    Leagues are receiving a significant number of updates to improve their functionality and add collective advancement! There are so many new systems and features that we'd like to make sure everyone can start understanding how they all work and come together now, rather than waiting till they're on Test.

    League Halls are at the heart of this game update. They serve as a meeting place, trophy room, shared canvas, and source of power all rolled into one. Many of the new League features require a League Hall to access. In fact, there is no way to spend Prestige without a League Hall short of the act of creating the League Hall.

    League Halls are also a major location for content in DLC11, with instances taking place in your own League Hall! If no one in the group has a League Hall, you'll simply be taken to a randomly selected League Hall owned by another League.

    Creation
    League Halls may be created at consoles located in each wing of the Watchtower and Hall of Doom. Doing so requires both the "Can Spend Prestige" and "League Hall Admin" permissions.

    The first option the UI presents is Environment. While many Environments are planned for the future, the first available Environment to be released with GU39 is Lunar. Hence, all League Halls will initially be built on the Moon.

    The second option is Terrain. This represents a choice of landscape to build your League Hall in and affects your view from the Observation Room. The current options are: Sea (i.e. Mare, for you Moon buffs out there) and Crater.

    The final option is the specific location to select, given the previous selections. Each location has a Prestige cost for both the initial League Hall creation, as well as relocating the League Hall to that location.

    Sea Locations:
    • Sea of Clouds
    • Sea of Crises
    • Sea of Islands
    • Sea of Serenity
    • Sea of Showers
    • Sea of Tranquility
    Crater Locations:
    • Copernicus Crater
    • Grimaldi Crater
    • Kepler Crater
    • Plato Crater
    • Stevinus Crater
    • Tycho Crater
    Access
    League Halls may be reached in one of two ways:
    • Teleporters located in each wing of the Watchtower and Hall of Doom
    • Teleporter Amenities within personal bases, assuming you have one of the Generator Mods that add League Halls as a destination
    Features
    The League Hall comes with many built-in features. Only Statuaries must be unlocked to use at all.
    • Statuaries - Statues of League members based on selected rankings
    • Power Core - Powers Proficiencies, bonuses that apply to the entire league
    • League Bank - Bank space shared by the entire League
    • Donation Box - Allows you to exchange items for Prestige
    • Mailbox
    • R&D Station
    • Sparring Targets (of which many are spread out as individuals, but there are also two groups of three together)
    • Awesome view of the Earth from the moon

    Will leagues be able to grant access to allied leagues? In the case of leagues that have a branch for either faction, like an Oblivion Bar type hangout.

    THERE'S the creativity I expect to see from the team.

    I've read every post. I am impressed. It sounds absolutely incredible. Even the locations. Everything. Love it. Love you, devs <3

    I have a request/suggestion. Would it be possible for you to merge the old, discontinued Renown currency with Prestige? Getting sick of seeing "Renown" in my currency tab.

    Good work, sounds cool.

    When I suggested a giant Greenman statue a few years back when the dev discussion thread was put on the old forums, I never actually thought you guys would take me seriously.
