Announcing: New Ranks!

I'm happy to announce the creation of new ranks! As you know, up until now the highest rank possible was 16. Now I have added 10 more ranks beyond this, i.e. 17-26.

Who will be the first to achieve Rank 17?

If you're curious what the new rank shields look like....

... you'll have to rank up and find out!

As you can see I've made all new, higher-resolution versions of our ranks. I've kept the symbols for R1-15 the same. R16 you'll notice has changed... we will keep the Skull logo reserved for the highest rank possible (which is now R26). (Hint: It continues following the logic of atWar's original counting-based system of symbols, up to R19. Starting at R20, we embark on a new system.)

By the way, if you want to start ranking up a little faster, I'm trying out a new 3x SP boost option in-game. Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Good, at least something is moving forward. Now we need more upgrades for super mega ranks, or it will be just difference in symbol between r 10 and 27 (or 16 for now).

I thought I'd share the original rank spreadsheet from Afterwind (2017) (a project I worked on previously outside of AtWar): These ranks seem to have made it officially into AtWar now, sans post-15, as well as my more recent take on hi-res AtWar ranks circa May 2019. Glad to see rank updates... despite my extreme discontent with R20+ especially, but no matter.

I like the new shields, the old ones were very tiny. It feels strange because we are so used to the old version, but in time we will forget them.

Did I heard "new upgrades"?

This is pretty dope, although the SP gain to reach these ranks must be proposterosly high?

Will my grandson ever be able to see a red skull during his lifespan? I pray Dave to grant us this one wish.

As a side note, Rank 11 looks too damn close to rank 7. Therefor, can you take away my sp and make me a young innocent rank 7 again?

Interesting i heard "3x SP games" omg.

Now as all the guys said, we need more upgrades for the higher ranks (like most cheap attak units, new strategies that boosts the secondary attack units, etc)

I think they should bring back industrial powerhouse (before all u competitives get your dicks soft off this statement) buildings were the main focus of this entire strategy yet no one could utilize buildings in custom games so you could only enjoy it in world map(which people would disable them anyways). I feel it would've been a lot more well received(from scenario players specifically) if buildings actually worked in custom games and you could use the strat in those games

Hey no hard feeling but the symbols look too big this is terrible. You can call me an autist but I am sure everyone is having struggles to ignore the difficulties.

Anyways thank you for the update. I don't want to be negative. But seriously fix this.

Browsing experience on Safari (one of the most used applications globally-wise) was perfect so far. And it does'nt make sense to foul it in order to be ready to Victory's 2025 farming campaign.

Is it only me, or when you move your mouse over the new rank icon, when selecting units from a stack in the field, like this:

the small selection window closes? The icon does not seem to have the same property that keeps the window open (like it used to have).
Not the end of the world, I just thought I would mention.

If I am some newcomer I would say that r16 shield is more like r6 (5+1). R7 and r11 almost same.
Why not continuing making top rank a skull emblem and other ones like this?
