A persistent browser-based game, or PBBG, is a computer game that satisfies the following two criteria:

2. It is persistent. Progress in the game is achieved over multiple playing sessions.

PBBGs merge the depth and longevity of an application-based game with the accessibility and portability of a browser-based game. PBBG can be spoken as pee-bee for brevity.

The dreaded Cao Cao has been moving to crush his enemies and conquer the region in one fell swoop. His men suffered a devastating assault at the hands of Liu Bei’s forces. With his stratagems falling to pieces, Cao Cao turned to dark magic. He at last gave his court sorcerer permission to work great and terrible magics, to twist the world to better suit his ambitions. The sorcerer and his acolytes carried out a massive ritual in the capital, rending the barriers between worlds.

The battlefield is now awash with powerful demons and strangers from distant lands and times. While Cao Cao’s kingdom has gained new and powerful allies, so have their enemies.

The war yet rages on, with no end in sight.

Epic Kingdom-wide Combat

Experience PvP action on a scale like no other. Venture into battle to raze enemy forts and strongholds; or join other player armies to take over entire cities and ports, with each conquest and defeat changing the tide of war.

Ship-Based PvP

Players experience the rare opportunity of convening on a seafaring vessel to take down enemies. Ships are tied to the in-game guild system, and the captain of the ship can assign navigation, gunnery and repair roles. Up to seven players can work these roles on one vessel – but many more can be on the ship’s deck as support raiders.

Siege Engines

For ultimate conquest, and when players absolutely, positively must kill every last enemy soldier in a stronghold – look no further than siege weapons. Player armies can use ballistae, catapults, trebuchets or battering rams for a lightning-quick assault, or a full-on brute force siege of city defenses.

Resource Management

Player-conquered cities can become vital sources of income for a guild. Once a city is taken over, an administrator is put in charge to develop building upgrades and defenses, and is rewarded with taxes collected on local business. However, greedy players will soon find their coffers empty as the pulse of the market travels elsewhere.

Customizable Armies

Players can customize their formidable armies to a great extent, from diverse unit categories to different types of formations and marching orders. Players can even give old armor pieces to soldiers to bolster strength for the battles that lie ahead.
