Service status
Checking the online service…
Games connect to wss://games.tachyon-ai.eu/play, a single server in Paris. Rooms have two seats; match rooms expire after 15 minutes without both players and Shardbound campaign rooms after 7 days.

If something goes wrong
| What you see | What to do |
|---|---|
| Cannot reach the online server | Check your internet connection and this page. If the dot above is red, the service is down; offline play still works. |
| Update your game client | Your version is no longer compatible. Install the current release from the game page; saves are kept. |
| Room not found for this game | The code was mistyped or the room expired. Ask for a fresh invite link. |
| Both seats are claimed | Use Rejoin last room on the computer that originally joined instead of entering the code again. |
| The server is full | Capacity is limited while the service is small (32 rooms). Wait a few minutes and create the room again. |
Capacity
The service holds up to 32 rooms and admits four new rooms per minute from one address. A bounded check on 2026-09-08 ran four simultaneous Warband matches for 90 seconds with orders from all eight seats: the simulation held 19.4 to 19.6 ticks per second against its 20 Hz target, state updates arrived every 98 ms at the median and 124 ms at the 95th percentile, and the health endpoint answered within 91 to 170 ms from Western Europe. Two Tribes rooms and Shardbound co-op rooms were checked the same way. This describes a small friendly load, not a capacity guarantee.
Data and retention
The service stores each room's game state and two private seat tokens until the room expires, then deletes them. Ranked Warband profiles retain public names, player IDs, ratings and win/loss records. Aggregate per-game connection counts and timestamps are retained for thirty days. Logs keep connection errors for a short time. Downloads are served from GitHub releases and this site.
