Setting & Factions

War Banner takes place in a low-magic, dark medieval fantasy setting very loosely inspired by Andrzej Sapkowski’s Witcher Novels. Players embody the roles of soldiers of either the Southern Empire or The Alliance of Northern Kingdoms. Each event is a player vs player battle that will change the border between the Empire and the North.

Empire of the South

When the great houses of the south elected Emperor Aurelion I the empire began a campaign to unify the continent under one banner. Strength is derived from a unified people, free from the oppression of corrupt monarchs. Those that deny the Empire’s light will be eclipsed by its shadow.

The Alliance of Northern Kingdoms

Drawn together by common cause, the kingdoms of the North fight for honor, independence, and liberty. The Northern Alliance will stop at nothing to defend its borders from the imperial heathens and preserve their way of life.

Rules

If you wish to participate in the War Banner, you must read and adhere to the following rules. Sometimes a battle scenario might have special rules that supersede the base rules in this document.

Weapon & Armor Standards

One of the primary risk reduction measures is to ensure that all weapons, regardless of brand or age are checked and tagged before entering the battlefield. At battles, bring your weapons to check-in and you can have them checked and tagged immediately after.
