Greetings Leaders,

 

DomiNations update 12.9 is on the way! This larger update will give Alliances a new Parliament Branch to explore. Our players in Drone Age and beyond can look forward to new books to research in the Library. We also give you an early glimpse at two upcoming Legendary Artifacts, and highlight the next Councilor for your Council Chambers!

New Parliament Branch - Defense Funding

Many of our highly productive Alliances have expressed that they’re hoping we’re adding more to the Parliament Building. With 12.9 we’ll be introducing the Defense Funding branch, this branch helps your Alliance Members navigate Defensive upgrades, and improves Defenses in World Wars. This feature won’t be live until the Update is available for all players.
