In the Verdant Court, staff decided that the first interview would have to go to Jomungur! As an intelligent and active member of our community, he has helped numerous people out with his knowledge. In the online world he is respected for his skill and personality!
It's a very interesting and long read, as it covers the history from AoW-1 until AoW-shadow Magic! It delves deep into strategy and online gaming!

You can read all about it here, in our brand new interview section!
Enjoy!


If you wish, you can discuss the article here!

(it will be up in the AoW1 website tomorrow)

Lennart Lurks

Oh joyous day! Well, perhaps not so significant, but Triumph Systems' Lennart Sas made one of his infrequent appearances on the boards (57 total in nearly four years) today. For those newwer agers who don't know him. Lennart is theTriumph Director and Designer of all three games in the AoW series. While he didn't say much, merely clarifying a point about the timeline in the games and nothing at all about forthcoming projects, the fact that he posted at all should give reason to cheer as it shows our beloved Devs are still out there, lurking and listening. And maybe, just maybe, it means they've gotten to a point in their busy schedules where they now can take the time to drop by and say hello.

It’s tournament time at the Battlefield!

Horza666 has started several play by email (pbem) tournaments right here!!


If you like the fast satisfaction of online victories, Lord Kolusar has started something unique (as far as I know): the clan wars! Sign up here!! You can fight those epic battles next to your courageous clanmates!

Congrats to our very own Jamie that won last years Shadow magic ladder at the Battlefield! An impressive achievement! Big compliments to Lord Kolusar and Blackcat that were very close behind!
