Battle Dawn is a strategy browser-based MMO. Gameplay takes place in "ticks", of which one passes each hour (or half-hour, on double speed servers.)

Because of this slow gameplay, it is possible to excel at the game even if you log in for only a few minutes each day.

There are three themes, Fantasy, Earth, and Mars. Games last 4000 ticks, or until one alliance collects all 10 relics on the map. If you want to try it out, one of the fantasy servers is restarting soon! I'll be "quinnr" in game, and I shall create a bay12 guild if people are interested. Just post here if you'll be playing, so I know if we have enough players for an alliance.

There is a wiki here:

...Until you go to bed for the night, waking up the next morning to find your empire is nothing more than a pile of smoking ashes . Trust me, I have experience in that.

4000 ticks = 4000 hours = 166+2/3 days, half that on a speed server.

Yes.
Unless someone wins completely first, which is rare.

And sleeping...you can partly stop that by using a shield generator, and having a good defence.
And a good clan to back you up/send defence.

I remember playing this game a couple years ago.


I think I left because paying gave too much of an advantage, its an RTS for petes sake, giving advantages kind of "ruins" the strategy part, to an extent.


On the other hand, im willing to start playing again, if we make some kind of Bay12 clan.

[quinnr]

They didn't even have advantages till recently, and they aren't that overpowered...

Oh, really? Well, im just basing on three year old memories. =/

[quinnr]

Hmm..
Oh, I think you could buy Metal + Oil back then, right?

Sounds about right. Higher tier buildings were locked, too, me thinks.


Also, since I just had a horrible moment on Cowed, and plan not to play it for a while, I guess I will move onto this. What server are ya in?

[quinnr]

Fantasy 3.
It resets in negative 114 ticks.

Once it resets I'll be in, I'll make us an alliance too.
Any other bay12ers?

Negative ticks? You mean in t-minus or something? 

Also, the server is down, so I cant get myself reaquated again. Btw, I cant seem to make an account(old one must have been deleted), so I assume new players have to make an account ingame(which I rather dislike).

[quinnr]

They merged all of the servers to have one account, which is much better than it was before.

And by negative, I mean it should've been reset. I even got a message that said that

This is fun, can you only run one at once, I'm setting up the Psyberian Empire on mars

You can run one empire on each server, last time I checked.

Also, Negetive 114 ticks is atleast a day.....they should get it back up faster. 

[quinnr]

They have a thing at the end of rounds, still going on I'd bet.

Oh yah, you get like 1000x resources or something.


When it happened to me, I just spent it on a huge army and obliberated the next guy. Then my army died due to supply lost or something, and I got bored. Or maybe I made another huge army and obliberated another guy....hmm.
