The World

- Locations

There are plenty of locations that you can visit in Aloriah and common to all is that you have to perform the Search Location command in able to actually visit it on the map. Every time you have visited a location you will receive a notification.

Controllable locations


Some locations are controllable and marked with a colored flag following the color scheme used for describing relations in the game.

Uncontrolled locations are marked with a white flag and you can always see to whom a location belongs to by clicking on it.

Examples on controllable locations are: villages, resource nodes, lookout towers and Dragon obelisks (scenario specific).


Visiting locations


Some locations will hold adventures or give you advantages periodically while others can only be visited once. You will know if a location is unvisited by the little white orb, see picture.

If you are still not convinced you can always click on a location and if it is visited you will see a text in the panel.

Resource nodes


Aloriah is very rich on resources and the mines and quarries scattered around the world have always been of great interest to every civilization living here.

The effort for drifting these resource nodes and keeping them safe and fully operational was hard enough for every civilization. Each village is limited in the amount of mines that they can control.

Recourse nodes may vary depending on zone. They could be of a higher rank or of a more valuable kind.
