Sage Wars is a web-based, massively multiplayer online game. You will be competing against hundreds, maybe thousands, of other players from around the world in your quest for glory.
Rounds
Sage Wars is played in rounds. A round is a month long and starts on the first of every month, between 6PM and 12AM Eastern Standard Time. The previous round ends at the same time the new round begins. Winners are calculated automatically and prizes are sent within 7 days of the end of a round.
You can join an existing round without penalty for up to 3.5 days after the round has begun. After that, you begin to lose turns as the round progresses. However, you should use this opportunity to familiarize yourself with the game and give several character builds and strategies a try.
Turns
Turns are used for every action within Sage Wars. Each action requries a varying amount of turns. You can see the turn requirements for each action in the Sage Wars Help under the 'Game Panels' section.
Your character earns 5 turns every 5 minutes. At 5,000 accrued turns, your character earns only 3 turns per 5 minutes with an overall maximum of 30,000. It is a good idea to always keep your stored turns below 5,000 so you do not lose them.
How To Win
Sage Wars tracks many different statistics throughout the course of a round and prizes are awarded for the top player in each stat division. You may view the current round leaders and divisions in the Hall of Fame. The winners of previous rounds can be found in the Hall of Fame Archives.
