Development

The Banners were the first revealed as a gear addition exclusive to the Aquilifer Weekly Blog #27: Aquilifer, Banners, Age III Analysis on January 18th, 2020.

Banner concept art.

Since there is nothing like a Banner in the game, we seized the opportunity to create a new gear class. We had originally thought to call them Standards, but found Banners to be more fitting (such as in the term “fighting under the banner of Rome”). We also would like to leave open the possibility of other civs one day using this gear slot, so we are hesitant to make the name too civ specific.

We are thinking maybe 20 different Banners at launch (perhaps two Legendary versions). We see little purpose in killing ourselves with tons of low level uncommon and rare versions that you will all inevitably phase out once you hit Level 40. We expect some Banners to be droppable, others to be for sale in Rome, and a few craftable at the Infantry School. We‘ll have some fun.
