Wanting to follow in the footsteps of the good 'ol Fire Lords of old and want to take over the world? Maybe you're just an Equalist who wants to wipe out those nasty benders, one nation at a time. Or, it's possible you're a Spirit who just wants to blow things up to make those nasty humans suffer for their crimes.
Whatever the reasons behind it, we're offering the takeover and ownership of nations/areas within the Avatar Universe for players to participate in. We call these "Conquest Threads".
Q: So what is a Conquest, exactly?
A: If a certain group of people, like the Equalists, the Triple Threats, the Dark Spirits, etc. want to take over an area...like...Republic City, a Conquest Thread is exactly how they'd do it. It's two sides of warriors fighting in order to take control of that particular place.
Q: How would I initiate an attack then?
A: That's easy. Just follow the template below:
ATTACKER's TEMPLATE
Put this code into the "Raids, Events, and Conquests" section of the forum!
Q: Okay, I initiated an attack....now what happens?
A: Well, now you have to wait for the Staff to open up a Conquest Thread in the region you chose. If you look on the left hand side over there, you'll see an area where current Conquest Threads are posted. A link will show up right there.
There are two sides to a Conquest Thread: The Attackers, and the Defenders. Both teams must work together in order to damage one another and overpower the opposite side. The Defenders will also have to create a team using the following template:
DEFENDER's TEMPLATE:
Once the Team Leaders from each Team have posted, the Staff member in charge of the thread will give both sides a posting order: Attackers, Defenders, Attackers, and so on.

RULES AND REGULATIONS:
1: If your Team Leader leaves the thread (unless it's for vacation reasons, to in which case, you may transfer Team Leader to another member of the team, and gain a member to replace whoever is leaving,) you will receive a penalty. This usually means your team getting some sort of handicap, or the other team getting a benefit.
2: Your character CAN switch sides in a Conquest. HOWEVER--this cannot be past the halfway (1/2) point of the Thread! (Meaning, if one month passes since the Thread was started, you CAN'T CHANGE YOUR SIDE.) If you change sides, you will still receive a reward for victory (or defeat) but it will be 75% of what you would normally have earned.
3: If a person does not post within a week of it being their turn to post, they will be automatically kicked by our Conquest NPC--The Spirit of War.
4: You may replace someone who has been removed from your team with another member. However on their first post in the thread, they MUST HAVE A VALID REASON AND EXPLANATION FOR WHY THEY ARE THERE. NO acceptations!
5: If you leave a Conquest thread, you will NOT gain any experience or rewards for participation!
6: YOU MAY NOT ENTER A RAID THREAD ONCE IT HAS STARTED UNLESS YOU ARE REPLACING A LEAVING MEMBER OF THE TEAM.
7: You CANNOT PARTICIPATE IN MORE THAN ONE (1) CONQUEST THREAD AT A TIME.
8: You may NOT have more than ONE (1) character in a Conquest Thread at one time.
Happy Conquering!

A CONQUEST THREAD LASTS FOR TWO (2) MONTHS AFTER ITS INITIATION.
Once that two month period has ended, members of the staff will judge each team based on their performances. This is based off of the following:This gives both sides plenty of time to combat one another and give a lengthy thread.
- Damage Taken (dodging everything thrown at you is going to make your score go down, and definitely won't help your team.)
- Realism (this can be anything from attacks, to characters)
- Teamwork (I hope you played nice with your team!)
- Creativity (how did your team handle your opponents? As King Bumi once said, "I hope you think like a Mad Genius."
