Epoch 1: Elemental Awakening

🌍 Overview​

Epoch 1 marks the foundation of War of Continents. In this phase, players enter the world by minting their first NFT Lands and Generation 0 Heroes, setting the stage for all future growth. This Epoch introduces essential gameplay systems, resource loops, and the core mechanics of upgrading and exploration.

We recommend starting with at least one Land and three to four Heroes to fully experience the game loop. Lands serve as your resource hubs, while Heroes are the engine that drives all actions β€” from missions to upgrades.


πŸ”‘ Core Gameplay Loop​

  1. Mint Lands and Heroes using Platinum Coins
  2. Assign Heroes to Lands
  3. Run Missions to gather resources (Elementals, Seals, Daily Rewards)
  4. Upgrade Elements and Seals on Lands
  5. Harvest and store Gold
  6. Repeat and grow

πŸ’° Platinum Coins (WOCPTC)​

Platinum Coins are the ERC-20 token at the heart of the War of Continents ecosystem. They are used to:

  • Mint new Lands and Heroes
  • Access and unlock missions
  • Fuel future upgrades and events

Platinum Coins are tradable both inside and outside the game, forming a bridge between gameplay and the broader blockchain economy.


🏞 Lands​

Lands are your primary base of operations:

  • Minted as NFTs via Platinum
  • Have unique attributes: type, coordinates, building slots, elemental affinities
  • Act as resource containers and production centers

Lands produce Gold, store Elementals, and evolve through upgrades. Each Land holds four Elements β€” Air, Fire, Water, Earth β€” which determine efficiency and bonuses. The stronger your Elements, the more your Land yields.


🧝 Heroes​

Heroes are the lifeblood of your empire:

  • Minted with Platinum
  • Have randomized stats:
    • Rarity (Common to Legendary)
    • Gender
    • Element (Air, Fire, Water, Earth)
    • Base characteristics

Every Hero is an NFT and required for all in-game actions. The Generation 0 Heroes minted during Epoch 1 are limited-edition and provide early adopters with exclusive advantages and long-term strategic value.


🎯 Missions​

Missions are the key gameplay activity in Epoch 1. They are performed by Heroes and serve to gather resources, develop your Lands, and strengthen your strategic position.

πŸ”„ Hero Transfer​

New Heroes must complete this mission to be stationed on a Land. Without it, they can’t participate in gameplay.

Elementals are rare and vital. You’ll need them constantly for upgrades. Heroes search for them and bring them back to be stored in Vessels.

πŸ’° Claim Gold​

Collect the Gold your Lands generate over time. Use it for upgrades and eventually, for trades and marketplace actions.

πŸ”’ Upgrade Seal of Element​

Elementals leak over time from Vessels. Upgrading Seals reduces this leakage and helps maintain your resource supply.

πŸ”₯ Upgrade Elements​

Stronger Elements on a Land = more Gold per hour. Use Elementals and Gold to level up your Land’s four Elements.

πŸ” Seal Hunt​

Search for new Seals. These items are crucial to preserving Elementals and enhancing land efficiency.

πŸ—“ Daily Mission​

A simple, recurring quest with randomized rewards β€” great for passive progress and testing Hero performance.


🧠 Strategy Tips​

  • Specialize Heroes by Element to maximize synergy with Lands
  • Balance your resource loop: Elementals β†’ Seals β†’ Upgrades β†’ Gold
  • Focus early on Seals to reduce loss and increase sustainability
  • Generation 0 Heroes are a long-term investment β€” use them wisely

πŸš€ The Beginning of Greatness​

Epoch 1 is your first step toward mastering the continent. Every mission, upgrade, and minted NFT builds your strategic foundation for the future. As the world expands through future Epochs, your early investments and decisions will define your strength, influence, and power.

Build smart. Upgrade boldly. Your empire starts now.
