Icereach is as lag free as it's always been. The vet campaigns are vastly improved

Hey there! Yeah, icereach is usually pretty low low pop, though there are still good fights to be had. I'm most consistently in there on Friday nights (9pm to midnight EDT) and there is usually at least one other guild group running on either DC or AD. AA will still pop in from time to time with their 40 man zergs. This past Friday we started off fighting AA, then near the end an equal to larger size DC group logged in, so pretty good fights the entire time we were there.

I couldn't stay very long. I crave action faster than Icereach can provide anymore.
Battlegrounds are still alot of fun, u50 is quite poppin.

Yeah, I always do BGs with vets. Icereach had been pretty fun this event, though I've been in blackreach much more.

I kinda miss all the fun from our BwB days. So many cool people gone or no longer in contact. It sucks

Not all of us left, but all the cool ones did...

Hmmmm.... what is the topic? Night capping? Zerging? Faction imbalance? It's an important question...

Seems that way.... :'(

Necro rez!

Do you want to party like it's 2017? Do you miss Blackwater Blade? Then read on!

After 2 weeks of input from over 20 sources including Guilds, Groups, and Individuals from every alliance, a day for tri-faction fun has been decided upon:

Weekly u50 wargames will be held on :

WARGAMES WEDNESDAY at 6pm (pst).

If all participants whether they be a guild, a group, or individuals conduct themselves in a sportsmanlike manner the Wargames can grow and progress. If successful, special events may include:

Bridge Wars
Milegate Mayhem
Outpost Defense
Hostage Rescues

Have Fun be Fair!

I will! I appointed myself the official official forum ambassador for this project!

Did you get my in-game request?

In light of our AD representatives being unavailable until Thursday, and also this week's date being at dinner time in the States on Valentine's Day evening, we are postponing this week's official event. Now, don't let that stop you from running in Icereach as you'd like but we are taking this opportunity to announce our intentions to start off our event the following week, not today, with a group photo on Alessia Bridge to kick off a classic Bridge Wars. After we get a chance to talk to our AD guildmaster on Thursday we'll reassess when we can catch the leadership of all three guilds bringing teams in to make this happen and announce a proper time for a group photo on the bridge!

As one of the AD representatives... Can I ask why was I thrown out of the tri-faction discord? I understand that both DC and EP were having a rough night in Icereach on Valentine's Day because my guild (Aetherian Avengers) decided to show up, but that is no reason to send me a nasty Discord whisper and then boot me from the server the very next day.

This is the message that I received.

"hope y'all had fun zerging the lowbie map on Valentine's day instead of spending it with your loved ones! I knew uninviting y'all would get y'all to show up [snip] looks like we've got our AD representatives moving forward after all 🤣"

I suspect that the person who sent me the whisper was the person responsible for kicking me from the server. There is a history between this person and myself from the last tri-faction event that was dealt with in such a disrespectful way.

So far this event has been a huge disappointment. We were invited to join this event, but now we have become "uninvited"? How does that work?

[edited for profanity bypass]

Ahhh.... that's the thread I remember. Also, I remember the days when complete strangers would bend the knee to me because I was good at PvDooring the lowbie campaign in a 10 year old game. Wait....

Feel free to message or add @Moon'Sugar in game, or moonsnull in discord, for an invitation to the new u50 Tri-Faction Events discord page. We are considering hosting an event that's more in-line with the Pacific timezones too in order to encourage a little more activity in the lowbies campaign from those who might not be able to make it out to the Wednesday night timeslots!

Long term our goals are to be able to even invite a ZoS staff member to witness all the factions coming together and celebrating the game we all love to play, so remember if it's against the ToS let's keep it out of the public chat. All are welcome, we presently have DC Rebels representing the blue side of things, Disenfranchised representing the red side of things, and seemingly AA trying to represent yellow side even after publicly claiming they cannot make it out on that day so look forward to lots of fights and excitement from all sides!! (Special shout-out to Den of Dragons for being our first Tri-Faction guild out here doing the work to balance the teams and keep things interesting!)

Really takes me back to years ago during the days of Mulaamnir/Kyne/BWB!! ^_^ Catch you all out in Cyrodiil, gamers!
