The Herald
Your Herald’s Dispatch is a running feed of what’s happened across your realm — land you’ve claimed or fortified, milestones earned, walls that held, sieges, rank advancements, and court or Kingdom Region changes. It reports outcomes, not every march: a campaign that didn’t claim or change anything won’t add an entry, and after a quiet stretch the Herald simply reports that your kingdom stands firm. Notifications: if you allow them, the app can alert you to urgent moments while you’re away — your land coming under siege, a territory lost or won, or a rank advancement. You’re in control: manage or silence these from your device’s notification settings (on iOS, Settings → Notifications → Ashenmarch; on Android, the app’s notification settings). The Herald’s Dispatch feed is always there in the app whether or not notifications are on.Strava
Strava is a data connection, not a sign-in. You log in with Apple, Google, or email; connecting Strava just lets your activities import (automatically via webhook, or manually from the Strava page). You can disconnect any time.Membership
Every new player gets a 30-day free trial with full access — claim land, build your house, raise your rank, join a court, all of it. After the trial, you continue with a membership. Cost: 59.99/year (the yearly plan is the better value). You purchase and manage it through the App Store or Google Play, and you can cancel any time from your store account. If your membership lapses: you never lose your account, your rank history, or your total-ever-claimed milestones — those are permanent. While a membership is lapsed your current territory weakens faster and eventually returns to the map as unclaimed land, but resubscribing lets you reclaim and rebuild it.Privacy
The realm reveals numbers, never places or times. Others can see your house name, coat of arms, rank, and the territories your house holds on the map, plus public aggregates like your total ground held and your honours. They cannot see your home or most-visited spots, your exact route paths, when you tend to march, your real name or email, or your exact coffers. Your individual march details — route, distance, times — are yours alone.Deleting your account
You can delete it in the portal. Your account is deactivated immediately and fully removed after a short recovery window (you can sign back in within that window to restore it).
