Airdrops
Supply drops appear across the map from time to time — most often at points of interest such as castles, ruins, lookout towers or hilltops. Common drops carry a few items; the rarer treasure chests hide more and better loot. Drops disappear after a while, so do not linger. Remote rural areas receive more generous loot and a larger collection radius. An Observatory reveals airdrops beyond your sight.
Raid bosses
Mighty monsters periodically awaken in the world — the Forest Dragon, Mountain Golem, Swamp Hydra, Fallen Knight or Deep Kraken. Defeating one takes the combined effort of several players: a boss has an enormous health pool, grows fiercer through phases during the fight, and strikes back at its challengers. Rewards are split by damage share, the top three fighters earn a bonus, and players take turns drafting the rare items from its treasure.
NPC garrisons
Wild regions are guarded by garrisons — from primitive tribes to the dreaded Dark Legion. The higher the region, the tougher the defense. Garrisons are not merely passive: now and then they invade a claimed region and cut its production until driven out, and their patrols occasionally venture as far as your buildings. Neglect your borders and you will lose them.
