Top Lords Kingdom Duel and Capital Siege: How to Win as a Server

Kingdom Duel is server vs server in Top Lords: groups of 2 to 8 kingdoms compete over 1 to 3 weeks. From Sunday to Friday you collect Kingdom Points. The kingdom with more points attacks on Saturday and tries to take the enemy Capital. Capital Siege is the fight for your own server's Capital. It runs every Friday and is open to alliances with a level six city.

Both modes are won by coordination first and power second. Below: how points are scored, what happens on the day, and a plan R4s and R5s can run across a whole server.

Kingdom Duel vs Capital Siege at a glance

Sources: the fan sites toplordsintel and toplordswiki, checked October 2026, plus the official Top Lords Discord for the Saturday Kingdom Duel timings and players on live servers for the Friday Capital Siege day. Rules and values change with patches, so confirm the active event rules in game before you commit troops.

Kingdom Points: how the week is scored

From Sunday to Friday, events add Kingdom Points. At the end of Friday, server time, the kingdom with more points becomes the attacker.

World Boss, Alliance Duel and Race to Ace points are counted the next day. The table tells you where to focus: one World Boss damage win is worth more than eight Alliance Duel victories. Get every alliance on the server hitting the boss, not only the top one.

Saturday: the Capital attack

• Timing. Saturday attack rights settle at 00:14 server time, and cross-server teleport opens at 00:15 (official Discord note, October 19, 2026). Have your teleport and first marches ready a few minutes before.
• The attacker teleports into the defending kingdom and tries to capture its Capital.
• Lords from the same kingdom fight as allies when they march on the same structure. That does not apply to attacks on a Lord's Castle.
• Ballistas attack an enemy held Capital and can raise capture speed when your kingdom controls them.
• If the Capital falls, ownership goes to the alliance with the highest capture contribution.
• If the attacker's kingdom wins, its king gets the Conqueror buff. While it is active, Royal Position buffs get stronger and the Grand Marshal and Grand Steward positions open up.

Capital Siege inside your kingdom

Capital Siege runs every Friday, confirmed by players on live servers. It is a different fight from the Saturday Kingdom Duel attack. On Friday, alliances inside your own kingdom fight for your Capital. On Kingdom Duel Saturday, the winning kingdom attacks the other kingdom's Capital.

• An alliance needs a level six city to contest the Capital. Plan your city sieges as an alliance early, because the city is your ticket in.
• The Deadzone needs Castle level 12 or higher. Shields, March Speedups, Intel and Bounty Tasks are restricted there, so members need to be ready before they enter.
• Occupation scoring depends on Squad Power. Your strongest squads should hold, not chase kills.
• Royal positions and temporary favors can boost construction, research, training or healing. Winning the siege does not give every member the same benefit, so agree in advance who gets which position.

A server plan for R4s and R5s

Kingdom Duel is the one fight where alliances on the same server have to work together. The leaders who win it treat the week as one plan.

1. Sunday: one leaders' chat. Get the R4s and R5s of the top alliances in one group. Agree who covers World Boss, who pushes Gold Mine Conquest and how Alliance Duel weeks line up.
2. World Boss: everyone hits. At 250,000 points for the kingdom damage win, this is the biggest swing of the week. Post the boss time in every alliance.
3. Alliance Duel: every win counts. Each duel victory on your server adds 30,000 Kingdom Points. Smaller alliances winning their duels matter as much as the top alliance. See the Alliance Duel guide.
4. Friday: Capital Siege and stock up. Capital Siege inside your kingdom runs on Friday, so agree which alliance goes for the Capital. Keep enough healing, training and speed-ups in stock for Saturday too. Buying mid fight is too late.
5. Saturday: assign roles. Rally leaders, reinforcers, ballista crews, teleport timing (teleport opens 00:15 server time) and who takes which Royal Position if you win. Write it down and pin it.
6. After the fight: review the replay. toplordswiki has a good guide on reviewing kingdom battle replays instead of only the result.

Where spending makes the difference

On Saturday, squad power, healing and speed-ups decide close fights, and those come fastest with spending. The best time to buy is the week before: packs bought on Alliance Duel days also score duel points, which feed Kingdom Points. Our Top Lords spending guide shows the full calendar, and is Top Lords pay to win covers how far power can carry a fight.

Leaders coordinating across alliances can meet other Top Lords players in the Play Smarter Community, an independent players' Discord.
