Rainbow

A descriptive term for layering tactics, taking advantage of various movement rates in closing on the enemy and covering units of other ranges and speeds.

Used by many with insufficient understanding as more of a 'magic charm' to successful battle.

(more to come, analysis of unit movement and positioning, from base stats to optimized)

## Kinds of Rainbows

There are several different kinds of rainbows for different purposes. However, the Archer Rainbow is by far the most common and used one, as it is the cheapest to make and to lose.

## Archer Rainbow

A simple archer rainbow is designed to give the archers a meat shield out of cheap troops, in order to give the archers another round of firing at the enemy before they are killed.

### Archer Rainbow troops

A basic archer Rainbow consist of

* 1,000 warriors
* 1,000 scouts
* 1,000 swordsmen
* 1,000 pikemen
* 96,000 archers
* optionally either 1,000 workers or cavs - not recommended because workers are slow and cavalry is expensive

This means that archers are the most common and required troops for archer rainbows.

## Mech Rainbow

Mech Rainbows are designed for cities with millions of troops where an archer rainbow would hardly do anything. As Mechs (ballistae, rams, catapults) have higher range than enemy archers and archer towers (rams do not, but they have an incredible amount of life with a good hero). This makes them useful for taking down troops in a well-defended city.

### Mech Rainbow troops

#### Ballista Rainbow

A ballista rainbow consists of:

* 500 Workers
* 500 Warriors
* 500 Scouts
* 500 Pikemen
* 500 Swordsmen
* 500 Archers
* 500 Cavalry
* 500 Cataphracts
* 94,000 Ballista
* 2,000 Battering Rams

As you can see, this is a lot more powerful than an Archer rainbow (a.k.a. Archbow). It is useful to add a war ensign and fill the extra space with more ballistae if necessary.

#### Catapult Wave

A catapult wave consists of

* 2,000 Workers
* 2,000 Warriors
* 26,000 Ballista
* 20,000 Battering Rams
* 50,000 Catapults

This is a very expensive wave, as it requires a lot of resources and time to produce, but it extremely powerful, as the catapults have a very long range. However, they move very slowly, so adding rams lets the rams move just in front of the catapults, which gives the catapults a few more rounds of shooting at the enemy before they are attacked. It is recommended to have low honor for attacks like this, as you take large and expensive losses otherwise.
Treb Leveling

To Use Trebs to level your hero you will need a few things

* 1 person with a treb hero and vast quantities of stone and some food the ratio being about 1.5b stone for 1m scouts thats a high end guess to be safe and then a few billion food in the city as trebs need that to build and the troops your have in the valley need that to live
* Have your cities 1 mile away from each other
* Have any level and any type of valley also 1 mile away from yourself
* Have Enough scouts to go at it for awhile 10 million+

Once that is all set up you have the Person With the Treb hero take the valley below you or that's 1 mile away from you and reinforce it with 50k scouts or more doesn't really matter how many. Then they fill up their Feasting Hall with hero's including their treb hero. For this to work best the defending city(treb hero) should have no troops and gates open so you will get 156k exp per hit and greater chance at winning items such as Teleports, Amulets, Hero Huntings, Holy Waters, and Speakers.

To start the attacker needs to have 0 honor and its best to apply a Penicillin for 65% heal rate. The attacker hits the valley that is reinforced be the defender with 1 scout and a bad hero(to give them 3 honor for your 65% heal). Then he hits the defender with 22500 scouts and the hero you want to level. The loyalty on your hero will be at 1 very soon into this process which is why it is imperative that the defender keeps a full Feasting Hall. You can expect to see Experience for the hero to range from about 550k exp- 910k exp. It averages out to be about 670k exp per hit every 10 seconds. With a heal rate of 65% you will loose 7875 scouts per hit. Losses vs Levels not that bad considering going back to hitting tens and building archers solely for speed farming. In a 24 hour period its possible to get upwards of 8500+ hits in and at an average of 670k exp per hit thats 5.7 billion experience on a hero in a day.

Play with it a bit but honestly what i have laid out is the best way i have found to do it.

Now the Defender makes out like a bandit with great items plenty of random ports and amulets to spin at will plus he gets exp on his treb hero. Now if his treb hero is also the highest attack in the city then he gets 156k exp on it each hit as well if not it goes to the highest attack hero i personally try and have my treb hero being the highest attack so i get more exp on him.

Workshop

A **workshop** is required for researching Metal Casting, which is a prerequisite for some offense and defense mechanics. A level 1 workshop is needed for building Walls.

## History:

In the Early Bronze Age, some skilled workers gather to manufacture goods. Some apprentices worked for them in order to gain the necessary experience in a given profession. Apart from the larger factories, workshops were the only places of production in the days before industrialization.

## Hero Enhancements

Workshop is indispensable for city seizing and defenses mechanics and the researching of Hero Enhancement technologies. Since ancient times, war has lingered in this land, never ending. As time goes by, weapons and equipment have become a critical factor in winning the war. A powerful hero with a set of incredibly enhanced equipment can make your troops invincible.

The following enhancement technologies are researched at the workshop:

* Mount Training
* Charm
* Head Gearing
* Chest Gearing
* Gauntlets
* Legs Gearing
* Necklace Fabrication
* Ring Crafting
* Shoulder Gearing
* Back Gearing
* Belts
* Foot Gear
Surtr

**Surtr** is one of the codex entries in the lore section.

## Codex text

An ancient fire giant of Muspelheim. He forged a sword of fire, and fought--or will fight--- Thor and Odin.

Prophecy says "Surtr the Brave" will die at Ragnarok but take Asgard with him. Mimir says it's part of a grand cycle of death and rebirth, and Surtr accepts his fate.

SpellsWaterhouse10

The guitar is a plucked string instrument, usually played with fingers or a pick. The guitar consists of a body with a rigid neck to which the strings, generally six in number, are attached. Guitars are traditionally constructed of various woods and strung with animal gut or, more recently, with either nylon or steel strings. Some modern guitars are made of polycarbonate materials. Guitars are made and repaired by luthiers. There are two primary families of guitars: acoustic and electric.

Acoustic guitars (and similar instruments) with hollow bodies have been in use for over a thousand years. There are three main types of modern acoustic guitar: the classical guitar (nylon-string guitar), the steel-string acoustic guitar, and the archtop guitar. The tone of an acoustic guitar is produced by the vibration of the strings, which is amplified by the body of the guitar, which acts as a resonating chamber. The classical guitar is often played as a solo instrument using a comprehensive fingerpicking technique.

Electric guitars, introduced in the 1930s, rely on an amplifier that can electronically manipulate tone. Early amplified guitars employed a hollow body, but a solid body was found more suitable. Electric guitars have had a continuing profound influence on popular culture. Guitars are recognized as a primary instrument in genres such as blues, bluegrass, country, flamenco, jazz, jota, mariachi, metal, reggae, rock, soul, and many forms of pop.
Upper Lorraine

**Upper Lorraine** is a state that is located at the right edge of the map before it repeats on every Age II sever that Evony has. Coordinates for the corners of the state are:

 0,599 | 199,599

Upper Lorraine borders the following states:

## Historic Cities

Every state in Evony Age II has several Historic Cities. All states have several level 12s, a few 14s, and a level 16 state capital.

### List of Historic Cities in Upper Lorraine

And 121 level 12 Historic Cities. Look at this thread for a full list of Historic Cities.
Swordsman

## History:

As a serious military weapon, the sword had to wait for the development of ironworking and the first true swords date from around 1200 BC. Swords in antiquity and classical times tended to be relatively short since they were made of bronze and later because they were rarely called upon to penetrate armor. The classic Roman stabbing sword, the gladius, was only about 2 feet long. In later years, the gladius gave way to the spatha, which was a long slashing sword of the barbarians and the forerunner of the great broadswords of medieval Europe.

## General Information:

The strongest melee unit, they are effective against archers.

Travel Times

## Overview

The initial times it takes to travel from one place on the map to another depends on what units are being used, the research completed, and the construction completed. For basic rates of travel, see troops.

## Reduce Attack Travel Times

Research Compass to reduce travel time for all units.

Alternatively, use faster units for the attack.

## Reduce Transportation Travel Times

Research Compass to reduce travel time for all units.

Build and upgrade a Relief Station to reduce travel time while moving to an allied town or your own town.

Wheel of Fortune

This interface displays a set of 24 items that you may win during the current session with the Wheel of Fortune. The logic behind the selection and placement of the items is currently unknown.

When the Aries Amulet is invoked this interface is displayed. The images on the periphery of the interface are sequentially highlighted in clockwise order. If the button (which in the image says 'Continue', but while the highlight is moving says 'Stop' is pressed

## Items to Research

* If the stop button is pressed when a particular cell is highlighted (before the highlight starts to slow), will the highlight stop the same 'distance away' each time?

Result:
The stop button is only available when the user applies several Amulets through the in-game window that is shown when the player uses an item. The button is used to stop after a number of turns, for example when the user is bored of it. The stop button is replaced by a continue button when the user has won an item or other, and Evony wants the user to spend cents on more amulets.
Summary: the stop button is not used to stop the run, but to stop from applying more amulets.
Transport

A **Transport** is a kind of mission for delivering tangible resources.

* **Select Armies**  Select the soldiers you will be sending to transport goods

* + **Max**  Selects **all** soldiers including Scouts

* + **Clear**  Clears your selection

* + **Apply War Ensign**  Increases Rally Spot army limits by 25%, requires item (Not required for Transport)

* **Mission Requirements**  The minimum amount of food required to send on a transport mission to feed your army and the amount of resources your army is able to carry

* **Target**  Coordinates for the Transport mission

* **Mission**  The Mission type. Can be either Attack, Scout, reinforce or Transport

* **Hero**  Only required to attack, can be used with any mission type though.

* **Camp Time**  Time to stay in the Destination before returning.

* **Resources**  Resources to send with the Transport. Send an equal amount of food as per the Mission Requirements for the Transport Mission.

* **Estimated time based on the above settings**  Estimated arrival time to the destination

### Comments

* Scouts are a very quick way to transfer resources. 10 scouts can transfer 55 resources in 1/10th the time it takes for other comparable units.
* It will take the same amount of time to return as it will to deliver. There is no increase in time similar to an Attack return.
* Cavalry make excellent transporters before obtaining a Transporter, although they are much slower than scouts
What to do before/right after server maintenance comes

-by lord hamereditr (server na40), made on 3/12/2012

## Intro

Server maintenance is when the server is cleaned up. All player-built and abandoned barbarian cities (NPC's) are converted into flats, and all those small cities that players havent even played on which they haven't saved are turned into flats also. This is generally bad for the game.

## Food manangement

* When maintenance comes, all p[layer-built NPC farms will be instantly erased. This is the worst change that happens, and as a result 70% of all lvl 4-5 barbies are cleared becasue 70% of them are player-built. As you can reason out, less npc farms means less food for giant armies, which start to get hungry. There is also difficulty training troops too, as this puts an even larger burden on the few farms. Once I've seen a lvl 5 have only 120 food right after I scouted it. the more troops you have, the worse the situation you are in. Troops take more food while attacking, so attacks on players will be harder. But despite that, players start to extensively farm other players in desperation for food, and other resources that can be sold for food. After maintenance, food prices may double to triple and all food sold will be sold instantly. This is because food is few and far between, and also becasue players want to compete against others by setting higher prices. A few hours after the maintenance, this happens. So you want to sell all excess resources to buy more food. You want to buy when prices are low, and this is my formula for calculating the amount of food you may need:

Let F=Food to buy, Let U= current troop upkeep. Formula: F= U x 27 .
This is enough food to last you about a day of pure food consumption. Of course, it will take 2-3 days before the food crisis is over, but 27 hours is enough to last until food prices go more towards normal.
Wisdom Medal

a **Wisdom medal** increases a hero's loyalty by 30 when rewarded and is used for hero persuasion.

Wisdom Medals are one of the requirements for the following Titles:

 Marquis | 10

## Medal Rewards:

Medal Reward is an important encouragement system. A country gives it as award to those who make outstanding contribution to the nation. Beside as award given to heroes, it can also be used in the Persuasion of rival heroes.

 Wisdom Medal 1 | Wisdom Medal 1 | 100 | 10,000

## Medal Achievements :

 Acquire 100 Wisdom Medals | 200

## Where to Obtain:

High level valleys 7-10 or level 5+ NPC's.

The best way to get wisdom medals seems to be attacking lvl 5 NPCs with:lvl 10 archery , lvl 8 hbr , 500 ballistae.

Note that the drop rate for Lvl5 NPCs is very low, maybe .25% Look in valleys if NPCs aren't abundant near your city
Saxony

**Saxony** is a state that is located on the top edge of the map before it repeats on every Age II sever that Evony has. Coordinates for the corners of the state are:

Ranks

## General Information:

"Your city is thriving under your effort and your performance has drawn attention from the congress. Now if you can prepare some money to run for election, you can get promoted. It's the only way to achieve bigger accomplishment." - Quest Text

Advancing your rank will allow you to obtain higher titles which will allow you to build and/or conquer more cities.
There is a trade-off between rank and titles since both use the same medals. Consider this when choosing to promote your rank. Yes, the flashing red quest icon is annoying, but it may be worth the annoyance.
Romagna

**Romagna** is a state that is located at the bottom right corner of the map on every Age II sever that Evony has. Coordinates for the corners of the state are:

 600,799 | 799,799

Romagna borders the following states:

## Historic Cities

Every state in Evony Age II has several Historic Cities. All states have several level 12s, a few 14s, and a level 16 state capital.

### List of Historic Cities in Burgundy

Note: Romagna is the only state which does not have 8 level 14 HCs in it. There are no HCs at coordinates 693,759 as well as 759,759. This means that there are only 6 level 14s available in Romagna.

And 121 level 12 Historic Cities. Look at this thread for a full list of Historic Cities.
Shoulder Gearing

ShoulderGearing lvl 2

**Shoulder Gearing** technology enhances hero's attack, politics, or intelligence attribute.

## History

*Responsibilites gravitate to the person who can shoulder them.* ~ Tom Stoppard

As warfare advanced technologically, obvious weak points had to be protected as well. A broken shoulder could be as lethal as a sharp blow to the neck, and so armor was developed to protect this key area from easy attack.

## General Information

Pauldrons are excellent protective devices. Often sticking out with large slabs, they are a symbol of ferocity and a reminder of the wearer's qualities as a warrior. And it's often said its use offers more mental deterrent force than physical defense.

* Each level of Shoulder Gearing increases hero's attribute.
* Requires:
	+ Workshop Level 1
* Quest: Hero Gear:Forging Helmets
	+ Shoulder Gearing Lv.1 Award: Iron Ore 1, Fabric 1

\*The star level will be downgraded by one after the upgrade but the maximum star level will be increased by one.
Vanir

The **Vanir** are one of two groups of Norse gods, the other being the Aesir.

## Description

The Vanir are known for their magic and connection with nature.

While the Vanir remain mostly unexplored, they appear to be more benevolent that the Aesir, showing the ability to peacefully interact with other races.

## Known Vanir

* Freya
* Freyr
* Njörd

## Origins in Norse Mythology

In Norse myth, the Vanir are the second tribe of Norse gods, the first (and much better known) being the Aesir.
Vanaheim

**Vanaheim** is one of the realms in God of War.

## Description

Vanaheim is the home of the Vanir gods. It is one of three realms which Odin has blocked access for, and as such cannot be visited by Kratos or Atreus.

## Trivia

* Interestingly, when the Realm Travel Gate is set to Midgard, the bridge points to Vanaheim's Realm Tower.
Worker

## History

The majority of people in all civilizations throughout history have been workers. Whether engaged in farming, commerce, or industry, their actions form the economic infrastructure without which no nation can succeed. Over time, the endless activity of workers has reshaped the very surface of the land by mining hills, cutting down huge stretches of forest, and irrigating hostile terrain into fertile farmland.

## General Information

Designed for logistics transportation, they barely have any fighting ability.

## Uses

The main use for Workers is for building new cities. Workers are not very good attacking units, as they have barely any attack and are very slow. They are commonly used as resource transportation units by beginners who do not yet have Transporters. With level 10 Logistics they can carry up to 2,000 resource, whereas 1 transporter at level 0 logistics can carry 5,000 resource, and 10,000 resource with level 10 logistics. While workers are bit faster, transporters are still the better transportation unit as they have a greater capacity and more life, making them better suited for plundering.

Modi

Family | Ymir (ancestor)†
Odin (grandfather)
Baldur (uncle)†
Thor (father)
 Actor | Nolan North

**Modi** is one of the sons of Thor, and a supporting antagonist in *God of War*.

## History

Modi is the younger son of Thor, the elder being Magni (the two are stated to have different mothers, the identities of whom are never stated). As children, he and Magni freed Thor from under the corpse of the Jötnar Hrungnir after the giant had fallen on Thor in depth. To Modi's anger, Magni received all credit for the feat(due to him being blonder), a fact he would come to resent.

Modi is known to have taken part in the Aesir-Vanir war, having killed at least one Vanir god.

### Hunting Kratos

Magni and Modi were ordered to help their uncle Baldur hunt Kratos. Neither of the sons of Thor knew why Odin wanted Kratos, nor did they care. After some time searching fruitlessly (the only thing discovered was that Kratos was traveling with a child), the three went to Mimir for assistance. When Odin's former advisor refused to help, Modi promised that he would return to remove Mimir's remaining eye before departing. While the sons of Thor were unable to track Kratos or his son Atreus thanks to Freya's protection rune, Magni deduced their location when Thamur's hammer fell, and dragged Modi along. The two Aesir eventually found their targets, and a fight began when the two refused to come along peacefully.

During the battle, Modi was noticeably more arrogant than his brother, and goaded Atreus with insults about the boy and his mother. However, Kratos eventually managed to kill Magni, leaving the shocked and terrified Modi unable to do anything but retreat.

## Personality

Modi was perpetually bitter about unfairly living in his brother's shadow.

## Abilities

* **Superhuman Strength:** Modi possessed incredible strength, being able to lift the corpse of Hrungnir off of his father, alongside the help of Magni.

## Origins in Norse Mythology

In Norse legend, Móði is a son of Thor, stated to be one of the survivors of Ragnarök, alongside his brother Magni.

Miriam

*This article is a stub. You can help Yonder: The Cloud Catcher Chronicles Wiki by expanding it.*

**Miriam** is one of the Residents in Yonder.

## Description

**Miriam** walks around in the centre of Cinderton. She can be found near Trader: Cinderton. Her skin is light, her hair blonde. She wears it in 3 pigtails and 2 fish braids. She wears a blue brown top with pelt collar but no sleeves. Her trousers are brown.
Atreus

*This article is a stub. You can help God of War Wiki by expanding it.*

**Atreus** is Kratos' son and the deuteragonist of *God of War*.

## History

Atreus was born to the Greek god Kratos and the giantess Laufey (although Kratos knew her only as "Faye", and believed her to be mortal). Faye wished to name the boy "Loki", but agreed to name the boy Atreus in honor of a soldier whom Kratos fought alongside and respected.

Both parents kept their true nature hidden from their son, and Atreus grew up believing himself mortal as a result.

### Beginning the Journey

Faye eventually died of an unknown cause, with her final wish to have her ashes scattered from the highest peak in the Nine Realms.

## Personality

Atreus is a curious and intelligent boy, displaying courage and resilience if not the best instincts.

Due to his age, Atreus often lacks control of his emotions, and his demeanor shifts several times along the journey as a result.

## Abilities

Due to Atreus's youth, his divine powers are still emerging

* **Archer:** Atreus is proficient in archery, having been taught by his mother.
* **Limited Telepathy:** Atreus is capable of sensing the thoughts of animals, such as trolls or Brok's beast.
* **Polylingualism:** Atreus has an unrivaled capacity for languages. He is capable of reading and speaking numerous tongues, and has the capacity to learn languages at an astonishing rate: he learned how to speak the World Serpent's language simply from listening to a few conversations between the Serpent and Mimir.

## Origins in Norse Mythology

In Norse mythology, Loki is the god of mischief, often portrayed as both an enemy and ally to the Aesir. He is the father of Jörmungandr and Hel.

The name "Atreus" refers to a king in Greek mythology of the same name.

## Trivia

* The words that Atreus shoots while firing arrows are connected Norse words.
Odin

**Odin** is the king of the Aesir gods.

## History

Upon the breaking of the protective enchantments over the Wild Woods, Odin sent his son Baldur to find Laufey and bring her to Asgard, likely to force her to reveal the way to Jötunheim. This would end in disaster and tragedy: not only did three Aesir fall as a result of the hunt (Baldur, and both of Thor's sons), but the hunt set off the chain of events that led to the beginning of Fimbulwinter, the winter immediately preceding Ragnarok.

## Personality

Odin is described by Mimir as a paranoid, controlling, vengeful, and tyrannical maniac.

## Origin

In Norse mythology, Odin is the king of the Aesir gods, and certainly viewed in a more positive light than his portrayal in the game.
Muspelheim

Valkyries: | 1

**Muspelheim** is one of the Nine Realms.

## Description

Muspelheim is the Realm of Fire, making up one of the two primordial realms along the Yggdrasil (the other being Niflheim). As one would expect from this description, it is a fiery, hostile realm consisting of active volcanoes and ash. It serves as the home of the fire giant Surtr.
Niflheim

Valkyries: | 1

**Niflheim** is one of the nine realms.

## Description

Niflheim is described as the Realm of Fog, and one of the two primordial realms (the other being Muspelheim). Originally a land of relentless cold, it has warmed somewhat with the passage of time. However, due to Ivaldi's curse, the mist that fills this realm is now poisonous and noxious.
Ring Crafting

*This article is a stub. You can help Evony Wiki by expanding it.*

 RingCrafting lvl 2

**Ring Crafting** technology enhances hero's attack, politics, or intelligence attribute. A hero can equip up to two rings, doubling the effect.

## History

*A ring is a halo on your finger.* ~ Doug Copeland

From the earliest times, rings have been symbols of royalty. In the middle ages, rings often bore a crest of a house or family and were an expression of loyalty and commitment to the wearer's liege, while simultaneously expressing that lord's trust in the wearer.

## General Information

As a jewel, a ring can be seen as a seal, and the symbol of power. On the finger of a hero, the ring emits a blinding sparkle.

* Each level of Ring Crafting increases hero's attribute.
* Requires:
	+ Workshop Level 1
* Quest: Hero Gear:Forging Rings
	+ Ring Crafting Lv.1 Award: Iron Ore 1, Fabric 1

\*Each time you upgrade an item, the **current** star level will be downgraded by one, but the **maximum** star level will be increased by one.
Trap

## General Information:

**Traps** are a type of Fortified unit used to kill attacking troops. Like all Evony defenses it is only effective in huge numbers. The trap is a good defense if your Beacon\_Tower gives you an early warning. They are quick and cheap. But the down side to traps are that they are not very effective.
Construction time is affected by Construction Research and your Hero's Politics Skill, using the formula: Construction Time = BaseTime\*(0.9^Const)\*(0.995^Poli)

## Other Information

Trap is a device set up to be trigged by an unsuspecting victim. As the word "trap" implies, they usually have some form of bait designed to lure the victim towards it. In other cases, however, the trap is set to be trigged when the victim performs an everyday action such as opening the door. Trap is usually made of wood which cheap in price and easily accessed.

* 15-20% of all defenses totaled should be traps, as they only stop workers, warriors, scouts, archers, and swordsmen.

## Anti-Trap Methods

The trap is designed to kill an even number of all infantry, so 100 warriors, 100 swordsmen, and 100 archers were sent to attack, and the wall had 100 traps, then the attackers would lose roughly 33 warriors, swordsmen, and archers.

However, many people have started to send a large number of warriors in one wave, then the rest of the army in the next wave. This causes the traps to only kill warriors, and not the more expensive troops.

It has also been found that if you send 100 warriors at 100 traps, then 100 warriors will die. However if you send 200 warriors then only about 90 warriors will die, 300 and less will die. (This is a rough estimate and the actual numbers could greatly vary.)
Uprising

An uprising is a mission that a colonized player can issue in order to regain his/her freedom and independence from a Suzerain that has colonized their city.

## Basic Information

In order to successfully do an uprising, a player has to do the following:

1. Hover the mouse over the colonized city in the sidebar of the user interface. The colonized city is shown with a chain on the left side
2. A small rectangle with the suzerains city will pop up just to the left of the mouse. Click on it
3. This will open an in-game window in the middle of the game area. Click the button which says Uprise. This will start the uprise!

Then, an 8-hour period will start, during which both sides can do things in order to try and win the upcoming battle.

Some of the things that can be done by the suzerain include:

* Increasing the suppression setting.
* Reinforce the colonizing city to increase the amount of troops that are going to fight.
* Get reinforcements from the alliance

Some of the things the colonized player can do include:

* Reinforce the colonized city.
* Ask for reinforcements from the alliance
* Ask a stronger player in the alliance to do a backdoor attack on the suzerain to kill some of the suzerains troops.

At the end of the 8 hour period, an uprise battle is fought. This battle determines whether the uprising was successful or not. If the suzerain wins, then the colony will stay a colony. However, if the colonized player wins, then the city regains it's freedom and does not have to pay tribute in form of resource production anymore.
Brok

**Brok** is one of the characters in the game God of War. He is the brother of Sindri.

## Appearance

As a dwarf, Brok is about the size of a human child. He is bald, albeit with a full beard, and has blue skin, attributed by Sindri to overexposure to silver.

## Personality

The opposite of his brother, Brok is crude, crass, and cranky. He curses regularly in conversation, and is frequently impolite. However, underneath this brash exterior, Brok is well-meaning and cares for those close to him.

Like his brother, Brok dislikes the Aesir, and regrets crafting Mjolnir for Thor.

## Abilities

* **Master Craftsman:** Brok is a talented blacksmith and craftsman, even for a dwarf: his skill is rivaled only by his brother. However, Brok will only craft weapons or armor, seeing it as "ladylike" to w
* **Dwarven Magic:** As a dwarf, Brok has abilities unique to his race.
	+ **Realm Travel:** Brok can travel across realms at will. Stepping into the realm between realms will result in him being invisible to most species (although dragons are immune to this).
	+ **Magic Detection:** Brok can sense magic in the form of scent: when Kratos came to Týr's Temple with the Blades of Chaos, he immediately remarked that Kratos "reeked of foreign magick".

Jötunheim

**Jötunheim** is one of the realms in God of War.

## Description

Jötunheim is the homeland of the Jötunn race. Due to the Aesir's slaughter of the giants, Jötunheim was cut off from the rest of the realms.

## History

Jötunheim was founded by the giant Bergelmir, who, along with his wife, were the only giant to survive the flood from the slain Ymir's blood.

### The Journey

When Laufey passed, she instructed her husband and son to scatter her ashes from the highest peak in the nine realms. This wish would lead her family to uncover the way to Jötunheim, and learn the truth about Laufey's origins.
Truce

Truce is the military status of a city. During this time, you
* cannot attack anything but valleys and NPCs and
* others cannot attack you.

The status of truce is allowed in the game by two ways:

1. Using the item Truce Agreement
2. Being new to the game, giving you the 7 day beginner's protection program.

>
> Once applied, your city will have 12 hours peacetime. In this period, you can neither **perform attack or be attacked by others**. If troops marching to city or you have dispatched troops, you can't use this item.
>

After 12 hours of truce you got a 12h cooldown period in which you can't use another truce agreement.
REFACTOR/Barracks

Warfare has been a recurring phenomenon throughout the history of mankind,and it continues to plague the world today. Although war is not a desirable situation, it is important that even the most peaceful of societies be prepared for the possibility of war. When warring narions are closely manpower, the army with the best training usually wins battles.

## Usage

The **Barracks** is a Building that all Units, except Heroes are Trained at. There are two Unit Types: Attack and Support. Depending on the Level of the Rally Spot depends on how many troops can be sent out to Battle, however, there is no limit on how many troops can remain inside the Walls of the City.

## Balance Information

Training Units at the Barracks is the only Building that allows Queueing.
Laufey

**Laufey the Just**, known to her husband and son as **Faye** was the Jötunn wife of Kratos and the mother of Atreus.

## History

### Death

Eventually, Laufey passed away from unknown causes. Before her death, she asked Kratos to use specific trees for her cremation, and spread her ashes from the highest peak in the realms with Atreus: the latter wish was to ensure that Atreus learned of his destiny.

## Personality

While Laufey is never seen in person, she is described by everyone who knew her as kind and benevolent, with a strong sense of justice.
Freya

Baldur (son, deceased)
 Actor | Danielle Bisutti

**Freya** (referred to as the **Witch of the Woods** prior to her identity being revealed) is a Vanir goddess, and one of the main characters in God of War.

## Personality

Freya is characterized by her devotion to those she cares for. Despite her caring nature, Freya has shown to not be a good mother: while her desire to protect her son came from a place of love, her efforts destroyed her relationship with Baldur and turned him into a monster. Freya, while acknowledging her mistakes as a mother, ultimately refused to undo her mistakes with Baldur. Her efforts with Atreus indicate her desire to make up for her mistakes.

## Abilities

Even in her exiled state, Freya is a powerful Vanir goddess.

* **Master Healer:** Freya is proficient at crafting salves and remedies for all manner of ailments. Many of these remedies can be
* **Ancient Magic:** Freya uses a variety of ancient and versatile Vanir magic. This magic allows her to, among other things, reanimate corpses (or in the case of Mimir, severed heads), create vines to entangle enemies,

### Weaknessses

* **Odin's Curse:** Freya has been cursed by Odin in retaliation for leaving him. As a result, Freya cannot harm another living creature even in self-defense. Additionally, she cannot enter any realm beyond Midgard for longer than a few minutes: after a certain point, she will be forcibly transported back into Midgard.

Thor

**Thor** is the son of Odin, father of Magni and Modi, the Norse God of Thunder, and one of the most well-known (or notorious) Aesir.

## History

### Tales

The following tales are all accounts of Thor's cruelty.

#### Hrungnir

One day, Thor found the giant Hrungnir walking in Midgard.

### God of War

Thor has yet to be encountered personally by either Kratos or Atreus. However, his sons, Magni and Modi, joined his brother Baldur in hunting after the god and his son.

When Magni was killed by Kratos, Thor took his anger out on Modi, blaming him for Magni's death and branding him a coward for retreating.

## Personality

While Thor has not yet been seen personally, all evidence indicates he is a bloodthirsty and violent sociopath.

## Abilities

Thor is an immensely powerful god, second among the Aesir only to Odin.

## Origins in Norse Mythology

In Norse mythology, Thor is one of the most prominently mentioned gods.

Tips

The following is a list of tips in displayed on the menus in God of War.

## List of tips

* After receiving new crafting recipes, consult the Resources tab for information where to locate crafting resources.
* Brok and Sindri are master blacksmiths. Visit their Shops and use resources looted from the world to upgrade and craft new equipment.
* Different types of armor allow for different ways to approach combat. Experiment with crafting to find armor that best suits your play style.
* Enemies have a Power Level next to their Health Bar. This indicates how powerful they are in combat.
* Having trouble defeating a difficult enemy? Some equipment enhances your ability to generate Rage during combat.
* Hitting enemies in the back or into walls inflicts more STUN damage.
* If you're having trouble with a certain enemy, consult the Bestiary in the Codex
* Throwing the Leviathan Axe at an enemy lying on the ground will keep it there longer. Use this to set up opportunities for an Executioner's Cleave!
* Valkyries are optional
* Visit the Shop to upgrade Kratos and Atreus's weapons with resources looted from the world.
* WEAKENED enemies have weaker attacks, take more damage, and stagger more easily.
Leviathan Axe

The **Leviathan Axe** is a two-handed battle axe, used by Laufey before being passed down to Kratos.

## Description

The Leviathan Axe is a two-handed battle axe. It was forged by Brok and Sindri for Laufey, in hopes that she would help undo their mistake in creating Mjolnir. Following Laufey's death, it was passed onto her husband Kratos.

## Gameplay

The Leviathan Axe is Kratos's default weapon. It is imbued with ice elemental power, making it particularly effective against fire-based enemies. The Axe can be thrown at targets and summoned back to the user's hand at will: the targets its hits will be frozen until the axe is summoned back, making it useful both for combat and puzzle solving.

However, due to the Axe's frost nature, it is ineffective against Hel-Walkers (as they hail from the frigid Helheim).

### Upgrades

By finding Frozen Flames, Kratos can have the Axe upgraded by either Brok or Sindri, which will permanently upgrade his attack power.

* **Default (Level 1):**
* **Level 2:**
* **Level 3:**
* **Level 4:**
* **Level 5:**

## Trivia

* The Leviathan Axe is never referred to in-game by its name.
* The ability to summon the axe came as a result of game-testing. The director Cody Barlog insisted on being able to throw the axe: however, it became a hassle for testers to run back and retrieve the axe after throwing it. The ability to summon the axe back, similar to Thor's ability to summon Mjolnir, was created as a solution to this problem.
