Straight From Castle Age

Still the only type of battle with the Boss from the game's start appearing everytime you attack (Kull).

Battle of the Dark Legion

December 22, 2009 by Vulcan

Battle of the Dark Legion!
The Dark Legion of orcs is marching across the plains and approaching your castle! Call To Arms and gather your army to fend off the orcs. Survive the attack and destroy the invaders to achieve victory. As more people join the battle, there will be more individuals to help you defend the castle!

Limited Time Gift
To thank all the Castle Age players and to celebrate the holiday season, we have released a limited time gift! Gather all the necessary ingredients and head to the Alchemy Page to get Angelica to join your ranks! Angelica will only be available through the new year so ensure you gather all the necessary ingredients before she is no longer available.

Easier General Selection
You can now directly buy and select the hero as your general from the Quest Page. Simply click on the portrait of the hero and a menu will pop-up to allow you buy and select the hero.
