# Beta Campaign Guide

Welcome to the world of **Vampire Wars**, a RTS MMO game still in its pre-Beta phase. As the game evolves, so will this guide, offering you the latest updates to navigate the ever-changing landscape of this immersive universe. Let's dive into your temporary story walkthrough, tailored to guide you through the current features and set you on a path to Power and Territory Domination.

## The First Task: Mint Vampires

Your journey begins with minting your first vampires. Navigate to the Transactions page, accessible through the account menu, and mint the three vampires awaiting you there. These initial vampires are untransferable, forming the cornerstone of your burgeoning vampire empire.

## The Second Task: Claim xDarx

Next, proceed to the Chronicles page and press the "Claim xDarx" button. This action equips you with sufficient xDarx to acquire 9 territories, right in time for the next task.

## The Third Task: Buy Territories

With the claimed xDarx you are now ready to claim new territories. We recommend purchasing territories in the following cities to participate in the campaign effectively:

* Lhasa, Tibet, China - Pop. 559,000, Tier 4 city
* Nujiang, Yunnan, China - Pop. 534,337, Tier 4 city
* Municipio Maturin, Venezuela - Pop. 760,000, Tier 4 city
* Shizuishan, Ningxia, China - Pop. 730,000, Tier 4 city
* Malegaon, Maharashtra, India - Pop. 764,628, Tier 4 city

Use the search bar in top-right and locate the cities. Make sure your selected territory shows the correct city in the card before purchasing it. Once minted, it's yours forever, and cities are tricky on the map. Acquiring these territories converts a portion of the spent xDarx into DARX, which you can use to craft three extra small-sized crypts or one normal-sized crypt that will fit your three vampires.

## The Fourth Task: Craft Crypts

With your territories secured, it's time to craft crypts. Head over to the Assets menu, select the Crypts page, and mint yourself an extra small Crypt. You have the option to upgrade this extra small crypt into a normal-sized crypt capable of housing three vampires, or you can just purchase another 2 XS Crypts. There is a strategic difference, but you need to figure it out by yourself.

## The Fifth Task: Assign Crypts

Now, assign your newly crafted crypt(s) to the territory of your choosing. This strategic decision will lay the groundwork for your empire's expansion and defense.

## The Sixth Task: Assign Vampires to Crypts

The next step involves assigning your vampires to the crypts. This allocation is crucial, as it allows you to send your Vampires to hunt and start earning those juicy rewards. It also determines your strength and presence across your territories.

## The Seventh Task: Start Hunting

With your Vampires securely housed, begin hunting. Choose your hunting spots wisely, as the success of these excursions is pivotal to your growth and survival in the game.

## The Eight Task: Expand and Conquer

Finally, the path to dominance involves expansion and conquest. At sunset you will be able to claim the hunting rewards and start earning Blood. Your territories will produce $DUST & $XYNTH, and once every day, your collected Blood will be converted to $xDARX. The more you spend on territories and crafts, the more $DARX you receive so you can build your Crypts and spread across the globe.\
\
Form clans, acquire more territories, craft crypts, and create items to enhance your vampires' base stats. Your ultimate goal is to conquer cities and triumph in the campaign.\

This guide is your beacon in the shadowy world of Vampire Wars. As the game progresses through its Beta phase, adapt your strategies, embrace the evolving gameplay, and rise to become a legendary vampire lord.
