Territory & Claims
The continent is carved into territories, each held by a faction. Claiming your own slice of it means out-powering whoever already holds the ground.
Reading the map
You always know where you stand. The HUD names the territory beneath your feet, and the world map opens a stylized atlas of the whole continent — hover a region to see whose banner flies there, and open its faction at a click.
Planting a cornerstone
You claim land by placing a Cornerstone. It isn't a free grab — it's a contest of strength. A faction's power comes from its people and the wealth it has stored, and your claim is weighed against everyone whose territory it would cut into.
- Out-power them, and the claim takes hold — the stronger you are, the wider the ground you carve out.
- Fall short, and you're turned away: they overpower you.
A claim you win is drawn on both the world map and the in-world HUD for all to see.
Only members of the owning faction can break a placed cornerstone or a Faction Chest. Everyone else is locked out.
Your borders are real boundaries. Worker NPCs only labor on land your faction holds — they'll never wander off to dig in a rival's territory.
