Guild Wars: Design a Weapon Contest

It was announced today at the official site that a new contest has started. The contest is asking for any representation of weaponry for inclusion in the game. Entries must be submitted via snail mail and have to be received by March 30, 2007:

Players love new and special items, and we love including players in the creation of those items! We'd like to invite you to participate in our Guild Wars Design-A-Weapon Contest, where you have an opportunity to submit your vision of a cool new weapon and to possibly see it become a permanent part of Guild Wars.

We are looking for creative and appealing new designs for all sorts of weapons: swords, axes, bows, hammers, spears, rods, wands, scythes, staves, and daggers. Not to be forgotten are the shields and focus items that are also used in combat. You may draw your design inspiration from any of the regions: Tyria, Cantha, or Elona.

To enter the contest, simply send us a drawing, sketch, or printed image of an original new weapon, shield, or focus item and submit it to us for judging. The prize? Up to twenty of the best designs will be placed permanently into the Guild Wars world, and the designers of these weapons will win website recognition and Guild Wars goodies, too!
