Worked example: from one Siege to season end

All numbers are the real ones in use: Siege rules v5 and Terrain as seeded with Rimehold. The guide checks them every time it is built

The zone: Frostmaw Peaks, zone 1 on Rimehold. It is in region 4, its terrain is Mountains, and nobody holds it yet. Rimehold counts normally (x1).

1. The first Siege (Tuesday, 13:40)

Ash (Magma) and Bea (Frost) call a ranked 2v2 on the zone. Cal and Dee, both Void, defend. The attackers win.

Both sides rolled with electronic Cores, so nothing is halved for hand-entered rolls. But Bea has had a busy day: she has already earned 28.5 influence from Sieges today, and the daily limit is 30.

Player	Faction	Result	Influence
Ash	Magma	win	3
Bea	Frost	win, but only 1.5 left under today’s limit of 30	1.5
Cal	Void	loss	1
Dee	Void	loss	1

Waiting to settle: Magma 3, Frost 1.5, Void 2.

2. Settlement (Tuesday, 14:05)

Mountains settle at full speed, so all of it moves in.

Magma	Void	Frost	Holder
3	2	1.5	Magma (nobody held it; Magma has the most)

3. Void strikes back (Thursday, 19:10)

Cal and Dee call a ranked 2v2 on the same zone. Eve (Magma) and Fox (Toxic) defend. Void wins.

Eve and Fox had no electronic Core and tapped their rolls in. So not both sides used an electronic Core, and everyone’s influence from this Siege is halved.

Player	Faction	Result	Influence
Cal	Void	win	3 × 0.5 = 1.5
Dee	Void	win	3 × 0.5 = 1.5
Eve	Magma	loss	1 × 0.5 = 0.5
Fox	Toxic	loss	1 × 0.5 = 0.5

4. Settlement (Thursday, 20:05)

Magma	Void	Frost	Toxic
3 + 0.5 = 3.5	2 + 3 = 5	1.5	0.5

Magma holds the zone, and it is on Mountains, so Void needs 25% more than Magma: more than 3.5 × 1.25 = 4.375. Void has 5. Void takes the zone.

5. The map closes

Weeks later, Rimehold closes. All pending influence counts, then the zones are counted:

Faction	Zones held on Rimehold	Influence on Rimehold
Void	17	212
Magma	17	198
Frost	11	140
others	15	–

Void and Magma hold 17 zones each. Void has more influence, so Void wins Rimehold. (These zone and influence totals are made up for the example. The rules are real.)

6. The season ends

The season had three maps:

Map	Winner
Rimehold	Void
Cinderreach	Magma
Gloamspire	Void

Void has 2 map wins, Magma 1. Void wins the season, even if Magma held more zones in total. Void’s players get the season reward. Bea fought for Frost, but her influence still helped Frost hold its own zones.
