Levels

By earning points, players can gain levels. Gaining levels unlocks additional features or maps that players can use, among other things.

Levels don't make you stronger

The idea of leveling up is familiar to anyone who's played an RPG. However, WarLight’s leveling system has an important distinction: In WarLight, levels don’t actually make you stronger. WarLight is fundamentally a competitive strategy game, and games will always be won or lost based on your strategy alone. Levels will not do anything that gives you an advantage in a game. It’s just as easy for a level 1 player to defeat a level 30 player as it is for a level 40 player.

Rewards

Leveling up unlocks rewards. Once a reward is unlocked, you have it permanently.

Map Levels

By gaining levels, players can gain access to additional maps. Players only need access to a map in order to create games or tournaments on that map. If they are invited to a game or tournament, they can always join it no matter what level they are.

Map creators are in full control of what level their maps unlock. As a map creator, you can log into your map at any time, click the "Edit Name/Description" button and set the level. You can do this even after it's public. If you want your map available to everyone regardless of their level, you can just set your map to level 1 and everyone will be able to use it.

The advantage of setting a level to your map is increased visibility. For example, if you set your map to level 10, whenever someone levels up to 10 it'll pop up a message on their screen letting them know they've unlocked your map. For best visibility, you should try to set your map to a level that has few other maps assigned to it (or at least, where your map is rated more highly than the others at that level.)
