Now that you have been divided into four kingdoms, it is time to find out this season's big twist! During Medieval Times, the idea of Feudalism was being established. Feudalism is the idea that all kingdoms have a sort of class system. The kings, queens, and popes are the overall rulers of the land. Directly under them are the dukes and priests. Finally, under them are the peasants and common people.
Over the past 16 seasons, we have had a variety of big twists that have heavily influenced how the game has played out. The Luv Shack, The Bomb Shelter, Tribe Leaders, The Wheel of Fate, Half-Lives, Base Camp, and the dreaded twist of Banishment are just a few of them. This season, the twist will follow the idea of Feudalism and constant battles between kingdoms.
Every round, the four kingdoms will fight in a battle. The battles will test your kingdoms overall strength and ability to work together. The winning kingdom of every battle will be immune from the vote, will not attend the Judgement Ceremony, and will all receive a clue to their kingdom's Golden Shield (Hidden Immunity Idol). They will be considered the rulers of Sicily for the round. The second place tribe will be immune from the vote but they WILL attend the Judgement Ceremony. They will be considered the Dukes of Sicily and will have a say in who leaves that round between the other two kingdoms. The third and fourth place kingdoms will become the peasants of Sicily. They will all go to Judgement where someone from one of those two kingdoms will be removed from the land.
Your social game will be very crucial this season if you want to stay! Because of this twist, communication with ALL kingdoms is permitted.
So many questions to consider with this twist of Feudalism. Will intertribal alliances affect who wins the battles and who goes home? Will feuds cause some kingdoms to fall? Will one kingdom consistently avoid Judgement? Will people target others from their own kingdoms?
All of these questions will be answered over the next 42 days. Start getting to know everyone because the game is on!!
