A new update has been released for Uncharted Waters Online, which introduces a new chapter to the Seven Wonders saga. Chapter 3.1: Espada starts with a large gathering of enemy forces preparing to attack allied territories, and the most heroic of Captains is asked to mount a desperate defense.
The chapter title is Espada, meaning “sword” in Spanish. It brings a major addition to the Grande Ganador Missions, introduced back in Seven Wonders: Chapter 2.5. Already considered as a challenge for battle enthusiasts, the new Grande Ganador: Boss Rush missions need even more heroic efforts and cohesive tactics to overcome.
Grande Ganador: Boss Rush
Speaking of the Grande Ganadors, their ranks have increased. This is all due to the inrush of Pirates and Soldiers joining their campaign of conquest. The new missions are in the form of a “Boss Rush,” where players take on the Grande Ganadors’ newly-recruited subordinates, whose power is now considered on par with the Grande Ganadors themselves.
To give players a chance to overcome the threat, powered-up Flamethrowers and Autocannons are available for crafting at the Command Center. Of course, players need to first obtain the required items from the Ganadors.
New Jobs
In addition to a new chapter, players also get access to new jobs. In particular, Galley Captains have new job prospects, which excel at rowing:
- Viking
- Aggressive tribes who hail from Northern Europe excel at Battle and Trade.
- Vikings are the only Adventure Job who have Rowing as a Favored Skill.
- Capitano
- Merchants who command Galley Trade Ship Fleets, carrying expensive and light-weight goods.
- The Capitano is the only Trade Job who possesses Rowing as an Expert Skill.

- Increased Criticals
- Preemptive Strikes
