A server merge in Warhammer: Chaos & Conquest consolidates multiple existing realms onto a single map without erasing individual player progression. Your Chaos Fortress level, research rituals, champion equipment, inventory, and trained armies carry over completely. However, all world coordinates, alliance territory, and captured Seats of Power reset. Because your fortress lands at random coordinates under a temporary peace shield when maintenance finishes, your immediate task is coordinating with alliance leadership to teleport to a shared hive and rebuild outposts.
What Carries Over vs. What Resets
Account data transfers directly into the consolidated realm. Construction queues, ritual research timers, and marching armies will not be deleted; active marches return to your fortress automatically before the map resets.
| Feature | Post-Merge Status | Immediate Action Needed |
|---|---|---|
| Chaos Fortress & Buildings | Kept at current levels | Resume queues and check resource levels |
| Research & Rituals | Fully preserved | Continue active timers or select new rituals |
| Troops & Active Marches | Troops safe; marches recalled home | Verify full garrison is inside walls |
| Inventory & Warpstone | Fully preserved | Keep boxed resources safe in inventory |
| Alliance Roster & Level | Membership and levels preserved | Coordinate new hive zone via alliance chat |
| Map Coordinates | Relocated to random wilderness tile | Use gifted Advanced Teleport to regroup |
| Alliance Outposts | Dismantled and wiped from map | Rebuild outposts to claim new territory |
| Empire Seats of Power | Reverted to neutral NPC status | Prepare rallies for open contest phases |
| Duplicate Player Names/Tags | Appended with realm numbers | Use free name change token from mail |
Unprotected resources exceeding your Warehouse storage cap become vulnerable once shields expire. Stored resource chests in your inventory remain safe, but any exposed surplus should be invested into construction or ritual research before downtime begins.
Peace Shields, Teleports, and Rebuilding
Because multiple servers are compressed into one world board, the game assigns every fortress random coordinates upon reopening. The following protections and mechanics govern the transition:
- Automatic Peace Shield: A temporary peace shield applies to every account upon login, blocking scouting, hostile marches, and warband rallies while players reorganize.
- Early Shield Expiration: Launching any aggressive action, including attacking a roaming monster or raiding an enemy fortress, cancels your automatic shield immediately.
- Free Relocation Items: The game issues complimentary Advanced Teleports through the in-game mail so you can jump directly to designated alliance coordinates.
- Territory Rebuilding: Because alliance borders and fortresses are dismantled during the merge, leaders must mark a rally zone on the new map and dispatch member armies to construct fresh alliance outposts.
- Duplicate Name Resolution: If another player or alliance shares your name or tag, the game appends numerical server tags to resolve the conflict and sends free rename tokens to your inbox.
Recommended Post-Merge Action Sequence
- Verify Your Shield: Note the remaining duration on your automatic peace shield before issuing any commands to prevent dropping it prematurely.
- Collect Inbox Items: Open system mail to claim compensation gifts, Advanced Teleports, and rename tokens.
- Check Alliance Coordinates: Read alliance announcements or in-game mail to identify the designated X/Y hive coordinates.
- Teleport and Rebuild: Use an Advanced Teleport to jump adjacent to your alliance members, then commit builder marches to construct new alliance outposts and secure territorial borders.
