A Tripartite Conquest War of the Kingdoms betweenK45 VS K14 VS K236

Dear Lords, welcome back to our report. Did any of you manage to take part in the War of Kingdom event that concluded last weekend? This event represents the highest level of competition between kingdoms, with lords battling for honour and generous rewards. Now, let me, AmaiAmai, bring you the report on this round of war of Kingdom for K236!

This round of KVK features a rather rare ‘Tripartite Conquest’ format, in which the three kingdoms are paired off against one another and engage in tactical struggles. Due to the special 30-minute cooldown mechanism that applies after crossing servers during KVK, players in combat find that even the decision of whether to cross servers and which kingdom to head for carries significant strategic weight.

For K236, this round of KVK is proving particularly challenging, as the final match of the Ultimate Conquest event took place the day before. This means that if powerful allies who were originally in the same kingdom as you joined an alliance for the UC competition, they will not be able to return to their original alliance in time for the Kingdom Battle. And this is precisely what happened to AmaiAmai.

The two strongest players in K236 are JaritSoraB2 and Savages; Jarit is a formidable spearman player with awakened Greyworm and the Night King. Don’t be fooled by the cute cat picture wearing a frog hood on his profile—the claws she wields actually make her a ferocious lioness! Savages, on the other hand, is a powerful infantry player, with a line-up featuring Daeron, Jon Snow and Vorian – essentially a super-upgraded version of AmaiAmai! In fact, I’m not even in the top five players in this realm!

Given that the two most formidable rally leaders from K236 have been locked into RoD and WxD alliances respectively for this KVK, it seems that Jarit, Savages and Amai will all need to prepare for solo combat—and that is by no means a safe prospect. As the drums of war begin to beat, we shall soon discover who our opponents will be in this Kingdom War...

In this round of KVK, we will face K14 and K45, both of which are led by some strong alliances. On K14’s Iron Throne, players from the longstanding powerhouse NW1 surround it, the most prominent among them being Valyria. Just look at the imposing Dany and his crown, paired with that dazzling red armour; we can probably already surmise that he is a mighty cavalry lord. I certainly won’t let myself be caught by her; In K45’s King’s Landing, another UTB alliance with a long history holds sway. True to their name, ‘Untouchable’, xSidjustinx’s striking Faceless Man, Jaqen H’ghar, is a force beyond my reach. Given that he possesses a Faceless Man of Braavos, we can assume he has a full complement of high-ranking commanders such as Vorian! Faced with such formidable opponents, do you think I’m destined for a dull weekend? Not a chance! I might not be able to take them down myself, but I can coordinate with Jarit and Savages to gather vital intelligence, leaving them to breach these high walls!

In the early stages of the event, none were more active than the warriors of UTB, who, under the leadership of xSidjustinx, captured the Iron Throne of K14. It is important to note that there are significant risks involved in capturing the Great City. If you do not station your Lord within the Great City, they will be so vulnerable that they can be crushed in a single blow. Conversely, if you place your Lord on the Iron Throne, the soldiers in your home castle will be exposed to immense danger. The methods to avoid these risks and counter such strategies could even be the subject of a separate, fascinating guide! However, it seems xSidjustinx was unconcerned by this potential loss; he actually left himself completely exposed in front of Kingslanding, whilst his Lord and army on the Iron Throne could not be concealed by anti scouting.. And so, the storm descended...

Savages finally had time to log in. By this point, AmaiAmai had clearly established that xSidjustinx’s main force was stationed on the Iron Throne, which meant that xSidjustinx’s castle was currently defenceless. To avoid falling into any traps UTB might have set, Amai even sent a lord from a alt to check. Brilliant! That alt lord was indeed captured by xSidjustinx. So next up, it’s time for a storming assault!

Given that this round of the Kingdom Siege features the ‘Lord of Light's Revival’effects, which means fallen troops will be resurrected once the event ends. Savages swiftly filled his hospital with T1 units before launching a full-scale assault on xSidjustinx with a complete T5 infantry force. The result was nothing short of spectacular! A nearly tenfold disparity in military strength proved extremely vulnerable in the absence of a well-organised formation. Of course, under normal circumstances, Savages would be highly unlikely to deploy an all-T5 assault, but since their troops were set to be resurrected the very next day, why hesitate?

xSidjustinx, who had been settled inside the great city special area, was instantly knocked back. However, Savages, a highly experienced battlefield veteran, remained completely unfazed; he swiftly located his target and organised a second ㄎand third wave of attacks. This time, it was a remarkable feat that easily crushed over ten million soldiers in a single strike!

After the first two waves of attacks, xSidjustinx had only his last five million infantry units left—his final reserve. That was the only thing keeping him in the fight, but Savages wasn’t about to give him much of a chance to put up a fight. The final blow!

Next up is Jarit’s turn. It seems UTB has decided to keep their remaining forces in Kingslanding firmly rooted in place, allowing them to rack up points quickly, but this also means that every single one of them is exposed to danger. Although the rest of UTB’s lords are at home, as I mentioned earlier, Jarit is no ordinary spearman player! If your army is too heavily specialised in cavalry, or your commanders aren’t strong enough, Jarit will certainly charge straight at you!

As luck would have it, Schnuti had conveniently forgotten to activate his anti scout; as luck would have it, his commander was slightly weaker than Jarit’s; and, as luck would have it, he had nothing but cavalry in his castle...

By heaven's grace, Jarit's Unsullied strike! Clearly, the risks of an overly specialised formation are extremely high; in just two attacks, this force of twelve million was wiped out...

We then turned our attention to Lord Futte. Although he hadn’t forgotten to activate his anti-scouting measures, we managed to use a few little tricks to successfully infiltrate his castle and obtain valuable intelligence. It turned out that he, too, was a formidable infantry player; the elusive Vorian was lying in wait for the enemy to arrive.

Roze has decided to lead the charge; he boasts excellent stats and a mainstream cavalry formation. This formation incorporates the weakness attacks led by Jamie and Enzo, as well as the female synchronised effect created by Leila, Salma, Dany. When he activated Rally and charged, the consequences were disastrous: the 5.7 million-strong cavalry force was ultimately unable to breach the fortress defended by Vorian, and Lord Futte achieved a resounding victory!

At this point, the members of HHH decided to call a truce, as we seemed to sense that the beast within NW1—which had remained dormant until now—was beginning to stir...

Unlike Roze, Valyria’s might is evident from her equipment and her castle appearance. Once the dragon’s flames were unleashed, the UTB members who had been blockade in Kingslanding knew the writing was on the wall.

With no route of retreat and unable to flee to another server, though we cannot see the details of the battle, Valyria not only crushed xSidjustinx, who had been holding Kingslanding; but, in a single rally, also dealt a blow of 500 million power to Lord Futte—who had, in the previous battle, managed to wipe out Roze’s assembled army—and invited his lord back to Valyria as a guest. Clearly, Valyria is the player with the most formidable female cavalry formation in this KVK; all suspense has vanished. and this KVK was won by K14, who came to life in the latter stages, reaping the rich rewards of victory.

I believe KVK events, which do not result in actual losses of military strength, are well worth participating in. Players can safely experience combat scenarios they wouldn’t normally attempt at minimal cost. Although the merits and medals earned are significantly fewer, you can still enjoy a rewarding blue diamonds harvest once the event concludes. Dear Lords, which KVK mode is your favourite?
