An Adventure Beyond Time Begins!
Hello, dear Captains.

Here are the details of Improvements to Invasion.

1. Changes to the Invasion Schedule
The start and end times for Invasion will be adjusted.
- Current Schedule: 00:00 UTC, Friday – 23:59 UTC, Sunday

Unions signing up for Invasion will be divided into four groups based on their Unified Invasion Rankings.

1) These groups will be arranged from the highest to the lowest rankings.
