What is Headhunting?

In every area, players may run into free-spirit NPCs without ties to any nation. Such NPCs are known as "freelances." On such encounters you may be able to recruit these characters, enlisting them to temporarily serve the efforts of the Allied Forces. Freelances recruited in such a manner will not only participate directly in combat, but will also come to have an influence on the armies and countries which they serve under, and may even form their own ranks to lead in battle.

How does Headhunting work?

Each Freelance has different requirements in order to convince them to join your nation in Campaign battles. Each time the requirement is met, that nation will gain influence over the Freelance. At each week's campaign tally, each Freelance may ally with the nation who has recorded the most influence that week. Often you are required to zone before repeating the requirement to increase influence.
