Overview
- Cradle of War is live as the first chapter of the Theatres of War trilogy and sets a new, structured framework for empire conflict in EVE Online.
- The Military Campaigns system aggregates individual player actions into faction-level goals that can change infrastructure and stargate connections across New Eden.
- Exordium Starter Space is a PvP-free onboarding region that lets new pilots learn, meet mentors, and complete starter-friendly campaign objectives before entering open conflict.
- The expansion adds eight new ships: four Tech II Command Carriers for capital-scale fleet support and four Navy Destroyers aimed at faster, lower-cost roles in PvE, PvP, and Factional Warfare.
- New tracking and social tools — the Theatres of War Dashboard plus Titles and Achievements — and the Visions of Greatness Epic Arc give players clearer progress, reputation, and narrative hooks as CCP rolls out further campaign content.
