Warhammer Alliance Daily News: June 10th

Today was all about the Mythic/GOA online scavenger hunt so please forgive me for deviating from our normal programming.

As a quick summary, the Warhammer team is sending out 10 skulls to various game news sites (5 for EU players and 5 for North American players). These skulls contain cartouches inscribed with heiroglyphs. Translate the cartouches and you will get an unlock code for a fun in-game item (The Scarab Amulet).

Well, that's great and all, but how the heck do you translate the cartouches? Various fan blogs are getting partial decoder packages. Add all the decoder packages together, and you can translate each cartouche. Also important to note is that each cartouche will have 1,000 Scarab Amulet unlocks in it. That's a total of 5,000 unlocks for North American players and 5,000 unlocks for EU players. Once you have translated a cartouche, visit the your account page at https://accounts.eamythic.com to activate it. Those of you in the EU, visit http://www.war-europe.com/#/tombking/.

Below please find a quick listing of what has been reported so far:

Not to be lost in all the excitement is the fact that the Herald has announced a Guild Focus Group program. Mythic is looking for a focus group to give detailed and constructive feedback about experiences in the Lands of the Dead. Guild leaders are asked to fill out an application on and send it in. Deadline is 12PM Noon Easter on Monday, June 15.

Finally, don't forget the PTS event tonight. Log in between 7PM EDT and 12:00 EDT and earn some exclusive in-game items.

"This is something I have to post for all the fans of Warhammer …even though I am not playing Warhammer Online anymore they still have me down as a blogger …so I got a package in the mail with clues to a new expansion. I am to take pictures and upload them to my blog. So here you guys go."

The above is quoted from the "da toughest" blog, all i can say is lol. Good thing he didn't toss it in the trash eh? Be careful if you get on Mythic's mailing list.. once you get on you never get off!
