The system I developed in Season 2 has proven highly effective.  You are welcome to copy and implement this hierarchy in your own Fellowship’s Discord server. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please don't hesitate to reach out— In any Fellowship, members often log in at different times. Assigning ranks helps create a structured environment that promotes individual responsibility and establishes a clear chain of command. This system enhances communication, streamlines organization, and clarifies ongoing tasks. To begin, select two or more roles that you think suit you best from the options below and post them. However, if you’re interested in...

Becoming a Diplomatic Master in Middle-earth By Empress Jhazala | May 27, 2023 | 7:00 AM Diplomacy, a noble craft forged in the crucible of international relations, has found its place in the hearts of Rise to War players.  Just like neighboring realms on the brink of conflict, players must handle delicate situations with finesse and expertise. In the world of diplomacy, emissaries rise to the occasion, using their eloquence to defuse tensions, promote patience, and prevent the calamity of war. While we often associate "diplomacy" with formal diplomatic affairs and high-level politics, its importance extends beyond that, influencing our daily interactions at work and even our relationships with loved ones. Diplomacy is the art of advancing ideas and causes without causing unnecessary strife or triggering catastrophic events. It requires a deep understanding of human nature's intricacies, which can undermine agreements and fuel conflicts. A skilled diplomat possesses the f...

A Strategy Guide: Mithril Madness By Empress Jhazala | May 26, 2023 | 5:00 PM Mithril is a valuable resource in the game that is essential for unlocking and leveling up the unique weapons of Commanders. However, it is worth noting that Mithril can be quite expensive, which has led to some players perceiving it as unfair to free-to-play users. In this comprehensive guide, we will explore various aspects of Mithril, including its types, costs, strategies on how to obtain it, and tips for optimizing its usage. Types and Costs of Mithril: There are three types of Mithril available in the game: Raw Mithril, Impure Mithril, and Pure Mithril. Each type corresponds to different tiers of Commanders and has its own cost: 1. Raw Mithril (Blue): This type of Mithril is required for Tier 1 Commanders. It can be obtained at a cost of 250 gems. 2. Impure Mithril (Purple): Tier 2 Commanders require Impure Mithril. It is slightly more valuable and can be acquired for 500 gems. 3. Pure Mithril (Gold): T...

The Mastermind “Funneler” By Empress Jhazala | May 22, 2023 | 4:00 PM Funneling is a strategic approach that is highly recommended no matter the amount you spend on the game, but is 100% mandatory for Free-to-Play (F2P) players. It involves carefully selecting a few Commanders & optimizing Equipment Pieces and channeling all your resources into them. Instead of having a myriad of Commanders with low Respect levels and mediocre 1-star gear, it's far more effective to focus on 2 strong Commanders and acquiring their unique weapons. By focusing your efforts on a select group of formidable Commanders, you can unleash their full potential and attain superior results. I understand that decision can be challenging, especially for newcomers to the game. Trust me when I say that I’ve spent hours upon hours upon hours on this one topic/decision. However, it's crucial to keep in mind that each Commander possesses their own set of unique strengths and I firmly believe that every Comman...
