Why I Want to Go- The War of Shadows

The War of Shadows: Disciple Chooses You!
October 14, 2011 (Friday 6pm) - October 16, 2011 (Sunday 5pm)

A war! You can't go wrong with a war. From the way things are shaping up this is going to be a doosy of war as well! There will be a large map for coordinating troops, rules for armies and npc troops, morale, reinforcements, trappings, and just about everything a person could imagine would happen in a war setting. Unlike the typical Realms "war", which is usually just a bunch of backstabbing, this looks to be one where honor, chivalry and fighting skill will be on the showcase. If you've been yearning for the epic feel of a grand war, this is it!

[As a side note: This event does not require any special foreknowledge or actions to participate in the war and fighting. Anyone can show up to the event and fight in the war.]

It is extremely recommended that if you are interested in the mechanics of the war, and you really should be, check out the supplemental informational website at http://www.rhiassa.com/questing/wos/overview.htm. There is a lot of important information there for everyone, even if you are not leading the armies and just showing up to fight in some epic battles.
