http://static.cdn.ubi.com/0034/int/forum/pictures/2016_06_summerevent/header/INT_UK_header_footballs.png

The event resource is called Footballs. They can be traded and are listed in the Storehouse (Event tab) as usual.


Footballs can be gathered in a variety of ways: https://ubistatic-a.akamaihd.net/0034/int/forum/pictures/2018_06_summerevent/2018_06_20_SE2018_footballs.png

Collectible footballs spawn on the home zone
Normal Adventures have a chance to drop footballs, including scenarios and some mini-missions
Event adventures from the event calendar always drop a fixed amount of footballs
Event quests reward footballs
Treasure hunts can reward footballs on top of the usual loot
Event achievements reward the player with Footballs upon completion
The merchant
Trading with other players





http://static.cdn.ubi.com/0034/int/forum/pictures/2017_03_easterevent/1/EN_new_quest_chain.png

Introducing A Host of Responsibilities, a new quest chain that starts at level 22 or above. It deals with the costs and responsibilities of hosting tournament matches on your island. The rewards focus on coins, a stacking population growth buff (that is immediately applied; it doesn't go to the star menu), and a big reward for completing the whole chain.

For the first 15 days of the event, a new quest in this chain will be unlocked and starts if or when you have finished the preceding one. For example, if you don't finish the first quest until the third day, then you will get the second quest immediately upon completing it, followed by the third quest after the second one is done. If you then complete the third quest on day three, you will still not receive the fourth quest until the fourth day of the event. The daily time during which a new quest is unlocked should match the first time that you logged in during the event. The new quest chain's sub-quests unlock after a certain number of days after your first login during the event, and not the event start.



http://static.cdn.ubi.com/0034/int/forum/pictures/2015_03_06_dd_scenarios_dquests/header/EMEA_EN_header_dailyquests.png

Every day, you will receive a random quest, similar in scope to regular daily quests, that will reward various tactical resources. Running Premium time will trigger two such quests.


http://static.cdn.ubi.com/0034/int/forum/pictures/2016_06_summerevent/2016_collectible_items.png

http://static.cdn.ubi.com/0034/int/forum/pictures/2016_06_summerevent/header/INT_header_fixture_list.png

A tournament quest chain will guide you through the mechanics of the event, in regard to collecting of tactical resources, production of tactics buffs and their use in the event scenarios. The quest chain is linked to the Fixture List, as the quests will often ask you to open certain doors.

In order to access the Fixture List, just click on the icon next to your avatar.

http://static.cdn.ubi.com/0034/int/forum/pictures/2016_06_summerevent/header/INT_header_tactictal_resources.png

There are 12 different Tactical Resources which you can use in the Provision House to produce Tactical Items. These tactical resources are tradeable and can be acquired in the following ways:
As loot from regular adventures
As collectables on the home island
As additional loot from treasure searches
As a reward for event quest
As purchase from the in-game merchant



http://static.cdn.ubi.com/0034/int/forum/pictures/2016_06_summerevent/2016_collectible_items.png


http://static.cdn.ubi.com/0034/int/forum/pictures/2016_06_summerevent/header/INT_header_tactictal_items.png

Tactical items are obtained through the Provision House, and can be used as follows:

They are needed to successfully complete Event Adventures.
Most of them are usable against multiple different skills.
They are produced from combinations of types of 2 Tactical Resources (except for "Red Card", that requires Advanced Paper)




https://ubistatic-a.akamaihd.net/0034/int/forum/pictures/2018_06_summerevent/2018_06_20_SE2018_tactical_items.png

http://static.cdn.ubi.com/0034/int/forum/pictures/2016_06_summerevent/header/INT_header_adventures.png


Adventure Doors can be opened any time for free, once the respective date was reached (even if previous doors were not opened).
Therefore, every player is able to play all the available adventures.


http://static.cdn.ubi.com/0034/int/forum/pictures/2016_06_summerevent/2016_football_adventures.png



5 non-combat Event Adventures inspired by football matches become available through the Fixture List: Practice Match, Round of 16, Quarter-Finals, Semi-Finals, and Finals.


The goal of the Special Event Adventures is to win football matches by countering all of the opponents' skills.
You do this by applying the correct Tactical Items. Every opponent unit/skill can be defeated by either of two Tactical Items (your choice).



http://static.cdn.ubi.com/0034/archive/Forum_int/Pictures/2014_06_18_bandit_camps_v2.png


Adventure Tournament Mode
Bear in mind that your matches have to be completed in order. You will not be able to start an adventure if you haven’t completed the quest to beat the previous one first (*). To make things easier, if you cancel one of the adventures it will return to you by mail. Your progress will not be saved, but you won’t get stuck and you can use this method to scout your opponent’s skills.

* The adventure "Practice match" does not have to be completed.




http://static.cdn.ubi.com/0034/int/forum/pictures/2016_easter/DD/header/INT_header_achievements.png


https://ubistatic-a.akamaihd.net/0034/int/forum/pictures/2018_06_summerevent/2018_06_20_SE2018_football_icon.pnghttps://ubistatic-a.akamaihd.net/0034/int/forum/pictures/2018_06_summerevent/2018_06_20_SE2018_achievements.png
Completing event related achievements is a means of earning footballs. The achievements do not contribute to the overall achievement score and the ones that have not been earned by the end of the event will be hidden from the achievement menu.
The achievements deal with many aspects of the event:

Completing tournament adventures
Opening all doors of the Fixture List
Completing Summer quests
Earning footballs through explorer searches
Collecting event collectables
Producing tactical buffs
Trading tactical resources



Winning all matches earns you a golden statue: the Champion's Trophy 2018!

Dear settlers,

The information published in the Dev Diary regarding daily event quests when running Premium time was incorrect. The entry has been updated.

Daily event quests are not doubled for Premium time users.

We would like to apologize for the confusion.

Happy Settling,
BB_Sious

[BB_Sious]

Dear settlers,

Please be aware of the following change concerning the event deactivation date:

The event deactivation will take place on 30th of July, ~21:59 UTC

This means that the event merchant phase is prolonged, to ensure you have enough time to spend any remaining footballs.

Happy Settling,
BB_Sious

Dear Settlers,

Many questions about the Lucky Explorer limit have been raised and some elements of the Summer event in the game.

Lucky Explorer
The limit will be raised to 9 for every player.
If you didn't obtain a Lucky Explorer with Gems during the event, you can do so after the next game update.

Summer event deactivation
The event collectible items and event buffs will be removed with the next game update. The logo and the loading screen will also be reverted back to normal. These elements are still visible due to the extension of the deactivation phase.

The next game update is scheduled for August 14th 22nd 23rd. A change log will be published on Monday, August 13th.

Happy Settling,
BB_Sious
