Higher tiers bring tougher and more numerous enemies, but also increase experience, victory gold and the hourly income from conquered land. Early provinces build enemy numbers more gradually.

The schedule

Every province introduces a faction formation. Higher-tier provinces combine more formations, and each faction gains a new enemy from its second province onward. Ordinary marches build toward a closing surge led by a Champion. Warden marches instead bring back familiar formations around the Warden's arrival and end only when the Warden falls.

The timer brings the final enemy onto the field; it does not win the province for you. Defeat the Champion or Warden to finish the march.

How the horde grows

Enemies arrive more slowly at first and build during the opening seconds. Higher tiers place more enemies on the field, while the earliest part of a march offers extra rations to help a new build stabilize.

Levelling

Upgrade rarity chances

Rare and epic choices become more common as your run level rises.

The chances reach their final values at level 20. If one rarity has no valid choices left, the others become more likely.
