An Overview

Utopia is a world of honor and nobility. While you can carve out a lifestyle of deceit and betrayal, there are some unique and powerful rewards for living honorably. Over time, good deeds will earn you recognition throughout the world. As you accumulate this honor, you will be granted Titles of Nobility, each of which offers benefits to your province. Seek out honor and you will find that your province grows more quickly in the future. Honor is measured in Utopia by points that are gained and lost as a byproduct of specific actions.

Obtaining Honor

Achieving Honor Points is a fairly simple process -- you gain honor by taking risks and capturing it. As you begin your fledgling province in Utopia, you will gain some honor just for surviving in the harsh world around you. After this initial period, Honor can be gained through successful attacks, spells, and thievery operations. Notoriety only comes with risks -- you will not gain honor for taking advantage of smaller, weaker enemies, or by being a pest towards substantially larger opponents. You will gain little honor for working on your own outside the bounds of your kingdom. Honor is earned by dedicating yourself to the success of your kingdom.

Titles of Nobility

As you reach certain milestones of Honor, you will be granted various Titles of Nobility. As with Honor, Titles of Nobility can be stripped from you should you fall below these milestones. Each Title will provide various benefits to your province. The Titles are as follows:

The Benefits of Honor

Honor has inherent benefits due to your notoriety and your people's respect for your leadership. For each title acquired beyond Knighthood (or Ladyship), your province will see these benefits. For each title acquired above and including Count / Countess, your province will receive double benefits:

2% Increase in your maximum population
2% Increase in your income
3% Increase in your offensive military efficiency
3% Increase in your magic effectiveness
3% Increase in your thievery effectiveness
