Territory Capture
Allows you to take control of locations and challenge other players for territory.
At Evolution stage 6, the Territory Capture skill becomes available.
You can capture any unclaimed territory without a fight or initiate a battle for an occupied location, as long as no battle is already scheduled for it.
Battle Scheduling
Battles do not start immediately after using the skill.
A battle begins 24 hours after using the Capture skill on an enemy location.
The fight continues until one side wins.
Victory Conditions
Victory depends on presence inside the location.
▪ defenders must keep at least one organism in the location for the entire duration of the battle
▪ attackers must ensure that no defenders are present in the location for at least 5 consecutive seconds
▪ if neither side shows up, the location is claimed by the first organism that arrives after the timer ends
Battle Duration
Battle length scales with the skill level.
The duration depends on the Capture skill level and equals 30 seconds per level.
Capture Result
Winning grants control over the location.
The winner gains adaptation to the Capture skill and becomes the owner of the location.
If the winner is part of a colony, the territory becomes owned by the entire colony.
