As the TurnBasedThursdayFestival soon wraps up, we're going out in style — with blood, steel, and high-stakes warfare. The next Pretender Wars round kicks off in the next couple hours, based on the latest demo update!
New to the game? This event is recommended for players already familiar with the basics — but there’s always at least another, more relaxed game running for newcomers. Whether you want to explore the systems, meet other Houses, or prepare for future battles, it’s a great place to start.
Feeling bold? You’re absolutely welcome to join the Pretender Wars too — if you’re up for the high stakes!
Just look for the game called Pretender Wars to join the fray (remember, you can set an alert for upcoming games on our 💬 discord!).
House Elliott still holds the throne after last round’s contenders let victory slip through their fingers.
Remember the Coat of Arms of the current Pretender. Burn it into memory — so you’ll recognize it the moment it appears on the battlefield. No excuses. No surprises.
Remember, going solo in the Middle Ages was... unwise. Players can form alliances of two or three and win together. Competing parties may cooperate to take down the Pretender or other competing parties — but only one of those alliances can claim victory in the end. Use diplomacy, trade, and military might to rise above the rest!
Don't forget, you can now create outposts using the Pacify Company Stance:
Will this round see new champions rise, or will House Elliott hold on to its claim?
A heraldry package 🛡️ and the "Pretender House" achievement, that will appear on your player profile. The active pretender(s) also receive a special, highlighted 🜲 Pretender role on our discord server.
You can still find a few starting tips for the ranked games in a bite-size guide here on Steam:
