How many EN servers are being merged into the 4 we have?
All non war and non global servers opend on 09.02.2024 or before
Will the miracles be random or will they be similar to old style where forge is sulphur only etc.
All new servers will have the current world map all new servers having.
If you currently have a crystal booster and move your town to a marble island, the booster will turn into a marble booster.
We need a lot more info about how this merger will be handled. Things that come to mind are
- Donated resources?
- Refunds for premium building locations?
- How do we get dropped into the new world?
- Do we get free move tokens to allow us to move our towns around?
- Will there be a period when fighting can not take place and if so for how long.?
- What will happen to builds that are in progress during the move?
I can answer some but not all.

- Donated resources get credited back as inventory items for you to redonate.
- you will be credited a premium location spot in inventory if you have a premium spot.
- You will get a town relocation for each town you have. Your choice to use or not.

No
Is it possible to go to a different community than that of your origin server during the merges?
E.g. from .it to .en?
.it has their merge earlier than .en, so the knowledge of this beforehand would certainly be sweet.
Obviously the user on .it would have to wait for the merge to launch on .en as the target servers are not open beforehand.
Apparently, it's any server that's greater than 164 days old.
https://www.wolframalpha.com/input?i=days+since+2%2F9%2F2024
For a list of en:
Alpha
Beta
Pi
Zelos
Zephyros
Herakles
Hydra
Orpheus
Kerberos
Hera
Aeneas
Adonis
Eurydike
Kreon
Is this correct?

No
my bad. I thought if you move a town to a different island resource boosters and reducers change to their resource.
What will happen to inactive accounts that are waiting too get too the gravyard server?
Will all the inactive accounts be dropped too the gravyard server on 12.08 or will they remain on current server unntil the end of merge, also at 28.08 for EN servers.
will be a new server instead of merging with an existing one, for example alpha ?
Can i choose too transfer my account too a pangaia server instead of a new server?
will place this comment to follow the thread on my notifications

Merging 5 months old servers with older servers speaks volumes about the money grab those servers are and how little gameforge cares about them, you open them for the money and have 0 purpose for them; one of the greediest game companies i have ever seen. Also a wild guess after the merge: you will still open a new server every month.
You allowed people to let their multis to go to the graveyard to spam regaining donation wood and you made that seem like a "feature" because of course you were not capable to fix anything, and now you deny everyone's chance to keep the progress of that "feature" by creating a new server instead of merging with the existing ones as it happened in the past. That was a very big and unfair advantage, but you allowed it and is your fault for not taking measures timely.
Why exactly you give server bonuses if i come from a server that had none before, if i wanted a faster pace i would have joined the new servers. Why deny my progression by changing the pace of old servers? of course, as time goes by there should be means of faster ways of progression, but this is pure laziness to just give older servers a server boost.
For me this merge is pure garbage and gameforge gives 0 lucks about its player base, they just want to reduce costs after creating ghost servers, that were never ment to develop, just to be milked. I don't even want the server boost, i want to remain on my classic server.
Are alpha and beta EN servers (s1-en, s2-en) classed as global and therefore will not merge?
If they do merge, it looks like I will want to merge both my accounts to the same new server. Both accounts are registered to the same name and email address so what do I need to do to prepare?

No, alpha.en and beta.en are not classed as global. Why on earth would they be?
Global servers are Pangaia servers.
In the event you want both of your accounts on the same server, you set up an IP-sharing agreement between them in-game.
As for my own question earlier on the thread;
Is it possible to go to a different community than that of your origin server during the merges?
E.g. from .it to .en?
Lagu confirmed on discord that this is not possible and you only merge to the same community.
FYI for anyone not keeping tabs discord-side.

Ikariam, and any other mobile game with microtransactions, has always been about being a money grab.
I imagine the server consolidation is more about how ambro is selling less so they need to consolidate the servers to increase competition.
I'm on a new server and without trying I'm in the top 50. Why? Because I simply didn't stop playing the game while everyone else did.
Is Alpha an EN or an US server ?
When I am on the login screen it seems to be an US server ?!?!
Edit : seems we will get Hydra & Sirens update followed after some time by a server merger. Might become confusing

There are Alpha us & Alpha EN servers. When you are on your game screen look at the URL. The english will be EN.ikariam

I don't consider this a money grab game. It is very much still available and usable for the free to play. Many mobile games on phones and stuff are not designed for free to play and really have no chance of playing without spending a hundred dollars a month minimum if not more. Gameforge can't run the game for free unfortunately and they need to do something in order to increase competition which is why they do the server merges.
