Emperor Season 6 - Release Notes
Good day Emperors! Like promised, here is the change log of upcoming season of Emperor! Be aware! There are some changes to the Technology Tree and Civic Tree so be sure to check that one out as well!
Structures
Added two new structures.
Tree Farm
The Tree Farm is a unique structure which can chop wood for you. It will automatically plant trees and will chop them down afterwards for you.
The base processing speed is 1x per 60 seconds, but can be upgraded to it will process quicker. For each structure level you upgrade it will reduce 5 seconds from the processing speed and will unlock a new type of axe which you can input.
In the Tree Farm you can toggle the tree type you want it to chop down. You can also toggle if you want to break the axe when it reaches 0 durability, or to keep it.
Whenever it breaks the tree, you will also gain any other drops you can gain. For example sticks, saplings and apples.
Sawmill
In this structure you can process all types of wood into their planks and into special types of wood.
If the storage chest becomes full the structure will jam and stop working until the storage chest is cleared. It is important that the Sawmill's storage chest is emptied often or it will not function. Unlike other processing structures, this structure does not have an output in the warehouse
The Sawmill is very simple to operate, simply put logs into the input chest. The logs will then start processing and generating their planks and sometimes, if you're lucky, special types of wood which is needed to craft gear.
The Sawmill has a base processing speed of 16. Unlike other structures, the sawmill doesn't have a leveling system.

Units
Units got a complete overhaul, adding unit specific upgrade trees and removing the "level button". Instead, you will have to input the required strategic goodies when you're promoting the units.
Leveling a unit costs time not, requiring gaining experience by doing labor tasks. Each unit has a special task and will require something else to do. Each Unit and their task is visible on the wikipedia.

As shown above, the Worker unit has been split up to 2 separate units, the Miner and Lumberjack unit.
World Events
A World Event will launch once every 36 hours and is an event where everyone can participate in order to gain loot.
Currently, there are two world events;
Big Ruin
In the Big Ruin event, a big ruin will spawn within 1000 blocks of spawn and everyone can go to the ruin. Loot will spawn fast, and the event will last for 30 minutes. Be sure to bring your gear, since other players can kill you as well!
King of the Hill
If this event launches, be sure to head over to spawn as fast as possible and head into the portal near the spawn location! This will teleport you to the KOTH world where your Civilization needs to get the most points by holding the top of the monument. PvP is enabled, so be sure to bring enough potions and gear!
In TAB you can see how much score the top Civilization has. At the end of the event, the founder of the Civilization will get a package with loot inside.
