Game modes
Capture the Flag
CTF is currently the default game mode in King Arthur's Gold. In this game mode both teams have a flag waving over their tent. The first team to capture the flag from the opposing team and return it to their own tent wins. If unit limit is enabled on the server, the game also ends when a team runs out of units and all the remaining players are dead.
Gold Hunt
This game mode puts the teams in a race to gather the most gold. A team becomes victorious by gathering a set amount of gold before the opponent. Digging for gold is not the only victorious plan, players can also steal their way to victory. Gold can be stored in sacks in this mode.
Rapid Deathmatch
This is a custom game mode with 0 unit limit (meaning players do not respawn after they die) and the only available classes being knight and archer. Each round is played until one team kills the other.
Rift
The rift separates the two kingdoms.
This is where the battle takes place. Usually there are lots of catapults and archers on each side.
A team can try and construct a bridge across it.
Griefing
Griefing is a term used by many players to describe the act of hampering your own team. Whether its destroying your team's constructions, obstructing paths intended for your team, or shooting them with catapults - any intentional act that gives disadvantage to your own team is considered griefing. This also includes team swapping to harm the opposite team.
