Syncaine's Hardcore Casual takes a look about the "highs and lows" of RvR in WAR, and whether or not the recipe that Mythic has created for their flagship system is currently working. What challenges lie ahead for Mythic in the next few months for RvR? You'll have to read to find out.

Zeathy from Bred for WAR has got a really neat event happening on March 1st on the Phoenix Throne server. You can find out about the lore-focused "Rise of the Everchosen" event hosted by the Acolytes, a contest of riddles that includes some really great prizes, including Warhammer Online game cards. Be sure to take a look.

OstelitTh of Tooth Skinner travels to "County QQ", where he discusses the pitfalls of catering to a casual playerbase with lots of demands. Should WAR, and therefore Mythic, be looking to follow the same path in the quest to retrieve subscribers from its initial launch? Check out the author's opinion to see his thoughts:

About the WAR Community Promotion Initiative

The WAR Community Promotion Initiative, or WCPI for short, is a player-wide effort for WAR fansites, blogs, forums, and other WAR community efforts to cross-promote and expose content to everyone who visits them. Members of the WCPI regularly promote each other on a regular basis through links, spotlights, and other features. If you have a WAR site and you'd like to join, check out the WCPI thread or PM PhoenixRed on the forums.
