Every year on September 1, all schools celebrate Knowledge Day! This is a holiday for schoolers (especially first-graders), their parents, teachers, students, and, for everyone who teaches and learns. The 1100AD team congratulates all students and their parents on this wonderful and very first fall holiday!
In honor of the holiday, today in the 1100AD world begins a holiday vacation with special offers, gifts, and games that will last from August 27 to September 10!

FESTIVE ATMOSPHERE


In all cities where there is a free cell of sand or grass, a special, festive building - Pencils will appear. Once in a while, they light up with different colors and bring a gift to their owner. Check your pencils regularly and have fun with the gifts you find! Among the gifts you can find - resources, artifacts, unique soldiers, gold, and diamonds.


LOTTERY
You can also find the holiday lottery in Pencils. There will be a window with 9 gifts in the holiday lottery, and you need to open 3 of them. Based on the total number of points, you will receive a Bronze, Silver or Gold gift, which includes resources, soldiers, buildings, and other bonuses. In order to play the lottery, you need a lottery ticket, which can be purchased with buying gold or obtained using an artifact - the book of wisdom. One lottery game costs one lottery ticket.
By playing the lottery, you can also get a special prize - the draft of the Great Warrior Monument. To do this, you need to reach 100% in the progress bar.


PLAYING ALL TOGETHER

Take part in the match-3 mini-game and try your luck among the best!
The rules of the game are very simple: It is necessary to collect in a row or column of 3, 4 or 5 identical elements. Depending on the number of items collected, the player receives points.
Collect game points and get super prizes! The more games you play, the more valuable the prizes you get.
A combination of 2 bombs gives a special amount of points.

Statistics on the number of points are kept for each player and for each Order, and at the end of the holidays, the TOP-10 best players and the TOP-10 best Orders on each server will receive valuable prizes.

Additionally, we are announcing a mid-server competition!

The best 3 players from the TOP "Match Three" will receive special prizes, including a special city with special buildings, but each player can receive only one prize in the following nominations:
- The best player in the mini-game;
- The best decorator;
- The best collector of combinations;
- The best player in terms of efficiency;

After awarding 15 top-ranked players in the above lists, this time we will reward 15 more players from the top “best mini-game player” * who performed well but failed to make it to the top 3.

* The player receives only one prize for only 1 nomination

Follow game statistics, and win unique prizes!


NEW TEMPORARY SOLDIERS

During the celebration, old acquaintances will appear in the game - the Sharpshooter and the Wiseman. A soldier can be obtained for a mini-game, purchased with promotions, or received as a gift. The soldiers will serve until the end of October, after which they will be automatically removed.

GROWING UP - ADDING NEW LEVELS TO BUILDINGS.

Some draft buildings received additional levels of development: a temple, a sundial, a clan castle, a monument, an obelisk of glory, a winter residence, and a strongbox.

RECYCLED ARTIFACTS
The onset of autumn in 1100ad was marked by a revision of permanent artifacts that are morally obsolete. There are many of them and we all remember them: Teutonic Knight shield, the Crusader’s sword, the Holy Bible, the Diary of a Hero, etc., which was once relevant and valuable.
We have reviewed these artifacts.
They are now no longer permanent. These artifacts received a new bonus and became temporary. You can still collect them in the forge in the temporary artifacts section, and buy in the diamond store.
Among other things, we added these artifacts to the drop in quest locations.
Therefore, play smart!

HOLIDAY TOPS
And according to the old tradition, we announce two holiday tops.
Each temporary quest location for these 2 weeks will drop: 1100ad medal, 1100ad cup, dark grimoire, book of wisdom, magic feather.
Players in the top-10 of collecting these artifacts will receive valuable prizes.


The second top will be fraught with the danger of being hit by a pointer from the evil teacher Anna, who will appear from time to time after exploring quest locations. In some cities, these mischievous teachers can teach whole workshops. Be careful!
However, the top 10 daredevils who dealt with them will also be rewarded with valuable prizes.


HOLIDAY DISCOUNTS
During the holidays in the game store you can find items at low prices, as well as the different discounts.
