Servers and seasons

Guide · Account and seasons

Each Judgment of Shadows server is a world of its own: map, ranking, guilds and economy kept apart from the others. What you build on one server stays there.

The server list

The portal's Servers page shows each world with:

  • Speed — the multiplier for construction and training. This server runs at 3x. Marching doesn't speed up; the details are in Server pace.
  • Region — the server's region, such as BR.
  • Age — how long ago the world opened. Freshly opened worlds carry the New badge: the best moment to start on equal footing.
  • Population — how many lords are on the server.
  • Status — online, under maintenance, coming soon or closed.

When a new world or a new season is announced, it joins the list as Coming soon, with its opening date.

One lord per server

Each account has a single lord per server. While signed in on the portal, the Servers page shows your lord on each world, and your Account lists its status (active, deactivated or blocked). Want another race or another pace? Create a lord on another server — your race can't change after sign-up (see Choosing your race).

Seasons

The world lives in seasons. Opening day is day 0, and part of the content unlocks gradually, so nobody races ahead right at the start:

  • new hero titles at the Hall of Heroes;
  • more villages allowed per realm;
  • guild oases.

The timeline is in the game, under Calendar → Events, in the Season unlocks section, with the day of each unlock. The same tab shows upcoming events such as the Guild War and the Colossus.

When the season ends

  • Notice: near the end, an in-game banner shows how much time is left and when the next season starts.
  • Restart: at the end of the season the world starts over from scratch. Villages, troops, heroes, items, coins, cash and guilds don't carry over to the next season — everyone goes back to the same starting point.
  • New sign-up: to play the next one, you create your lord again, and you may pick another race. Use the same verified e-mail or the same Google account: when something does cross seasons — such as your Omens card collection, if the server offers that legacy — that's how it finds you.
  • Pre-registration: while the next season hasn't opened, the entry screen may offer a field to leave your e-mail and get notified when it opens.

What changes from one season to the next is published in the portal's News.
