Why do you play?I played since year 2009. Come across this game and Battlemaster home page look interesting and enticing.
Started in Alebad fallen realm region, thought I joined Alebad realm but later found out they are dead realm yet to be cleanup by the game. Oritolon not my first choice

Another reason is Bedwyr points out below. Very few games allow you to shape the game world history through player actions and inactions.
Because there are damn few games where you can rewrite how the entire game world works in a freeform way, despite your character not being intrinsically more powerful than any other.
What do you get out of BattleMaster?Learning how different government systems working and setup.
Learning how battles can be win or lose.
Last but not least, make new friends and learning to trust each other come rain or shine in Battlemaster
What do you put into it?In the earlier days, I pour my emotions whether happy, sad or angry through characters interactions with other characters.
Happy when won the battles, wars, region lordships, rulership, judgeship, rebellion success and so on.
Despairs when the realm lost battle, I even had a character lost a realm(Fontan).
Puzzled and confused due to my first character started in a dead realm.
Feeling outcast when knowing nobody in the realms first started but gradually start to understand the game mechanic, and thus learning more and understand other characters.
Sometime I become Sun Tzu, mastering the Art of War strategies and planning

You can find lot of different characters in the game, some co-operatives, some unco-operatives, some loud talking, some complaining without offering any solutions, some who know what must be done and some quiets who at sidelines but will become Rebels when you least expected them
