Three Seasonal Units are coming to Conqueror’s Blade: Sengoku when the Japanese-inspired update arrives on June 1. In addition to the Seasonal soldiers, there are also other new Units to unlock and have fight by your side.
With blade in hand and bushido spirit in heart, learn more about your new warriors.
Seasonal Units
Ronin (3-Star)
These masterless martial arts masters excel at launching sudden and highly lethal attacks. They call themselves the Ronin and wander the land, protecting the people from tyranny and evil. While their garb may indicate simplicity, their skills are unmatched.
The Ronin’s Parry Trait gives them a slightly increased attack each time an enemy attack is successfully blocked. Order this Unit to Charge at foes, and inflict extra damage with a Iaido Strike.
Onna-musha (4-Star)
Trained arduously from a young age, the Onna-musha wield their blades with deadly precision. While it is not unusual for young women of the nobility to learn the use of weapons, the ongoing baronial war means they are often called on to put this knowledge to practical use.
The Onna-musha possess the Anti-Cavalry Trait, meaning their attacks have cavalry-blocking effects, and deal 26% more damage, as well as slowing them by 60% for a short period of time.
Order these fearsome females to Charge, and release multiple attacks with their Onslaught.
Orochi Samurai (5-Star)
Exceptionally deadly and lethal, the Orochi Samurai wade into battle with their trusty weapons. Their blood-red armour is sturdy but equally efficient at instilling fear in the enemy. They stand their ground with a smile against even the fiercest of charges with their fearsome yari spears.
This Unit can use Disrupt to delay enemies from attacking in melee or using Skill Orders, then follow up with Disrupting Sweep to hit multiple enemies. Double Strike doles out two quick attacks in the designated direction.
Non-Seasonal Units
Naginata Monks (3-Star)
While the teachings of the Naginata Monks shun all weapons, the naginata is a weapon that can be learned quickly and also functions as a staff. As desperate times call for desperate measures, the temple monks took to arms to defend their homes. These organised fighters can mount counterattacks without fear or hesitation.
This Unit can brace its weapons and charge forward, bringing the fight directly to its foes.
Mace Sergeants (3-Star)
The Mace Sergeants were originally established to stand against any would-be invader. They specialise in battering their way through doors, castle gates, and enemies. Yet, with time, their prowess continued to grow, as did their influence. Now, they take on any mission that puts their skills to the test.
Use Cover Commander to gain protection from this Unit in sticky situations, and unlock Meteor Strike via Veterancy Points to unleash multiple attacks, especially effective at smashing through shielded Units.
Matchlock Ashigaru (4-Star)
While they fight with firearms rather than follow the way of the sword, the Matchlock Ashigaru are an elite force to be reckoned with. Their great achievements cemented their name in the history books.
Order this Unit to Attack Area and make a strategic attack in a designated location to hone in on your foes. Through Veterancy Points, the Matchlock Ashigaru can fire more than one bullet per shot.
Unit Mastery
Mastery for the first batch of Units will become available at the start of the Season. Simply complete the related quests from the Warden to unlock this new feature.
IMPORTANT: This article is accurate as of the time of publication but is subject to change. Please read the Sengoku patch notes and Unit Guides throughout the new Season for the latest information!

All or Nothing is now playable in Escalation only.
You can have a maximum of three players per team.
Players now have 700 total Leadership.
If you earned a Golden Treasure Trove in the previous All or Nothing event, you are not guaranteed an Eternal Weapon Cache in your first opening.
All or Nothing will be playable in the following time slots:
16:00 CET - 20:00 CEST (EU) / 10:00 - 14:00 EDT (NA)
22:00 CET - 02:00 CEST (EU) / 16:00 - 20:00 EDT (NA)
Every victory yields 1 Star, but defeat even once means losing all the Stars you have earned so far. Exchange them while you can or risk it all for more Stars! 3 Stars are needed to exchange for a Golden Trove.
Exchange your Stars for Iron, Silver, and Golden Treasure Troves via the Event Page. Open Golden Troves to claim the Eternal Weapon Cache and take your pick from the following Weapon Skins:
Cave Dragon Pike

Striking Hawk Chain Dart and Scimitar
Treasure Troves can include Treatises, Silver Keys, Gold Dust, Artillery, Protection Charms, Artificer's Stones, and much more.
Protection Charms can be purchased from the in-game Store for added protection. Consuming a Protection Charm will prevent the loss of Stars if you are defeated.
In this article, we’ll be discussing upcoming features that will arrive in the new Season. However, the content only details the thoughts during the development stage. Please refer to the live version when available for specific details.
With over 100 Units released to date in Conqueror’s Blade, more strategies are readily available for players than ever before, but this also makes some Units unviable in the current meta.
We've rolled out plenty of balance changes in the past year, and this has brought the underused Halberdier Sergeants and Dagger-Axe Lancers into an overall more comfortable place. Naturally, this is but a drop in the ocean as there are still plenty of underused Units that gather dust in their respective barracks.
We've therefore been looking for a new way to resolve this. Hopefully, this new feature will give you all something new to work toward.
Unit Mastery
We'll be releasing the Unit Mastery system in a June update. Now, let's delve deeper into what Mastery brings, how to unlock it and how it becomes available.
What is Mastery?
Unit Mastery is a brand-new Unit growth system. A Unit's Mastery gradually unlocks as you level it up, enabling you to increase its attributes and alter its skills or mechanics. This system will bring new possibilities for all Units. Who knows, maybe Silver Era Units with high Mastery might even be able to stand their own against Units of the Heroic Era!
Unlocking Mastery
First, if you select a Unit you've unlocked for which Mastery is available, you'll be met with a menu like this.
A Unit's Mastery unlocks in stages based on its level. The items you need to unlock Mastery can be found daily in specific PVE content and the Honor Shop (we'll describe this feature in greater detail at a later time). There are daily and monthly caps in place for each of the two acquisition methods. By completing this PVE content daily, you'll be able to unlock Mastery for up to three Units a month based on the level of that Unit. Choose to train your favourite Units further and empower them so that currently underperforming Units can stand on their own in battle.
How Mastery Becomes Available
Initially, Mastery will be available for 2-Star, 3-Star, and 4-Star Units, and we'll be adding Mastery for around five Units each month. We'll most likely spread Mastery evenly among the three Unit tiers. We'll be announcing which Units will be the first to get Mastery in a few days!
What's more, to reduce the attribute difference between older Units and newer and Seasonal Units, we'll be raising the level cap of 2-Star and 3-Star Units in the Unit Tree and Season Challenges to level 18, and that of 4-Star Units to level 24.
Promotions
With Promotions, we enabled some Units to be promoted into new Units. However, based on feedback from the Legacy of Fire and Scourge of Winter Seasons, as well as our own observations, the Promotion system is difficult to understand and just doesn't feel great overall. And so, we'll discontinue adding new Promotions.
We've kept an eye on Promotions throughout the Seasons, and have come to the conclusion that they don't fit Conqueror's Blade. We'll therefore be removing Promotions within June, and simultaneously changing how promoted Units are acquired.
Units affected by this:
Symmachean Stalwarts
Symmachean Paladins
Landsknechts
Armiger Lancers
Liao's Rangers
We'll be making the following changes to the affected Units:
You will now be able to create these Units directly without relying on the base Unit.
As for their Season challenges, the first Stage reward which allows you to create the base Unit remains unchanged. Later rewards to promote said Unit will be replaced with rewards that enable you to unlock the other Unit too. So, by completing the quests you won't have to promote the Unit, but get it directly. For example, Yeomen which could be promoted into Armigier Lancers will now give Yeomen in the first Stage Reward and the later reward that originally promoted them to Armiger Lancers will now grant Armiger Lancers directly.
Promoted Units and their original version can be used together.
With the removal of Unit Promotions, these Units must now be created individually and will therefore not gain any of the original Unit's levels or Veterancy points. If you're planning on promoting a max-level base Unit to get a high-level promoted Unit, we advise you to do that before the update launches.
We'll continue to explore further possibilities for Units. If you have any feedback regarding Units or Mastery, tell us on Discord.
