Kingdoms at War Home
The Kingdoms at War homepage is the page that pops up when you open the Kingdoms at War App. It has lots of information and buttons on it, and I'm going to explain what each of them lead to and talk about.
The Top Bar- The Top Bar contains a lot of information. It has the number of soldiers you have out of your max amount of soldiers, the number of spies you have out of your max amount of spies, and the amount of time until your next regeneration. It also has how much gold you have, how many Nobility Points you have, how many allies you have, and lastly, it has how many Buildings you have.
Invite Friends- The Invite Friends button is the red button underneath your flag. Here you can add a referral code or learn what your referral code is. If you enter a referral code, or if someone enters yours, you each get 1 nobility point and 1 health crystal. You can only enter 1 code, and only on an iPod.
Battle- The Battle button is the top button to the right of your flag. Here you can search a player, attack a player, steal from a player, or view a player's profile.
Quests- The Quests Button is the button second from the top to the right of your flag. Here you can do quests. Also, you may recieve a bonus for "mastering" a quest which is basically doing 1 quest succesfully a certain amount of times. There is also a small chance of getting a nobility point or health crystal from succesfully doing quest.

In your Profile, you can look at your wall, what items you have, how much you cost, your stats, and your achievements (view achievements section for more information).
