PvP Arena
The PvP Arena is a feature for all players of a world to compete and to show their battle skills against other players on a weekly basis.
The PvP Arena will reset every Sunday, when all players will receive their rewards according to their ranking. Players who have been inactive for 2 consecutive weeks, will take their defending units back and will not receive any rewards. They can always join the PvP Arena upon request.
Upon researching the 
'mercenaries' technology in the tech tree (available in Early Middle Ages), you will be redirected to our PvP Arena onboard's info screen, which will present basic information about the new feature. When you close it, you will be able to access the PvP Arena through the entry-point in our new off-grid building.
Battles
In the Battle tab, you can see a list of opponents, subdivided into four columns:
The first column, Level, represents the level of difficulty of your opponents, ranging from 1 to 3 stars. 
Green flags with one star represent easy battles, while 
blue ones with two stars would be of a medium level, and finally, the 
red ones with three stars are the most challenging opponents.
The second column, Opponent, shows your possible targets, presenting information such as their current eras, as well as attack and defense bonuses for their defending units.
The third column, Points, will show how many ranking points you will receive upon beating this opponent. Remember that the more difficult the challenge, the higher is the amount of 
Combat Points at stake. In other words, you gain CP and may potentially rank up when winning, or you can also lose CP and rank down. That said, make sure to choose your opponents wisely.
Finally, the last column, Attack, offers you three buttons to battle any chosen opponent. Battling them will consume your Fil:PvP - AtemptsCoin.png attempts, which appear at the top of your screen. Altogether you have 5 attempts, and after each battle, it's necessary to wait 2 hours until an additional attempt is renewed. Nevertheless, by clicking in the + button, it is possible to purchase additional attempts with premium currency.
Army Management
On the left side of the Battle tab you can see your current Ranking and Combat Points, as well as your armies' boosts, Army Management and Reward buttons.
By pressing the Your Army Button, you will be redirected to the army management screen, similar to your main city's one, where you can define your PvP Attacking and Defending Units.
Most boosts from your Great Buildings and your Main City apply to your PvP Arena armies, including Tavern Boosts but shields for the city doesn't count.
You can define your PvP Arena defending army when you first enter the Arena, which can not be used as attacking at the same time and these units will not be available in your main city any more.
If your units get defeated while defending in PvP Arena you will not lose them, but they will immediately heal.
While you can see your opponent's strength you will not be able to see his units and they will appear as question marks when attacking.
Attacking vs Defending
Attacking is an active action while defending is a passive one. Attempts and Units are not lost while defending, but you can still gain or lose Combat Points ( CP) as a defender, and If you end up a Weekly Arena with less CP than when you have entered, your CP will be reset to the entry amount when the league is over. Please be aware that attacking someone will automatically shuffle your list of available opponents, no matter if the battle was won or lost.
Besides that, there's no manual battle mode, which means that both attacking and defending actions are fought through auto-battles, with the units you select for attacking and defending.
The PvP Arena will also enable your Great Buildings passive skills (
Advanced Tactics, 
Fierce Resistance, 
Military Boost, and 
Spoils of War), but not the active ones (
Critical Hit, 
First Strike and 
Missile Launch).
Ranking
All players receive a starting amount of 6000 Combat Points. As you cannot share a rank, until you begin fighting, the initial fighting will reflect global ranking. However, this will begin to change as soon as you start fighting.
The ranking is defined by the amount of Combat Points (CP) compared to the other players.
Upon opening the ranking tab, it will display the ranking for the weekly PvP Arena in progress. This way, you can keep track of both your progress and your opponents' progress.
Log
The "Log" tab will show your results from the last battles (attack and defense), as well as the time the event happened and how many points you earned or lost. With this info, you can have better strategic control over which opponents are worth fighting or simply avoiding, but remember that these logs are reset together with the Weekly Arena every Monday!
Rewards
As mentioned above, in the main window of the PvP Arena, under your profile you can see the Weekly Reward button, which will show your position in the current ranking and the Fil:PvP - ChestIcon.png rewards you can obtain based on your position.
Please keep in mind that this a weekly ranking, and that all rewards are always given on Mondays. In case you were not an active participant in the previous PvP Arena session, you will not receive any reward. Also, being inactive for two consecutive weeks will automatically kick you from the upcoming PvP session, unless you manually sign up by yourself.
The primary reward is medals. However, there are further reward chests available depending on your ranking.
