On top, all quests are repeatable, that's where the colour system come in. Bronze quests are quests that have not yet been completed. They will generally tend to be around your level. A silver quest will be 5 levels higher that the original quest level, and offer more EXP and Loot. Gold are 10 levels higher, and platinum 15. With an abundant amount of quests already available, and new quests added weekly, this part of the game alone offers a solid singer player RTS experience (totally free!) and to put a little icing on the proverbial cake, you can bring a friend along for any of the quests too, providing a much more entertaining experience and extra help whenever you need it, just be prepared to share your loot.

Although you'll be spending the vast majority of your first few days playing SAGA inside the Quest Instances, outside in the 'real world' is where the real fun is to be had. Setting up your base, managing your resources and townspeople is a long but very rewarding experience. Although it takes a while to get the ball rolling, in only a few days you'll start to have your little base looking much more like a large city, and you'll be looking to expand your nation and build new ones. In your town you'll find things like the Pigeon Roost, used to send in-game 'emails' to other players, the Market (Only available to paying customers) used to trade cards, resources and items with other players, Farms, Storehouses, Gold Mines, Lumber Mills and everything else you'd expect to find in a good RTS game.

PvP is where the real innovation of SAGA comes into play. In total, there are four modes of PvP. They are:

Battle - Battles are small 2-4 player games involving standard RTS style skirmishes. Simply destroy the enemies base, or all of their troops, to knock them out of the game. There are 3 different options involved in Battles, Scrimmage is a battle purely for fun, with no penalties or gains. Normal allows you to lose troops and gain experience, and Hardcore allows the pillaging and destruction of buildings, have severe repercussions for the loser, but massive gains for the winner. *Note* When I was asking in help for some more information on PvP Battles, a GM not only gave me all the information required, but created a game for the both of us, so that he could show me in action. I've already mentioned that the help system in this game is second to none, but this was truly amazing.
