    I sometimes feel I understand, but I really don't anymore. I understand it's just domination but you have to take all halls, but I really don't understand the shops and especially not when I spawn and only have 1 arrow.

    Also, what the fuck is up with the day-night cycle? If it were in all modes, I probably wouldn't be playing KAG.

    well i dun know where i should start explaining to you LOL. There're much to explain ,the shops is something which u get to take the other halls like Catapult, Ballista ,Bombs ,Demolition or even water ammunition, u can get your arrows from that. Those items are really helpful for Archer and Knight ,u need them ,believe me. The Day and Night cycle is just something ,well the night might probably blind u ,thats why lantern is helpful for you though. And there's still other mode like CTF(capture the flag) ,Challenges ,Sandbox ,and many more which include mods and stuff. Give it a try and u will be addicted to KAG :wink: Have Fun!!!

    Like he plays for the first time.
    First you open the technology panel and vote for what kind of ammunition and stuff you want, you can choose only 1 way (water or bomb/catapult or ballista etc). You build shops near the hall or else workers can't work in it. You can buy workers with gold, you assign them into a shop and they start to produce the stuff automatically. If you hold E you can see the progression and what kind of item is next. After that, they drop it on the ground, or in the hall storage if you built it that way.
    You start with nothing, so all you have is what you produce. There are no coins either. Once you take a hall you capture all the enemy buildings around it. When a hall is being captured you can't spawn there. For the night, you can carry a lantern in your backpack to light the area around you. Not a good mode, and mostly newbies play it. This is it mostly.

    Take the Hall was a nice gamemode turned into a capture point. they tried to make it more interresing like five shop by points but if you have the skill you will easy win by just taking eatch hall as knight.

  5. I think TTH is most noob friendly servers, the infinite supplies of equipment. Capture the point is also familiar in many games. I think the day and night cycle promotes the use of lanterns to new players. The tech tree IMO is a cool little feature of researching things which makes you believe your making progress within the game getting better equipment.

    so its like ctf but halls.so the halls that you capture will turn into spawn points if you capture them.So the aim of the game is to capture all the halls so the opposition cant respawn

    DECK THE HALLS WITH A MONTH BEFORE CHIRSTMANS CHEER!!!!
    Take the halls is actually a gamemode designed by MM and Geti to help newbies get used to the game, and to spread the cheer of festival happiness out to all of the KAG community, from the offices of THD. With this gamemode, people are happy to frolic around building massive bases that just end up getting taken, then exploding with the sheer amount of mines you guys hid inside, making the whole point moot.

    And the best thing is, since all of the people at THD know how none of you guys have a life, they were kind enough to implement the day night cycle, so you can spend your Christmas Eve on your local TTH server, playing from the comfort of your cardboard box that you call home. @FuzzyBlueBaron knows ALL about that.

    So let's all have a song for this awesome gamemode!
    Deck the halls with boughs of holly,
    Fa la la la la, la la la la.
    Tis the season to be jolly,
    Fa la la la la, la la la la.

    Don we now our gay apparel,
    Fa la la, la la la, la la la.
    Troll the ancient Yule tide carol,
    Fa la la la la, la la la la.

    See the blazing Yule before us,
    Fa la la la la, la la la la.
    Strike the harp and join the chorus.
    Fa la la la la, la la la la.

    Follow me in merry measure,
    Fa la la la la, la la la la.
    While I tell of Yule tide treasure,
    Fa la la la la, la la la la.

    Fast away the old year passes,
    Fa la la la la, la la la la.
    Hail the new, ye lads and lasses,
    Fa la la la la, la la la la.

    Sing we joyous, all together,
    Fa la la la la, la la la la.
    Heedless of the wind and weather,
    Fa la la la la, la la la la.

    Ahem.
