I have simply compiled the information into a small list for you to understand.

Written by Warden Flamewater, of Straya

The New Campaign - General

• We finally leave Aelion for the first time, it appears. Introduction to a new planet called Elyon in the "New Era" / "Ascension" update for Skyforge. - Source: RU Portal, 9/1/2016
• Unlocking new classes requires you to now progress to a Class Temple, found on each region/planet. All classes are now unlocked and developed through Class Temple quests and missions. - Source: NA Portal, 9/9/2016
• Archer Class unlock is found at the Marksman Temple. (Source: NA Portal, 9/9/2016)
• Every region in a regional map features the same activities most Skyforge players are used to. (Source: NA Portal, 9/9/2016)
• The Capital is the new method of accessing many interfaces such as the New Order, and the New Inventory system. (Source: NA Portal, 9/9/2016)
• The Temple of Deeds is where to go for Divine Specializations. According to the NA portal, they will write this in detail, but I will translate what I found from the RU portal in the Divine Specializations section found in a future part of the notes.
• The Cathedral replaces Equipment Boosters (the things you used to use Enhancement Stones on.)
• There is no more caps on ANYTHING in Skyforge! Play all you want... says the game developers.

The New Campaign - Invasions (Part 1 - General)

NOTE: All information listed here comes from a mixture of the NA portal and RU portal.

• Invasions now last 8 weeks (2 months long). 
• Distortions no longer are bound to Pantheons, as long as you qualify for it, they are now usable for everyone to join.
• Trophy Hall is where items you purchased with Victor Medals will be found. 
• Flavius's Laboratory no longer requires a Pantheon. Also, it appears Eidoses were removed. Instead, you receive a new "special currency" every 2 days that allows advancement of a specific army during an active invasion army.

Equipment Panel 

Now will be found on the Ascension: Quick Notes V in bigger detail.

Pantheon Changes

NOTE: This was just posted yesterday.

Translate it yourself: https://portal.sf.mail.ru/comments/57d2d2af11d23fa00b9d789a

• Obelisk of Luck/Valor/Spirit/Strength have been removed. Any Victor Medals spent on upgrading your personal rank will be refunded Victor Medals.
• Pantheon Upgrades completely simplified - No longer do commanders need to constantly upgrade all other buildings. There is just one upgrade and that appears to cost a mix of Victor Medals and Credits.
• Any resources spent before "New Era" / "Ascension" will be converted over to the new system of Pantheon Rank Upgrades.
• Pantheon Rank Upgrades: Increases the personal boost of everyone (up to 10% max health and damage), increases the population count of the Pantheon, and more abilities.
• Rank Upgrades give you access to things such as the Emblem Editor, which was locked behind a different structure of the Pantheon previously.
• Power appears to be removed from the Pantheon panels.
• The maximum Pantheon Rank is 20. At 20, you gain access to all features normally locked by buildings pre-Ascension, and also gives you a population cap of 290 in the Pantheon. (260 normal members, 30 academy members).
• It seems that chats of Pantheons are all merged together now. (this is not confirmed or made clear by RU devs, this is a speculation) I guess the intent of this is to focus people in the Academy to communicate with the regular members of a Pantheon. I'm not 100% sure if this includes Commander chat.
