WAR Producer's December Letter

Warhammer Online's new producer, Bruce Maclean, has penned this month's letter which reflects on the past year and gives a forward look to 2010. Check out a snip!

Hail!

Everyone here at Mythic would like to wish you a wonderful holiday season, filled with the things that make this time of year extra special - and by special we mean the taste of beer, the sounds of battle, and the sight of your enemies weeping on the forums!

That's right, Keg End is upon us once again, and whether you are a grizzled veteran, a raw recruit, or someone who has been following the action from the sidelines, there has never been a better time to play WAR. Before we head off to battle seeking our own personal keg-toting servant to help us ring in the New Year, take a seat and share some brew with this grizzled old veteran for a moment as we reflect on the year now behind us.

It truly is the Age of Reckoning and the past year has been filled with amazing Live Events, awesome new dungeons, scenarios, and new zones, with grim new foes and fantastic rewards to earn. We have survived the Night of Murder and seen the arrival of the bitterest of rivals, the Slayer and the Choppa. We have seen the portents and events surrounding the Rise of the Tomb Kings and the expedition to the Land of the Dead. We have witnessed the Demon Moon Rising, and partaken in the ancient and challenging Wild Hunt.

In the past year, the Realm versus Realm war has also seen significant action and change: Zone Domination, the Keep Upgrade Ordnance systems, RvR Quartermasters, two-ramp Keeps, City Invasion improvements, a Keep Rating System, the WAR Report, and the recent Realm Underdog System. Countless other changes too numerous to cover have also elevated the RvR experience from good to incredible, not the least of which are significant performance and stability gains.

A toast for stability!
