|title=Dwilight News
 
|article=The [[Dwilight Realm Banner Contest]] is a good indication that the new island will be opening up soon. Players have been waiting for the 8th continent for quite a while now.

|title=New Scout Report Format
 
|article=A new scout report format is being tested on testing islands. When you scout a region, you will be provided the normal scout report, but at the top is a link to view the report in the new style. The new style provides a bit more information, and all the information is tabularized to split it into different categories. However, be aware that accessing the new format of scout reports will charge you an extra hour, and use up one more of your available scouts.

|title=Feature Migration
 
|article=After a long time of heavy development work, the stable branch has recently been updated with all the code changes from testing, which means that among many other updates and bugfixes, the new oath and tax system is now available game-wide. Quote from the newsticker:
 
 
 
''<u>Stable Updated</u>''
 
 
 
''We have updated the stable branch with the latest code version. During the day, allegiances will be updated to the new oaths system. That means everyone on stable will lose their liege and region lords need to offer oaths. Also, bankers take care to update the tax settings. Region lords, make sure you update your local regional taxes.''

|title=New Attributes
 
|article=The short-lived [[Repute]] system is being replaced on testing islands with a new system, referred to so far as [[New Attributes]]. The four new attributes are [[New_Attributes#Achievements|Achievements]], [[New_Attributes#Repute|Repute]], [[New_Attributes#Chivalry|Chivalry]], and [[New_Attributes#Notoriety|Notoriety]]. These attributes should provide an interesting new way to evaluate the past actions and behaviours of characters.

|title=Clean Up the Troubles
 
|article=Several longstanding issues that were created by earlier versions of the new [[allegiance]] system codes have finally been addressed on testing islands today, including ''imperial regions not tagged as such'', ''duchies experiencing realm mergers not recognized as part of the realm'', ''adventurers having oaths and estates'', ''paused knights still retaining their oaths and eating up shares'', and ''some knights having multiple oaths''.

|title=Preparing an Ambush
 
|article=People have begun to notice a new feature on testing islands in the Orders section: ''"Ambush enemies... - prepare a trap and get them from behind."'' Exact details are unknown, but it appears that defending units will now be able to set ambushes for attackers. ''"An ambush lets you show up as normal in all scout reports and other information displays, but in combat your men will attempt to surprise the enemy and attack them from the flanks or back."''. Will the ambushing units line up behind the attackers in formation and charge into the attackers rear ranks from behind? If anyone uses this feature, it would be great to get a report of how it works.

|article=Questions regarding this feature have recently arisen inside [http://bugs.battlemaster.org/view.php?id=3320 Bug #3320]. To clarify, the duel challenges the ruler is unable to refuse are automatically generated, which the questioned noble can access directly through a link inside the stripping title message. If the questioned noble attempts to issue extra duels to the ruler, it will cause the unrefusable duels to defunct, which is now waiting to be fixed.

And yes, for religions alone. The option, however, is open for pagan characters only, and the presence of "renowned" priests is required.
