Siege

Sieges in Camelot Unchained will take time, resources and guilds/Realm coordination; keep trading will be strongly discouraged, and losing keeps/stabilizers will hurt. Territory control and Siege warfare revolve around building, repairing and destroying structures (based on physics), together with crafting and transport of siege engines.
Collision detection will be very important factor in siege warfare, due to potential bottlenecks and use of shieldwalls, turtling and other formations which can slow zergs and reward good teamplay. Also, loot & pillage of enemy buildings will be possible.[1],[2]
Sieges are naturally connected with the Realm pride and the ultimate goal of each Realm in the Great War: conquering territories in order to dominate and shape the world.
