Factions

See http://musicfamily.org/realm/Factions/ for up to date information.

There are several types of Factions: Vanilla, which includes the Good & Evil Factions, Neutral, Prestige, and Mercenary. The Vanilla Factions show up by default, but the others first need to be unlocked. Once unlocked they will stay unlocked throughout all soft resets.

To affiliate with a Faction, you first need to choose their Alignment by purchasing their Proof. This makes all the Factions of that alignment available, and you can then choose which one to affiliate with by purchasing their Trade Treaty.

Description & Structure

Titan Faction upgrades

Each Faction has its own Faction-specific spell and 3x4 Tier upgrades (or 4x4 for mercenaries), and each bare their own distinctive appearance and color code. Faction upgrades have the faction-color for the background, and the interior metal-colors are the same for all factions.

In the example image on the right are the 12 yellowish Titan Faction upgrades.
In the first row are the bronze colored Tier 1 upgrades, in the second row, the silver colored Tier 2 upgrades, and third, the gold colored Tier 3 upgrades.

For all factions, the first upgrade of each tier are:

1. Trade Treaty, always represented with a scroll, enables to affiliate with the faction in question.
2. Friendship Pact
3. Alliance For vanilla and neutral factions, enables the related prestige faction's trade treaty to show up.

These can only be purchased in order of tier : Once the Trade Treaty has been purchased, the Friendship Pact will show up, and once the Friendship Pact purchased, the Alliance.

For all factions, they unlock the following metal-colored upgrades of the same tier, and cost Faction coins. The remaining metal-colored upgrades cost gold coins.

Notation:

In order to simplify, instead of using the full individual names of each Faction upgrade, they can be identified numerically. For example : Druid (2,3) refers to the third secondary Tier upgrade belonging to Druid, which, in this case, is an upgrade named Shapeshifting.

In Mercenary build templates, the faction upgrades are numbered 1 to 9, and are preceded by the faction abbreviation.

Tips

In the early game, it is advised to quickly affiliate with each Faction at least once, because for each Faction, purchasing all their upgrades once grants their Faction Champion trophy, which in turn rewards their exclusive and universal Heritage upgrade.

The quantity of bought faction upgrades is tracked throughout reincarnations, and is required to unlock Bloodlines.

Related Secret Trophy
	Affiliating with all six Vanilla factions for the first time will grant the Grand Diplomat secret trophy. This rewards an upgrade of the same name which increases your chance to find Faction Coins by an additional 1%.
