News from the Front: Fear the Chickens

This week, WAR saw a bit of downtime due to ISP troubles and a new Hot-fix.  I didn't have much time to play because of RL happenings and work on the Arsenal of WAR.  I did get to group up with some guildies and take advantage of Against All Odds.  Some great fights were a result.  What has the rest of the WAR community been up to?

  • ZAM returns to WAR.  The article is a few weeks old, but they seem to be enjoying their return to WAR so far.
  • Gaarawarr posted a guide to this years Wild Hunt live event.  Excellent work as always.  Interesting rewards, including a new Event slot item.
  • Bootae and his guild Kill Frenzy brought forth the Squig Apocalypse! That many Squig Herders will give me nightmares for weeks to come. 
  • The Price of Wargh gets a snazzy new look (that's right, snazzy).  Also he has a few problems with the city PQ loot system.  I can't say I'm a huge fan either.  I really just want to be able to opt out of Gold bags.
  • Skuz has a problem with a recent article by Massively about WAR's upcoming RvR Pack.  Give it to 'em Skuz!
  • Mmmmm Gud wrote up an interesting article about 5 concepts that did not make the live game.  I had not known about some of these, wonder what WAR would be like if everyone had a shot at an instant rez...
Videos
  • The filmmakers at Kill Frenzy put together a great little video about Birds... I mean Chickens.
  • Check out this amazing guitar tribute to Warhammer Online.  I may have to incorporate this into one of my videos...
  • Just two videos today, since they provide more than enough awesomeness.
