PVE

PVE Battles
Rigth now there aren't so many possibilities for PVE matches. First of all you got a number of tutorial PVE battles, in which the movement, unit commands, siege weapons and battle opjectives are explained.

Expedition "Siege of Skylark Fort"
You can choose to fight in a expedition by pressing "J" and move to the PVE tab. The objective is to defeat the enemy general at the base camp. First of all you need to defeat the enemy army in front of the fort. The enemy army consists of archers, swordsman, pikeman and mele cavalry. There are plenty of siege weapons you can use to your advantage. Replenish your troops before you go up the wall by using a siege tower. Defeat any units standing there. Now move further behind the wall and down the stairs to fight in the final battle and at last against the enemy general.

Bot fight
If the server population is quite low (e.g. early mornings) then it can take some time to get enough people for a PVP battle. So the matchmaking will throw everybody into a half PVP, half PVE match on a special arena map. You will fight against the same amount of enemy generals (players) added up to 6 vs 6 by bot generals.

Bandits
If you travel in the open world you can find npc bandits roaming there. They are after youryour precious resources and life. You can either pay them by offering a certain amount of bronze or try to fight them. Be aware that they can get really strong. So strong that you need a whole team to kill them. Some even have their own enemy NPC general(s). But by defeating them you will earn rewards such as hero resources and bronze. So it might be worth it.
