GbG Championship Season 8: Battle for the Fort Imperial!

Dear Battleground Champions,

The latest Championship is over now and the next one already launched! However we don't want to miss this opportunity to tell you about the next Championship reward: The Fort Imperial!

Fort Imperial

Just like the other Championship buildings, this building is a Championship reward, specific to the Diamond Leagues.

Again, you have to win at least three Diamond League Battlegrounds in a Championship to get enough Fragments to unlock level one and win FIVE Battlegrounds in a Championship to unlock level 2! However, keep in mind that the Fort Imperial - Lv. 1 produces Fragments for the Upgrade Kit as well. This means you will be able to level up the building to Lv. 2 with Fragments alone.
