Warhammer Tier 4 Campaign Changes
DateTime:7/8/2009 5:21:12 PM

The epic battle between the forces of Order and Destruction rages on across the lands. Dark Elf against High Elf, Dwarfs pitted against their age old enemy the Greenskins, and the upstart Humans of Order wage a bitter battle against the Forces of Chaos. Players on the Phoenix Throne, Dark Crag, Vortex, and Darklands servers will immediately notice a change to the way that the Tier 4 Racial Pairing Fortress sieges function. We will be implementing a hard cap on the total number of players that are able to occupy the Fortress area during a siege. The purpose of this change is twofold: to improve server stability, and allow even more players to participate in, and benefit from, capital city sieges.

Sometimes epic warfare is halted by the powerful forces of server instability. We will be implementing more improvements in the coming weeks however this initial change will allow more players to experience the Tier 4 campaign to its fullest. When the Fortress population reaches certain population thresholds, players who are attempting to enter the area of the besieged Warhammer Fortress that are Rank 35 and below will be teleported to the warcamp for the region they are in. The final population threshold applies to players that are Rank 39 and below. Once the total population cap has been met for the area surrounding the Fortress, all players that attempt to enter the area will be teleported back to the region’s warcamp.
