Season 1 verschiebt Allianzen an den Kartenrand und führt Territorien in Form von Militärfestungen und Städten ein. Eroberungen erzeugen Einflusspunkte, die beim Verlust des Territoriums wieder wegfallen.
Start of Season 1
At the beginning of Season 1, all alliances are relocated to the map edge as a Hive.
The map is larger and consists of two types of territories:
- Military Fortresses
- Cities
The Capitol remains in the game and is now called City of Apocalypse.
All cities and military fortresses start unowned.
The alliance that last controlled the Capitol retains ownership for 28 days before it can be contested again (including Ministries and Hats, as usual).

Objective of Season 1
The main objective of Season 1 is to accumulate Influence Points compared to other Warzones.
Influence Points are only active while the alliance controls the territory.
Influence Points by Capture Type
- Military Fortresses grant a small amount of Influence Points.
- Cities grant a large amount of Influence Points.
- Cities located in other Warzones grant significantly more Influence Points.
Influence per City Level
| City Level | Alliance Influence |
|---|---|
| 1 | 100,000 |
| 2 | 200,000 |
| 3 | 300,000 |
| 4 | 400,000 |
| 5 | 500,000 |
| 6 | 1,000,000 |
Rules Within Your Own Warzone
Capturing Military Fortresses

a neighboring fortress must already be owned.
Additional Important Rules
- Capturing requires sufficient Virus Resistance.
- The daily capture counter is not shown directly in-game.
Use in-game mails (captures / abandonments) to track progress. - If a city loss causes the ownership limit to be exceeded, nothing happens immediately.
New fortresses can only be captured again once limits align. - Military Fortresses can be abandoned (duration: 1 hour).
- After capture, a 36-hour protection period applies (including other Warzones).
- Once the daily limit of 2 fortress captures is reached, other fortresses cannot even be attacked for support or defense.
