BattleMaster

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!



Looking to flex your coding skills? BattleMaster is under active development by a focused team of volunteers. We invite you to join us and take an even deeper part in this ever growing universe! New features are regularly added, gameplay is balanced and tweaked, and more is done to continuously improve the game. You can talk directly to the developers at the forum, or on the discord

Wiki Off Again - posted on Mon May 19 at 12:13:35 by Timothy Collett

Unfortunately, I have once again had to disable the Wiki due to the unending flood of bots scraping absolutely everything under the sun for LLM training data.

I am now working on a plan to enable single-sign-on between the Wiki and the game, so that everyone will automatically have a Wiki account—and then putting most of the Wiki behind a login requirement. I would really rather not do this, but I don't see another way to reliably prevent the bots from wrecking the game.

I hope to be able to get this in place within the next few days. Please stand by and I will do my best to get the Wiki back online safely.

Happy April Fools! - posted on Tue Apr 1 at 22:46:41 by Timothy Collett

As you have no doubt all surmised, the fishing "minigame" is this year's April Fools joke. 

I will leave it up over the course of the next week, during which time I will seek feedback on whether it's something that should stick around, or its novelty value wears off quickly enough that it would be better to take it out again.

In the meantime, feel free to continue to enjoy relaxing with a rod and line.

Kick Back and Relax - posted on Mon Mar 31 at 18:44:08 by Timothy Collett

With everything in the world being so stressful, wouldn't it be nice to just spend some time, sitting by the water, listening to the soothing sounds of nature? Now you can! Or at least, your nobles can. Please enjoy the new ability to go fishing! You can access it under "Actions".

Unit Morale Reset - posted on Wed Feb 12 at 14:32:39 by Timothy Collett

Unfortunately, a recent update had a typo in it (now fixed, should be fine for future turns) that led to many units losing massive amounts of morale. While I cannot easily restore any troops that may have deserted, I have reset all units' morale to 100% for now

Wiki Offline: DDoS from LLM Scraping Bots - posted on Fri Jan 17 at 11:47:24 by Timothy Collett

Update: The wiki is back online with some improvements to the anti-bot protections thanks to Andrew.

I apologize for the current slow and unstable performance of the BattleMaster server. We are experiencing another wave of bots scraping data from the Wiki to feed to LLMs for training, and they are effectively conducting a Distributed Denial of Service attack on the server.

In order to protect the game, I have temporarily disabled the Wiki, and will be consulting with Andrew on how best to keep this from happening in the future.
