Conqueror's Blade Team

Gustav II Adolf, the innovative genius of artillery tactics. He devoted himself to streamlining the army and optimizing equipment, successfully turning artillery into an independent branch of the military, closely cooperating with infantry, cavalry, and logistics teams to improve tactical execution efficiency.
 
This artillery unit, composed of local Swedish warriors, was the first independent artillery force in the Western world. Their name, along with Gustav's glorious achievements on the battlefield, together became an eternal memorial.
 
Unit inspiration

• 
  During the era of wars, cannons were commonly used by all nations. However, among the military leaders, it was only Gustav II Adolf who saw cannons as the core of revolutionizing warfare in that age. He handpicked the best of his country's officers and formed a dedicated artillery unit. The establishment of an independent artillery unit was an unprecedented initiative. During that time, military commanders of various countries often viewed cannons as cumbersome heavy artillery, which lack mobility. However, the king believed that by modifying the cannons themselves to overcome their mobility issues, cannons would become the decisive weapons of the next era's battlefield. He shortened the cannon barrels, lightened the carriages, and standardized the production of cannon parts. Consequently, that northern nation's artillery units could deploy and move cannons at any time and place. The excellent battlefield judgment and combat determination of artillery officers also made this unit a undefeatable force in Western world of that time.
  
• 
  Those who surpass are always blessed by the era. This unit, along with their king, became legends of that era, with their cannon fire described by poets as the "roar of a lion," shaking their enemies.

Featured Gameplay

• 
  Deploying powerful artillery, fifteen soldiers are divided into three artillery groups, firing dense and numerous shells at the enemy to create a saturation attack.

Unit skill
Skill 1:

• 
  Set Up Artillery (Set up the artillery at the designated location)
  
• 
  Move Artillery (Move the artillery to the designated location)

Skill 2:

• 
  Attack Area (Immediately fire at the designated location)

Skill 3:

• 
  Defensive Shooting (Shoot the nearest enemy with a pistol)

Note: The final effect is subject to the actual in-game performance after the season launch.

In the early 17th century, a new era of warfare dawned. Gustav II Adolf of Sweden revolutionized the battlefield with his innovative use of linear infantry tactics. His armies, organized into lines of disciplined musketeers, could unleash a devastating barrage of fire, leaving a profound impact on Europe. By the latter stages of the Thirty Years' War, both the Habsburg Empire and the Electors of the Rhine had adopted similar reforms, forever changing the face of warfare.
 
Background Story:

• 
  In the long years of war, if one were to ask which kind of people were most common, the answer would undoubtedly be the mercenaries who traversed between various factions. These seasoned arquebusiers never fought for honor; rather, they viewed chaos as a ladder, aiming to seize fame in the midst of conflict. The northern nation, with its small territory and a population fewer than the Rhineland states, found itself in greater need of their strength to partake in this grand war. Interestingly, these fickle mercenaries ended up staying within the army of the Northern Lion, even becoming the backbone of the military. In their own words: "We can smell victory here." Gustav II Adolf devised new tactics for these experienced veterans. Utilizing rapid maneuvers and shooting, their great gunpower can overwhelm enemies many times their number. When cavalry charged like a torrent, they would counter with their swinefeather spears, sending the enemy straight to hell. These veterans, who had brushed shoulders with death countless times, were adept at handling any situation on the battlefield.
  
• 
  "You lads, stick with me! There may be plenty of kings in this world, but there's only one who knows how to fight." — Mercenary leader, Monroe.

Unit Inspiration:

• 
  They are composed of British mercenaries recruited by Sweden, capable of repelling enemies with portable anti-horse stakes and inflicting significant casualties on the enemy using modern volley fire techniques. They maintain strict military discipline, possess exquisite skills, and fully utilize the Gustavian formation's tactic of firing in lines. The portable pigtail gun stock they carry provides significant assistance for their precise shooting. Moreover, when they insert the gun stock into the ground, forming variously shaped anti-horse stakes, the strategic value is self-evident, forcing would-be aggressors to disarm and surrender.

Featured Gameplay:

• 
  Having relatively short attack range but powerful burst damage, strict military discipline, and exquisite skills.
  
• 
  Having a gunstock provides higher accuracy, but when the gunstock is inserted into the ground, it generates Cheval de Frise sufficient to deter enemies.

 
Unit skill:

• 
  Skill 1: Attack Area (continuous shooting into a designated area)
  
• 
  Skill 2: Gale Strike (Six column formation instantly transforms into three columns, then opens fire simultaneously, providing powerful firepower suppression to the target area.)
  
• 
  Skill 3: Spears & Thorns (insert the butt into the ground within a certain range to form a strong Cheval de Frise)

Note: The final effect is subject to the actual in-game performance after the season launch.

The Conquerors Blade Team

After Gustav II's military reforms, the cavalry of the Northern Kingdom underwent a dramatic transformation compared to the mainstream cavalry on the continent.
 
At this time, the continental cavalry still followed the traditions of the classical era, dominated by aristocrats, while the cavalry of the Northern Kingdom was entirely composed of mercenaries. This allowed Gustav to put into practice his tactical vision for the cavalry of the new era: "Fire only when you see the whites of the enemy's eyes!"
 
Unit inspiration

• 
  During the Thirty Years' War, a gunpowder revolution was brewing. Knights from the Rhine region shed their heavy armor, retaining only essential protective gear, and abandoned their lances in favor of matchlock muskets. They often employed a tactic known as the "Half-wheel tactics" and relied more on harassing with firearms rather than engaging in direct charges. However, Gustav II Adolphus took a different approach. He ordered the cuirassiers from the Rhine in his army to abandon the half-wheel tactics and cumbersome long muskets. Instead, they used short muskets at extremely close range and then fearlessly charged with their swords.
  
• 
  “The cuirassiers of the Lion won't fire until they see the whites of their enemies' eyes"， a warlord once remarked. He had personally witnessed the cuirassiers firing at extremely close range, then drawing their cavalry swords and ruthlessly cutting down their enemies who mechanically followed the "half-wheel tactics." On the battlefield, those who sought death survived. A century after the fully armored knights had been defeated by gunpowder, this army seemed to have brought back the fearless charge to the battlefield.

 
Featured Gameplay

• 
  The cuirassiers, first introduced by Gustav II Adolphus, carried a pair of improved muskets that were not affected by rainy weather. They excelled at close-range shooting against their enemies. This combat method maximized the power of gunpowder, offering high shooting accuracy and destructive force. It was particularly effective in controlling and inflicting damage on heavily armored enemies.
  
• 
  After firing at close range, the cuirassiers could charge into enemy lines at extremely high speed, launching swift and fierce attacks until they tore apart the enemy's defenses.

Unit skill

• 
  Roar of Powder

Firing special gunpowder bullets at their targets, the cuirassiers inflicted significant damage and had a knockdown effect on enemy troops. After both muskets were fired with special gunpowder bullets, they entered a cooldown period during which the cuirassiers could not use their muskets for regular attacks.

• 
  Tearing Strike

The knightly posture returns to the world! Using their knightly swords, the cuirassiers execute several fierce thrusts at close range.


Note: The final effect is subject to the actual in-game performance after the season launch.

Greetings, Warlords!

• 
  During the transfer, it is not possible to carry items and resources that have been listed by the [Auctioneers], as well as unclaimed items and resource piles. It is advised to empty the Auctioneers before maintenance to avoid any losses.
•

Massive congratulations to YB, champion of the Western Conference, and JX, champion of the Eastern Conference!
 


This Saturday, CB's first global match will be held, and we are thrilled to witness this exciting moment.
 

 
As you know, CB is now working on forming a global community, and this match is also an opportunity for you to meet players from all over the world. This is not only a global match but also a friendship match. Therefore, we’re bringing some new changes:
 

• 
  The teams will still compete in a BO5 format.
  
• 
  The following popular maps, which have been frequently selected, will be banned on both sides: Hidden City, Wall Fort, Harbour City, and White Elk Fort. (A new challenge for our outstanding teams, huh?)

There are also some technical issues like ping differences. This is because the distance between Europe and Asia is really far, so ping issues objectively exist. However, we will try our best to provide a better battle experience for all warlords. We have prepared a new tournament server that will offer nearly identical ping for both sides, ensuring that the two teams can participate in the competition fairly and smoothly. Nonetheless, the slogan of this global match should always be 'Friendship first, competition second’.
 
Stay tuned on Saturday and follow our streams here:https://www.twitch.tv/conquerorsbladedevs 
We will share the exciting matches with you in real-time on that day!

When Gustavus Adolphus landed in northern Germany with his army, intervening in the long-running Thirty Years' War, the Free Imperial Cities regarded him with skepticism. How could these barbarians from a distant winter, who couldn't even equip their cavalry with proper armor, defeat the Imperial army under the Habsburg banner?

Aurora's Glory Design Notes
It was not until after the Battle of Breitenfeld that the independent city-states within the Holy Roman Empire realized the profound transformation that had taken place within the northern reinforcements. They began to rally around this king, even as his enemies began to learn from him...

• 
  Rumor had it that the new King of the North was an eccentric man. He disliked royal etiquette and rarely attended high-society gatherings. Instead, he preferred to spend his time in workshops with engineers and mathematicians, discussing obscure theories that would make ordinary people's eyelids droop after a few sentences. Court attendants even attested to seeing the king disguised as an officer, sneaking into other countries to inspect their armies and arsenals, often putting himself in danger. Yet, he reveled in it. He was more like a general or a ranger than a king. However, only those closest to him knew that the king had long foreseen the dark clouds gathering over the Western world. A great war was coming, and as king, only by surpassing the times could he make the name of the Northern Kingdom resound throughout the world.

• 
  Primarily inspired by the attire of musketeers and military nobility during the Thirty Years' War. The female attire is based on the sword training garb of Queen Christina, Gustavus' daughter, while the male attire references historical depictions of Gustavus himself.

 
Northern Lion Attire Design Notes
 
As Gustavus Adolphus arrived at Lützen under a shroud of fog, Generalissimo Wallenstein and his 20,000 elite troops awaited. The King, eager to crush them before Imperial reinforcements arrived, charged into the thick fog with his royal guard...
 

• 
  Brigands, massacres, plunder, blood...
• 
  In the dark years of war, a hopeless night enveloped all, as if hell had returned to earth. People, numb and driven mad, slaughtered each other. It was then that the roar of the "Lion of the North" tore through the heavy darkness. His cannons drove back the demons disguised as men, his sharp blade severing their ignorance.
• 
  People remembered the prophecy: "The northern star heralds the arrival of the lion, who will bring light back to the world." The king, from then on, was seen as a symbol of transcendence. All believed that the king, clad in the symbol of the morning star, forever charging at the forefront of his army, would lead the world out of the darkness, through the fog, and towards the future of their dreams.

• 
  Based on Gustavus' image at the Battle of Lützen, emphasizing his title of "Warrior King."
• 
  The cape on his back bears the imagery of the morning star, alluding to the prophecy of astrologers that Gustavus, as the Lion of the North, would become the savior of the West.
• 
  The lion-shaped helmet emphasizes his title, "Lion of the North."

The fires of war intensify.
Witness the revolution in warfare on September 19th.
