BattleMaster is a game played from your
browser where grand stories unfold created by the interactions and imaginations of players. It focuses on battle, teamwork,
and roleplay where the power is in your hands to create your own destiny and alter the course of history, forever. It takes
place in a medieval setting where you create a character and join other players in a realm of your choosing. Your character
will be of noble blood, start off as a Knight, and as your ambition demands, perhaps one day reach the ranks of Duke, General, Ruler, or more.
Your character will fight alongside their realm's fellow nobles against nobles from enemy realms in order to win wars.
Cities will be conquered, regions will be defended, and blood will be spilled in the name of honor, glory, culture, and power.
Take part in forging alliances, destroying empires, fighting holy wars, and more in an ever changing landscape created by players, for players,
where the victors are envied and enter the pages of history.
Battlemaster is a lightweight slow paced game designed to be played alongside your other activities with turns every 12 hours at 6AM and 6PM UTC . Depending on your desires and your characters' tasks, you can spend as little as 10 minutes per day on your characters, or over an hour based on what you want to do, roleplay, and achieve each day. A typical response time to letters and messages is measured in hours, not minutes, and many play Battlemaster from their smartphone while on the go.
Casually fight wars by wielding sword or bow, devise military strategy and lead fellow nobles by commanding the armies of your realm, vie for power among ambitious nobles and realms by engaging in political intrigue, spread your religion's faith and embark on a crusade for purposes only known to you: these are some of the many choices you will make. In Battlemaster, you create your own destiny, and all that stand in your path make victory that much sweeter when you overcome all that oppose you. Join Battlemaster now, every day is another chance for you to attain fame and honor!

Happy 2026! - posted on Wed Dec 31 at 08:28:45 by Timothy Collett
In 3 days, I will be getting on a plane and leaving the US for Ireland, more or less for good. This should, I hope, be a great move for me in the long run—but in the immediate, it's going to mean I'm extremely busy and distracted for a while. (As, in fact, I have been for a while, with all the preparations for moving.)
I do still have a number of things in the pipeline that I'm excited to get finished up and pushed out to you, but they, along with any changes or fixes that require any real investment of time and effort on my part, will have to wait until I've finished settling in, which could be as much as a few months.
Please just be patient, and if any problems crop up, report them through the normal channels (bugs to the Bugtracker, misconduct to the Titans).
Thank you for your patience!

- The code handling paraphernalia production and decay has been adjusted; stock should not decay nearly as fast now under normal conditions.
