Kriege oder KEs gegen den Verteidiger zählen mit zu den Punkten des Angreifers, wobei Aggressorenkriege nur mit 50% der Punkte zählen
Änderungen bei Spionen
- Wird ein General ermordet, ist der neue General 3 Stufen niedriger.
- Der neue General ist die nächsten 5 Runden vor Anschlägen geschützt
- Beim Aufdecken von Spionen ist die Ermüdung unabhängig davon, ob ein Gegner da ist oder nicht. Ist kein gegnerischer Spion da, wird dies durch eine eigene Meldung angezeigt.
Änderungen Kampfsystem
- Generäle werden nur mehr halb so stark gewichtet wie früher
- Bonus für numerische Überlegenheit wurde erhöht - Masse statt Klasse ist jetzt etwas leichter als früher. Der maximale Bonus wird bei einer Überlegenheit von 17:1 oder höher erreicht und beträgt 250
