11 The War Map is the centerpiece of the war system the EVILBANE team plans to build after its first Steam playtest. It was described in a developer note from the game's producer published on October 15, 2026, during that test. None of it was in the playtest itself; the note says the content will be added gradually over future development and that details, names, and translations may change.

33 The Idea
44  
55 In the playtest, operations stand on their own. In the planned version, every operation becomes part of a larger war. The operations players complete reshape the world map: together, players reclaim lost land, while land they fail to defend is seized again and turned back into a battlefield. As the producer put it, "It's a world where today's defeat becomes tomorrow's crisis."

77 The Map

99 The War Map sits in the command room of Base Camp, the survivors' last stronghold, and shows the state of the war across the Middle Realm at a glance. It covers two continents, ten regions, and forty-six territories, and every territory is in one of three states.

1313 Seasons and Chapters
1414  
1515 The war is planned to run in Seasons, each covering one major event, with Chapters that unfold that event step by step. Every player's operations push the front line forward and add up to a shared victory that reclaims territory. The enemy does not sit still: it invades held territories, and any land the players fail to defend falls back into enemy hands. Once the front line has been pushed far enough, the colossal being that rules that region reveals itself.
