Land Grab 2008 Warmup The first land grab in two years took place on Calypso earlier today. In a warmup to the main 2008 land grab, two land areas were up for grabs today. With many Entropians taking the day off from work or rushing home early, Amethera witnessed a slaughter, as rival societies battled for the claims. In order to win a land area, a society must claim the land at the land marker and then hold it by keeping at least one member of their society alive within a small region around the marker at all times for four hours. The successful society owns the land for six months, controlling the fertiliser station settings, and receiving tax from hunters and miners using their land. The warmup today was partly a test to check the ability of the servers to cope with the strain of a full land grab battle, which is expected to come later this month. Nevertheless, there were two land areas up for grabs (LA-18 Oculus and Kingfisher, LA-4 Thorios) and the competition for them was fierce. Amethera was lit by a firefight all afternoon, an indication of the PK tally can be seen in the Killing Spree ATH table. Just minutes into the event, Warants claimed and held LA-18, and soon after that Menace To Society were maintaining a vigil at LA-4. Both were challenged by other top societies but, with some alliances clearly having been formed, Warants held off the opposition with the help of some friends in order to win LA-18. They were then freed up to make an attack on M2S's claim at LA-4, but with so little time remaining, Menace To Society held on to win LA-4. Some excellent footage was filmed by khalim16, so here's a taster for the upcoming main land grab event:
Finally, if you're new to Calypso and want to experience an event for yourself, the official Mindark guides (Emma and Simon) are hosting an event for newcomers at 19:00 UTC tomorrow (14th Feb). The meeting point is at Port Atlantis (coords: 5707, 8362) and the event is open to anyone with Agility of 10 or lower. Last edited by Jimmy B; 02-14-2008 at 02:34. |

nice idea. How about more events for various skilled avatars.
Currently most events favor ubers. This ones favors restricts virtually anyone older than a week. How about more events for medium skilled avatars. (and separate the medium skilled avatars. As its impossible for everyone to be Uber at the same time. The only problem I see I see this is that this would be to popular. So maybee make the event invitation only. (add ticket to loot window) you can either go or sell it to someone else who qualifies for event) (it is only lootable to anyone already qualifies for event and it says qualifications in ticket. |

Wassnt it so that a soc could only have one LA?
So Warrants and M2S are now out of the game for the real LandGrab? edit: Quote:
Nice Vid though, and Gratz to the owners PS: Can you alter/change the DNA active in the LA? I wonder if that is where the kingfisher stalkers came from :P I bet you can change the spawn/maturity but cant add/remove DNA Last edited by Henceforth; 02-14-2008 at 00:22. |
