3)battle mode

The battle mode will be in reel time , and not turn base,
The battle will be won only with some strategy.
The enemies don't attack the characters who don't have the level to probably won the battle.
The is some areas in the world of the game where this rules aren't respected.
Before player goes in these areas , the character will be averted of the danger.
If the character died , the player will resume is the game at the last check point or the last city visited.
All that will be done after the last last check point will be void.

The ground who will be builds the fortress will have to be conquered, with this intention this is necessary to kill all the monsters of the area in a limited time , once the area is conquered it will have to be protected from the attacks outside, and the legion will have the right to make pay a right-of-way to any player who ventures in it.

6)civilization

To form a civilization it is necessary to be at least 200, this civilization can build a city or fortress, to be done it will be necessary to conquer a territory.

This civilization will be able to rear animals such as horses and allow knights to become riders and to be definitely more powerful.
The chief of civilization will be elected for a certain a time.
it will be responsible for the stock management, of the prosperity of civilization, the relationships to other civilization.

7)resources

Dismaying the resources such as water, wood, iron, gold, they will be to dissimulate everywhere in the world.
The one who find a resource , he have to defend it if he want to be the unique recipient.
certain resources are not inexhaustible.
