Molley Named Core Councilor
Molley has been nominated, voted on and promoted to Core Councilor of Circle of Trust.
She has been a Councilor for CoT in the past and did a fantastic job. She's a founding member of this guild, originally a cleric coming from Dark Age of Camelot (Albion/Guinevere). She personifies what it means to be a part of CoT.
Congratulations Molley and thank you!
Ab's Medium Assed Game Review: Rainbow Six Vegas for the 360
So, this game has been out for a while, but it is a great game. The single player is intense, and often brutal difficulty wise, but a ton of fun. I have played just a tad of the multiplayer, but it is a fun experience. Not a typical run and gun shooter, it requires a lot of patience. If any of you have this for the 360 and play online, add me as a friend! Gamertag: Debacle

Eternal War Guild Coalition for Warhammer: Age of Reckoning
The official "Order or Destruction" convesation has begun!
You'll find it in the guild area of the board. Feel free to debate, converse, beg, plead, and discuss the issue. I won't request a firm decision until after the elf classes have been announced - so you have about 4 months. I would like to make a solid decision at that time, though so we can begin to make more solid connections with the guilds we'll be playing with.
Storm Alliance - p076.ezboard.com/bthestormalliance
I did update the old Storm Alliance boards with a fresh new look, but I'm not sure if we'll ever be using them. Some of the CotNS folks talk about WAR but they are really unsure if they're going to create a CotNS in WAR because of the separation of US and EU players. They're not really CotNS without Kess. Seekers of Truth seem to have enough interested, including leaders, so that's a good sign. I'll try and keep in good communications with them as we go along with release coordination plans.
I have e-mailed and/or posted on forums of every single guild on Albion/Guinevere that I could remember and who still has valid contact information. Sadly, it wasn't that many... but results were good. Either no one replied at all, or I actually received thank-yous for letting them know about coordination efforts. There wasn't a single "go jump in a lake lady!" reply. Now, as to whether or not they check out Only-WAR and keep up with plans or not is something I cannot do for them. I think I have done all I can without being too pushy.

Interesting...but long....the murder scenes made me cringe!
WAR NEWS
Spring is in the air - is beta?
According to the tentative schedule, we can look forward to hearing about some community members getting beta soon:
Beta 2: Still closed and covered under NDA, invitees include prize winners, guilds that win the guild contest, and some members of the print and web media - usually the ones we have relationships with. People who work at GW retail shops are getting in here, and we've got some plans for existing Dark Age of Camelot players to be invited to check out their new sibling. There will be up to a thousand people by the end of Beta 2. STARTS: TENTATIVE DATE: Early Spring 2007
Release Date Rumor
There's a rumor on the release date: 12/03/07
I have no idea how credible it is. The claim is that it's the official date EA Mythic gave to Gamestop. Remember, even if the rumor is true, release dates are carved in pudding.
Only-WAR Editorial - Part 3
Part 3 of the Only-WAR Editorial is out for your enjoyment: www.only-war.com/Editorials/WAReditorial3.html
These editorials are great reads and they'll answer any question you have, if the information is known.

CoT Site Updates : www.circleoftrust.org
Links page updated - Alot of the sites that were on there before are already dead links, and there were a few new ones so I had some cleaning up to do. The two "coming soon" websites still aren't up and running so I'm not adding them until they are.
New Orcs - I took the Only-WAR orcs & some regular smileys and combo'd them to make new orcs, for your emoticon pleasure.
Open the Vault - A small CoT Easter Egg for you, just in time for Easter! If you check out the Screenshots page, click on DAoC, scroll all the way to the bottom, you'll notice a PreCoT vault image. Click on it and you'll see our old collection of Friends and Followers screenshots.
