Heroes

Heroes are a feature introduced in Round 32, giving a small but scaling passive bonus to a Dominion. No resources are required to generate one, though a small investment is required to start gaining a benefit.

Types, Experience, and Scaling

There are seven types of Heroes in the game. Each type grants a different bonus, aimed at improving different aspects of a Dominion. They gain experience through taking Info Ops or Black Ops, but not Theft Ops, as well as through invading other Dominions. Experience is lost when being invaded, though Heroes can never lose a level in this way.
