In the new Emergency Underground Missions of the Capital mechanic, when a player locks down their capital city, they still retain the ability to send resources to neighboring cities through hidden tunnels. However, as a penalty for the lockdown, only 30% of all available merchants, explorers, and visionary can be dispatched on these emergency missions. For example, out of 100 total merchants, only 30 will be able to escape the capital to deliver resources. This limitation applies exclusively to the three unit types: merchants, ruin-seekers, and seers.
In future updates, the percentage can be increased by +5% per upgrade level, up to a maximum of 50% efficiency. The cost of unlocking Level 1 is 500 BG. To make gameplay more engaging, players can complete 1–3 themed quests related to clearing tunnels, bribing guards, or decoding ancient underground maps. This system adds strategic tension and rewards smart planning during emergencies.
