Greetings Sire! It is good to see you have made it through the trials of the Fourth Age and ready to face the challenges that the Fifth Age brings! Hopefully you have brought many loyal friends and staunch allies along with you in to this new era as well, for you will need them if you are to succeed!

Core to the Fifth Age is the new rule set, which is now in effect.

1. Military Schools can be upgraded to level 5.
2. Treasure Castles are twice as likely to appear.
3. All factions and houses have been disbanded.
4. All capital forums and walls have been cleared.
5. Only members of a House can be candidates for County election.
6. To be eligible for the office of sheriff, a candidate must belong to a House which controls at least 30% of the parishes in the county.
7. Glory gained overall is increased by one-third.
8. Large Houses gain Glory more slowly than small Houses. A House with 60 members will gain one-third the amount of Glory that would be normally gained.

As you can see Sire, you will need to maneuver skillfully in this new political arena and spread your villages and influence all over the realm in order to assure victory for you and your chosen comrades in arms.

Good Luck!

I've seen several sheriffs that were not in a house. Is this an error or was the rule changed?

[Wizard]

it is a rule for AGE 5 not earlier ages

[YouGotStabbed]

I am aware of that. I have been playing on World 4 and there have been several county seats held by unhoused players.

[Lord Darko900]

was it before 5th age ? or after 5th age started ?

[YouGotStabbed]

After 5th age started. The seats are now held by players in houses, but for a day or so they were in the possession of unhoused neutral players.

[Fatal]

World 4 is still dominated by 1 house despite you're changes given in Age 5

[Wizard]

Of course it is. I already told them exactly how I would do it (firefly admin) if I was playing w4. I was sure it would be quick to happen. Now remains to see how long they can keep it up (probably the whole age) and how fast they can end the age.

Let me know once the first round is already over.

[Lord Darko900]

well i don't blame those guys who are taking over everything !! because they are the only active players there and the others are inactive or too scared

1. Military Schools can be upgraded to level 5.
