Am still playing 6 years on ! - hi lvl 800 on new yrs eve (2017/18) !
Leading the Targaryens - PS interested in joining - PM any officer in Game :-)
PS in top200 on uk 1 never botted or used a VPN - that's why it took 5 yrs to get to leg 800
There's a lot that is still not clear - as you might expect - but I suppose things will fall into place once the event begins, whenever that is.
Is this going to run concurrently with existing events? How long will it last? What are the rewards/benefits? Not more horseshoes I hope!
You need or want help to become a better player shoot me a message in the forums or here I'll gladly help you out for free
Teaser videos in last few days and now a thread only just started in forum and basic questions already needing an answer ?
Maybe suggest Our Great King Eric gets the court jester scribes to return from the tavern and get to work
Not holding my breath but will my nose as I fear more Balderdash B--- Sh-- coming our way

You spawn in the event with your alliance members. Capture those cities to gain influence. If you manage to hold the city for long enough you'll win that influence, you'll have to protect this influence until the end of the day where it is transferred to your alliance capital. Then you'll just have to continue accumulating more and more influence for your alliance, filling up the capital. Then at the end of the event, the alliance will win rewards based on how much influence it managed to accumulate and successfully protect during the whole event, yes? or did i miss something?
Honestly, i am already very concerned just from reading about the event despite the fact that this event alone is probably the most creative thing we've seen come out of GGS in a long time.
How will the game balance ruby vs non-ruby players? If this event will become just like outer realms, then ruby players will be able to wreak havoc on this map causing a headache for everyone else. Sure, you are now not alone in this event, you have your alliance members, but not all players are willing to invest large amounts of money into events like this.
Meaning that this event will become a feast for players who have the motivation and funds to make investments here, meaning that there will be a small number of players who will hold some massive power and influence to change the map and the outcome of the event to their own liking. Not that this doesn't already exist in the game with it's currently already running events, but i'd like to see some restrictions here for what ruby purchases will be able to grant you for advantages. Otherwise this event will just become an another ruby spending war, discouraging everyone else from participating.
How will the game motivate event players and alliances to participate? Beyond the Horizon is basically a full fledged pvp event. With pvp becoming increasingly unpopular and frown upon in GGE you can expect that there will be a very large percentage of players and alliances refusing to participate just due to the fact that the event is about pvp. What will GGS do to change this and motivate players into stepping outside of their comfort zone? Yes, this event is optional, if you don't like pvp then you can simply opt out of the event. But i still think that it's very unfortunate to leave these players out, it's not a small number after all that we're speaking of here, it's easily more than half the playerbase.
How will the game educate players regarding how the event works and how to play it? There seems to be a trend where GGS introduces new events and features that people have a hard time understanding despite the explainations and facts that are available to be found. I would like that there was some sort of tutorial that you'd have to go through at the beginning of the event when joining it, explaining for first time players what everything is and how everything works.
Throwing players directly into the battlefield providing little to no explainations, like how they did with outer realms is not the way to go in terms of giving players a good start.
No, i don't play on GB1.
Didn't see anywhere the connection being made, other than the Man with the Monkey...……….
Sleep well.
I'll most likely kill you in the morning.
Do we have an a starting castle?
Do we have to move troops over?
Do we use our own def tools or is there a standard amount of troops in thr castle and the ally city?
What are the rewards?
Will hitting the npc castles there give any advantage for the ranking or unlock extra rewards?
Will it start at 10 am or 12 am? Or will it be late as usuall again
Now for some questions:
1)Is this like the OR where everyone starts at the same level with the same two castles(free/premium) or do our main accounts get copied in some form?
2)What if your alliance has less than 20 members? Can you partner with another alliance to fill one event alliance?
3)Can you switch alliances once there?
4)Are you going to have the same BS point collection/banking time that doesn't change but highly advantages people who play on CET time because the collection/banking time is at the end of the prime playing time there?
My prediction: Low participation due to lousy teasers, lack of information and poor GGE track record.
Will this be a cross-server event like outer realms?
GGS should monitor the power balance on every server in order to maximize its revenue.
If a competent person would do that the result could be a win-win situation.
