The September 10 community dispatch from Gloria Victis author KebTheGuardian covers two threads: incremental changes to the game's State of War mode and a restatement of the broader development roadmap.

What changed

State of War — the guild-versus-guild conflict system — received several adjustments since its return:

  • The cap on alliance member participation has been removed. Previously, only a limited number of alliance members could take part in a State of War battle; that restriction is now gone.
  • Controlling guilds can now decide whether their alliance members are permitted to register for a given clash, adding a layer of organisational control.
  • Guild emblems now appear next to participant names within the battle roster.

Looking ahead

The studio also restated priorities drawn from a Development Plan published the prior week. The listed focus areas are:

  • Implementing Easy Anti-Cheat
  • Improving stability and performance
  • Addressing bugs and issues
  • Quality-of-life improvements
  • Monitoring and improving existing systems

The announcement explicitly notes that not every week will carry a major content reveal, and that some work proceeds without public visibility. Player feedback is cited as a factor in directing attention across these areas.

For players active in guild warfare, the removal of alliance participation limits is the most concrete change — larger coordinated forces can now field their full rosters without an artificial ceiling.
