Bastion Lords is a Web3 powered web-based game powered by the Ethereum blockchain, where every aspect of the game is either an ERC-721, ERC-1155 or ERC-20 Token - they can be traded with other players, or sold on the open market.

Players can collect a wide variety of assets, from playable [heroes](https://paper.bastionlords.com/nfts/heroes "mention"), upgradable land [tiles](https://paper.bastionlords.com/nfts/tiles "mention"), and even [gold](https://paper.bastionlords.com/tokens/gold "mention") and [resources](https://paper.bastionlords.com/tokens/resources "mention")! Players are directly in control of creating (minting) resources in the game, which can used to upgrade nearly every aspect of the game or selling to other players so they can do so as well.

The games native utility token/currency is [gold](https://paper.bastionlords.com/tokens/gold "mention"), which is a highly valued stable coin pegged to ETH! - this is used for almost all game actions and including buying the various Resource tokens that also exist within the game from within the games market, gas free.

​Please look through this Whitepaper in great detail to learn more about our game, it's [roadmap](https://paper.bastionlords.com/roadmap "mention") and even our [mission-statement](https://paper.bastionlords.com/mission-statement "mention")
