Main Page

This is the BattleMaster Community, made not only for, but also largely by players. It is a WikiWiki system, using MediaWiki, the same software that powers Wikipedia.

Official Manual

All pages in this section have been written by contributors and are occasionally reviewed for accuracy. The manual is intentionally incomplete in some details and does not reveal everything, simply because it makes for a more interesting game to discover some stuff on your own.

BattleMaster Basics  For the impatient, what you really should know to play the game. Manual  The full manual, with all the details we are willing to share. FAQ  The Frequently Asked Questions (and their answers). OOC Instructions  A list of instructions to do various OOC things such as subscribe to news list, access IRC, or use bugtracker.

Introduction  An in-character introduction to BattleMaster. Rules and Policies  Rules and policies across BattleMaster. The Titans  Social Contract enforcers. Roleplaying  Guidelines and other information about the roleplaying aspect of BattleMaster.

Community Portal

The purpose of the Community Portal is to allow convenient access to the various sections of the BattleMaster wiki to assist users in creating new pages, editing older pages, and finding the desired information. On this page, you will find summarized links to the other various aspects of the community (FAQs, community resources, feature requests, who the community manager is etc.).

Approved

Feature Requests Tom has approved, but which have not yet been added to the game.

• Leaving Religion With Debt
• Newbie Retention
• Marshal and Sponsor Prestige Bonuses and Penalties for Battles
• Facebook Wall Posts

Implemented

Feature requests that have already been added to the game. After a decent amount of time, the old ones will be deleted from the list. You should be able to find an archive of everything at The TattleMaster. These might be be in testing or the code not updated to the game yet, but once here it should be in the code.

• Add Army and Sponsor Names to Battle Reports - Tom emphasizes need for readability in report
• Religion Treasury Report
• Shade Nobles in Realm Hierarchy
• Expanded Militia Placement
• No New Realm Restrictions for Secessions - Technically more a bug than a feature request
• Unit Line Settings and Unit Status
• Day and Night BM Image

Development and Contests

We are currently refactoring the code to update and massively improve BattleMaster. Early details and an overview can be found on the War 2.0 page.

Part of our continued effort is that we run occasional Contests and Community Efforts where you can contribute to BattleMaster and have your work be used daily by over a thousand players.
