The struggling human race in Age of Conan fights for fame, fortune and, of course, power. In the world of Hyboria fighting for survival is the way of life, and leagues of men stand ready to conquer land and structures in search for ultimate power. In this brutal universe vast numbers of nations are spread over the face of the planet, and borders and alliances shift constantly as kings, lords and war chiefs launch assault upon assault against their neighbors, whether it may be nations, cities or other tribes. The political struggles between men is evident through all of the Conan lore, and the battle for power often turns into primal battles for survival and the right to exist as a people.
As a player in “Age of Conan” you can take part in epic conflicts with full force, fighting for the ultimate in dominance and power. In the area called the Border Kingdoms -- situated outside the game’s three nations Cimmeria, Aquilonia and Stygia -- player guilds can fight for the right to control large battlekeeps. Once captured, players will have to defend their property against the ruthless attacks of other players, driven by both greed and envy. At the same time players can also build entire cities outside the Border Kingdoms, which other players can not attack! You must however be prepared to defend them from sieges brought on by computer-controlled enemies hiving next to your city.
Take part in massive and epic PvP battles, and fight for the right to control large battlekeeps in the Border Kingdoms.
Build your own guild city in regions outside of the Border Kingdoms, and protect it from computer-controlled invaders.
Engage in brutal PvP mini-games such as last-man-standing.
Fight it out in the unique PvP form called drunken brawling -- get drunk, stir up trouble and make mayhem as you crush your enemy with fists, tankards and broken table-legs.
Earn Blood Money, a seperate PvP currency which can only be gained on the battlefield. Crush your enemies and use the riches to acquire benefits.
Let the catapults sing their merry song of death as you defend your battlekeep with siege engines, or destroy your enemies' fortifications with the same means.
