This game mode requires registering an account. You can play for free for the current month by invitation, obtaining up to 7 locations from different realms (so you can build from all 7 sins and have 7 different lords). //battleships type of castle siege, as player attacking needs to know your realm and structure location (kinda like a puzzle map, as they won't be able to see your structures without spying or attacking) or you can become lord by subscription (5$/month), gaining 7 locations of different realms, which you can offer to other players (while unused), getting credited, maintaining vision of it and allowing you to obtain info //maybe have a shared option, allowing you to do anything you want? or be able to recruit units for yourself as a tax or be able to receive gifts from the tenant ( ~_~ brainstormish) //you can only attack players within a score margin of you (near you in the ladder) If you would accept invitation from another lord to a realm you already gave away, then you would basically transfer your tenant to him, gaining back the same type of realm location. //lords will be credited in hall of fame near the tenants, encouraging players to pay and even give away locations instead of keeping them unused - has limited duration (1 month), meanwhile you build castle, gain score by fighting, climb the ladder in order to hopefully enter the hall of fame and earn prizes
* TODO: clean-upThis mode has persistent sessions lasting one month each, having a limited time at the start of the month when players can sign up for it. There are a limited number of free slots and if those are all taken, then a paid subscription is required for that specific month. This is one of the methods that allows fans to support the game's mentenance and development, because we all want things to run smooth and look good, don't we? The plasma pool won't be replenished between battles, the same goes for units, which die for good. Players will need to gather the necessary resources in order to build their city, having structures that will generate new units and replenish the plasma pool in order to be able to defend themselves or take offensive actions against enemy players. If your Dark Priest gets killed during battle, you won't be able to play another match in this mode until he revives, but you can spend plasma points to instantly revive him. When entering a match, you'll be required to have a minimum number of non-duplicated units and at least a certain number of plasma points. The score of each match will be constantly accumulted in order to reflect your position in the expansion's ladder. The players with the highest score each month will be immortalized in the hall of fame and also receive awesome prizes. You can play this mode only online, optionally by teaming up with another buddy, who also requires an account or subscription. Your buddy can even play from the same device as you provided authorization is granted or he uses a mobile device as a controller.

This has huge hitpoints, up to 7 levels, increasing resource generation, unlocking structures and providing some abilities, one each level, either defensive or offensive (iron curtain, shroud, plasma shield, lightning strike/storm, meteor shower, blizzard storm, comet, fog, satellite scan, mirrage, drone strike, super repair, disintegration, change position, sell structure, sabbotage/disable structure, earthquake, nuke strike, catapult siege, swap location, infiltrate)
1-7 dwellings
special structures, could be gold mine (or some realm specific resource) and plasma generator
city layout: 3x3 grid; square (homm3) or diamond (isometric, homm4) to be decided; battleships style, coordinate system 1-7 (realm), 1-3 (x), 1-3 (y), meaning 63 combinations
//sloth special structure (reshaper/reconfigurator): split higher level unit into 2 smaller ones or the other way
Avarice
Them pigs really learned their lesson, no longer giving in to the big bad wolf. Their houses are now made out of state of the art adamantium safes, with roofs on top!
Pricy Tavern - Bounty HunterNobody sane dares to hang around in this place for the "friendly" people and drinks, some only dare to adventure here in acts of desperation as a last resort solution when in need of a hitman.
Black Market - Cyber HoundHere's the place to find all sorts of gadgets, mass destruction weapons and even dangerous prosthetics if you lose a limb if your negotation skills were poor.
Cash Casino - Greedy KnightEnter this place in hopes to win something and you'll be likely leaving empty handed or worse, in small pieces, no matter what. The house always wins!
Coin Tower - Gilded MaidenVery tall lavish construction made out of huge golden dimes stacked together. Feel free to stare at it if you don't go blind but make sure you don't touch!
Automated Factory - Living ArmorDrones constantly dump raw materials into this industrial structure and every once in a while, confused massive golem like creatures start to wonder out of it.
Tribute Altar - Golden WyrmRumor has it that each time someone passes by this place, he must throw a coin at it, otherwise a great force will weild the huge axe and cut him in half in a flash.
Envy
Chickin Farm - Cycloper
This could be a laboratory, having a femur bone fence surrounding it.
Mystic Tent - Mr. StitchesA very ragged tent made out of various mismatching textiles that were sawn together. Many enter not to be seen ever again.
Floating Windmill - VertigoThis structure was probably designed to lure ships into rocks and bait lost creatures into approaching, seeking shelter during those nasty flesh ripping sand storms.
Desert Oasis - ScorpiusWhile everything is all sun and sand around, the oasis is sure to attract desperate creatures with it's small pond to fill their thirst, tasty looking vegetation to fill their hunger and palm tree making shadow to cool off even more after eating and drinking. Yet they might be not weary that it's all too good to be true.
Sliced Canyon - Spikes
Gluttony
Fungal Throne - Toxic Shroom
This funny chair might seem like a cool place to sit and relax, but when you'll get up, you won't get very far. Ingenious a trap designed by the shrooms, which will consume your corpse.
Lily Swamp - SwamplerFerocious creatures leap back and forth all around from the top of this tall pyramid like structure, whenever prey makes the fatal mistake to comes within its area.
Blood Stump - Miss CreeperA jacuzzi within a dead tree filled with the vital fluids of creatures wanting to settle their thirst, it's a never ending cycle apparently, so keep away!
Monkey Cup - Papa Eggplantnepenthes carnivore flower
Corrosive Pond - MarauderA forest having a small glade, with a dead tree in the middle, having butterflies in it. The forest is so tick that the trees are forming a wall, the only visible entrance appears to be a wolf shaped den.
Pride
Candy Booth - Gumble
One or more snow caves that cave the entrances blocked by huge snow boulders.
Flying Ship - ScavengerA very strange place that's filled with all sorts of things that you can't even imagine. Mysterious silhouettes are flying in and out relentlessly.
Braille Library - BookwormA rectangular structure made all out of huge books, entrance being done in the middle of the lenght, after you climb some stairs. The roof is made out of 3 huge opened books facing upside-down. This structure contains some strange books, probably written in binary code, that only the troglodytes can read by swipping their tongues over the pages.
Massive Cannon - AegisA strange garden featuring a variety of roughly sculpted animal shapes scattered all around, though this place always gives you the impression something is moving in the corner of your eyes.
Forsaken Portal - AbolishedStarway that lead into a rather unsetling
Sloth
Carrot Cottage - Snow Bunny
A rectangular glass tank, having the whole bottom covered with sand, some castle ruins on top of that, along with a few plants and such, but lacking any water in it.
Wishing Well - Deep BeautyAn old fountain where desperate people would come to try to make their deepest desires come true, at a cost.
Chess Lake - NightmareA frozen lake which has a chess board carved into it, having the black sqares as holes into the ice. Some ice made chess pieces are on the white tiles, like rooks and pawns etc., maybe not horses as they might make the impression that Impalers can be recruited from this dwelling.
Ivy Maze - ImpalerA maze kinda like in "The Shinning" movie, having the bushes almost white as they're covered with snow. This makes the link regarding Impaler's ivy like toungue and poisonous vine skill along with the natural vegetation, the bushes that forming the maze itself. Around corners there are pits of ice spikes, so make sure that you don't move too fast and get tricked right in by the slippery floor.
Water Park - AdaptationHere's where all the fun is at! A blue colored spiral water slide, leading right into a pool of water that has a lot of deadly jellyfish in it. What more can you want during your vacation?
Arctic Palace - Ice DemonA cool palace having a lot of ice spikes around and the main entrance being through the mouth of a demonic figure. This sure doesn't look like a very friendly place to visit.
Wrath
Ink Pot - Mangler
