something more to their

clan experience!

The Creative Works De-

partment is always look-

ing for talented newcom-

ers to join our family! It

ence a new and interest-

ful videos and join VAT,

Page 2: The Nation - June 2010

Recruiting drive - Think you

have what it takes? Allods is

looking for new members to

help build the rookie section

into something great within

the confines of Warrior Na-

tion. If RPG-style PVP is your

flavor, then Allods is calling

your name. If you prefer PVM,

there is plenty of monsters

available for the slaying. Al-

lods is a free to download

game, so there's no excuse

for not giving it a shot!

Love potion #9 - WNxTiger

and WNxBabyoxide spiced up

the forums with a captioned

pictorial describing their un-

usual reaction to drinking a

love potion. Disclaimer: Not

for those who are pregnant,

may become pregnant, have

a heart condition, or under

48 inches tall.

Member of the month -

WNxMyuki was presented

with the award of Member of

the month for the month of

May due to his concerted

efforts in raising the section

from development stage to

recently released to a fledg-

ling section. WNxMyuki's

dedication to the Allods sec-

tion has helped it gain more

activity as he leads by his

actions.

guild runs and looking for

section support as well as

potential recruits to join him.

They are still in the planning

stages, so stop by to provide

your input and stick around

to see the success.

Guild Bank - There is a mule

account set up within the

DDO section for those less

fortunate. Several members

have put in countless hours

collecting various items that

may help in your quest for

Released - May was a good

month for Dungeons & Drag-

ons Online as it was released

from development and is well

on its way towards being a

fledgling section in its own

right. WNxCootie has been

appointed as its Grand Mas-

ter with WNxZecrag as his

second in command. Con-

gratulations to both of you

and to the section.

Guild runs forming - WNxThe-

tislongarrow is running some

victory. Stop in to see what's

available before the item you

seek is gone!

Allods Online

Dungeons & Dragons Online

der reset is over, D2 held a

mule dump event in which

everyone participating was

able to relieve their mules of

items they no longer needed

or wanted, and could replace

them with the items of oth-

ers. Due to some miscommu-

nication, only a handful of

people were in attendance;

however the likelihood of

another event such as this is

high.

FO promotion - WNxClydez

has once again taken the

reigns as HGFO for the Diablo

II section. He has held the

position on multiple occa-

sions and seems to find him-

self at home in it. We all know

that he will do well. Congratu-

lations Clay!

Diablo 2

PvP build competition - Some

in-section smack talk began

in a battle between WNxFa-

talDesign and WNxVulture as

to the better PvP. The forum

thread has inspired others to

join in on the competition,

and people are now searching

for their perfect pvp gear. No

date has been set for this

event, but it is sure to be one

of epic proportions.

Mule dump - Now that the

second month after the lad-

Mining Op - WNxKoudo is ar-

ranging a mining op June 1 at

18:00 game time. WNxScotti-

john is going to be recording

the fray on video. All guild

members are invited to attend.

Revenue generated during the

op will be divided amongst its

participants.

Tyrannis delayed - It comes as

no surprise to gamers; the

release of the expansion patch

Tyrannis has been delayed.

There are some inherent scal-

ability issues with the function

of the Planetary Interaction

function which is the primary

feature of Tyrannis. The delay

will be short lived, however as

it is projected to be

released on June 8.

Section's activity - This section has

been rolling smooth. Not super active

nor inactive, a good balance if you

ask me. No new members or leaving

members.

they owe us since one year

ago.

Section's activity - Last month

activity was cool as usual, but

this month it was more an in-

game activity than a forum

activity. Don't take it the

wrong way, the forum is al-

ways active, and the section

is runing a tour which has

nice prizes but is not finished

yet.

Nickname update - The past

month, the game developers

finally did something "good".

They gave us back the

chance to change our nick-

names in game. But the big

BUT is that it's way more

expensive than the old price,

and in my opinion a nick

change doesn't worth about

10 dollars. I wouldn't be sur-

prised that when they bring

us the guild system they'd

make it payable, and the

guild system is something

A new FO captain - One Inter-

esting thing to mention is

that on May the section had a

great promotion, WNxKoma-

tsu has been promoted to

Field Operation Captain, and

the good thing to mention

here is that he was one of the

first majors of the section

and he's still here with us,

and as officer once again.

Some areas will be held in

hard mode, while others will

be done in nm. It takes skill,

patience, and humility to be

able to do something as

crazy as this. Congratulations

to all those that participated.

Medal of Valor awarded -

Guild Wars' resident baddie

hunter WNxDarknyte was

awarded the Medal of Valor

on May 8, 2010. A big con-

gratulations to you and a

bigger thank you for all of

your hard work and dedica-

tion to the Guild Wars sec-

tion.

Guild Wars Series

Boss hunt - Saturday May

29th marked the date that

WNxThrawn gathered to-

gether his merry band of

marauders to hunt down and

kill as many GW bosses pos-

sible. Guild Wars organizes

many events such as this one

so stop in and join one if you

can.

Coed Naked Boss Slaying -

WNxThrawn has proposed a

boss raid with each character

in their underwear only.

are offering a special event

when any UGC is redeemed

for the games you play! To

participate with Rose and

Ragnarok Online, redeem a

UGC through the PaybyCash

link. This will earn you a spe-

cial bonus item in addition to

their normal value.

Game update - A new update

with various improvements

has been brought online.

Here are some tidbits on the

changes : reduced dodge rate

for monsters 1-80, some

requirements for refining

have been lowered, NPC Price

changes for some items and

some icon changes, as well

as other things.

New Server - The Rose Online

section has a new server!

With the new NA server, this

will allow more players to join

in the fun and help extend

recruitment efforts! For more

information, check out the

section’s forum!

Section's activity - The activity

for this section is a little low,

but I heard they are watching

for Neverwinter Nights 2 serv-

ers, so maybe they can come

up with some cool surprise

for us all.

Next month for this section

will be an important month

because... well that is some-

thing you will read in the next

month's issue.

chance to try the world of

Classic!

Runescape Classic is the

original version of RuneScape

as it was six years ago in

2004. This version is not

normally open for new users

to play, and only ‘classic-

enabled’ accounts can play it.

For a limited period only,

Jagex is opening Classic up

to new users again, and giv-

ing users another chance to

Back to the future - Adventur-

ers who have discovered Vitu-

vius's Elemental Workshop

beneath Seers' Village will be

happy to hear that the body

door and the secrets locked

away behind it are now

opened up in Jagex's latest

quest : The Elemental Work-

shop III. Back in November,

Jagex opened RuneScape-

Classic up to members for

two weeks, and said at the

time that they would have

another re-opening in six

The re-opening period is

Free codes for everyone! - To

celebrate Runes of Magic's

release of The Elder King-

doms expansion, the Runes

of Magic team is giving away

free gift codes at bit.ly/

ces1AA. Each code can be

redeemed for one special

experience package, which

will enable Runes of Magic

players (and their friends) to

reach higher levels faster so

that they may experience the

game's newest features and

areas! So hurry and get yours!

Siege Wars - Meanwhile Many of

the guild members have been

burning the midnight oil doing

instances and fighting in the

nightly Siege wars, instances

are being run on an almost

nightly basis. Siege Wars how-

ever has become a nightly

event to which more and more

members are becoming ad-

dicted to. As more players

reach higher levels, and the ins

and outs of SW are learned by

all, other guilds are realizing

that Warrior Nation is a force to

worry about.

Runes of Magic

Game update - This month,

RoM's development team has

added plenty of new features

such as: a new instance

called the Dungeon of Alanis,

a six player instance with

variable difficulty settings,

new skills that are gained

through the gathering of

certain items, hirable NPC's

that can give you buffs, po-

tions, or other bonuses, 100

new quests with a raised level

cap as well as a new level 58

it... Rejoice! For those of you

that didn't... Hehehe...

DUCK!!!

The Night Elf Mohawk is

back! For a limited time, Mr.

T’s Night Elf Mohawk returns

to Azeroth to hand out his

signature grenades while a

new nationally televised com-

mercial takes over the air-

waves.

Also, a reminder about some-

thing very important that's

occurring in the WoW world

at the moment. If many of

you don't know, the Friends

and Family Alpha of Cata-

clysm has been opened up

officially for an extremely

selected few. Certain web-

sites are releasing tons of

information about the next

expansion, but there is a big

catch : the alpha is currently

under a non-disclosure agree-

ment. What this means is that

no one can display screen-

shots or information gath-

ered from the alpha on their

forums.

this month, yet it did not

deter how many people were

joining up in the section. For

serious gamers, the restric-

tions are now at:

PSR 1600+

KD 0.8

CS 80

CD 8

EM% 0%

The Competitive Play team is

now having tryouts for any-

one who thinks they have the

game to play with the best.

Members have been steadily

flowing into this section for

the duration of the month,

yet forum activity seems to

be down due to more people

staying in-game rather than

web-surfing. This may be

because of the several people

that left early on in the

month. Hopefully, the new

people can fill in the sad gap

that has been left.

The requirements to join the

section have changed slightly

In other news, leadership is

working up to get a raffle

going in which a prize is a

copy of the game.

World of Warcraft - Kael’thas

Heroes of Newerth

in a classic 1v1 tournament.

Wins equal three points and

losses equal one.

Also, patch 2.6 is coming for

for the BfME2 section soon.

More details can be found in

the Of Herbs and Stewed

Rabbit section on the forum.

Battle for Middle Earth II

Activity hasn't been bad in

the BFMEII section as of late.

New members have been

showing up as older ones

both seeming a little more

common as we near summer.

Starting this month,

WNxGaleth has started a

tournament series that will

known as The Warg Pit.

Points in the tournament will

be received by attending

Activity rises again in Ikariam

as we say hello to some new

members!

5/12/10, applications for a

new BO captain opened up in

Ikariam and 10 days later on

5/22/10, the promotion was

given to WNxDizzy.

On 5/15/10, member pro-

gress was posted to reveal

the highest point growth

winners are as follows:

Group A: WNxArtaxs

Group B: Marcolious

Group C: WNxNozama

Group D: zerozero00

In addition to this, zeroze-

ro00 gained 12% in rank and

Warrior Nation climbed 3% in

clan rank, which, despite the

small number, is actually

quite a lot! Check the

Ikariam.org - Gamma forum

for more information.

5/24/10 to 5/28/10 and

resulted in the following win-

ners:

Activity in this section's fo-

rum has been dropping very

slightly as of late and only a

few new members have

shown their faces. Still, de-

spite this, the LoL section still

seems to be doing pretty

well.

Many people showed up

when WNxWalrus hosted a

game tournament in which

the prize was a $10 game

card. Results are pending as

people post who won what.

The May Rollcall was solid for

WC3 NA, as they stayed at 31

primaries. This is also the

first time since late 2008 that

WC3 NA have had 2 consecu-

tive rollcall's with 30 or more

primaries.

WNxHydrolysis keeps on

improving, his activity in

game and on the forums,

along with his recruiting

skills are impressive. As

WNxWeeeooo changed to

Royal Guard of the section,

the Recon HG was open and

as decided by the leadership,

WNxHydrolysis was the per-

fect candidate, moving from

his rank to Paladin, to the

new Recon HG of WC3 NA.

The X Hero Siege Tourna-

ment is in the end of the

signing up stage, as the full 8

players have signed up and

been accepted. The Tourna-

ment date is TBD, but it

should be big. The goal is to

get the most kills in one

game of X Hero Siege on

Extreme hard mode. Hope-

fully the date of the tourna-

ment is not too far away and

good luck to all participants.

In the middle of May, WNxMi-

rager caught up with

WNxDobby, a dedicated

Admin of WC3 NA and inter-

viewed him. The interview

looks sweet and as WNxMi-

rager said "there will be more

to come." a small thanks to

WNxWattZ for editing and

reviewing the interview.

Check the forums for the

interview.

Every month, members are

rewarded for their loyalty and

in WC3 NA, this month is no

different. Congratulations to

WNxTinuva and WNxRabid-

Chicken who both have re-

ceived 2 year medal's,

WNxMistressChaos who re-

ceived a 3 year medal and

WNxPureLuck who received

his 5 year medal.

and are looking promising.

Patch 2.2.1 has come out and

the DOW II members like it,

featuring many balanced

this to say about the patch

"actually this little patch is

Leadership change... WNxA-

section will close as majority

of the small section will

move. The guy who could get

the job done is WNxPeter, he

was the section's first Grand

Master way back in December

2002 and has shown himself

again to lead the section and

eventually close it. Being the

first and last GM of WC3 EU.

Rollcall is borderline danger

again, although they im-

proved from April, by getting

1 more primary to make it 18

in May. Hopefully the section

can improve their rollcall

number or keep steady.

Warcraft 3 EU

WNxCominbk2life the GM of

WC3 EU has been recently

demoted after 3 weeks of

inactivity in the forums.

Hopefully another member

can step up to the role as the

section is struggling and

without a GM will be closed.

He who started it shall end it,

as WC3 EU was without a GM,

the Admins decided to put in

charge someone who could

get the job done until July

when SC2 comes out and the

In Trouble - The section is

having trouble with activity, it

seems to have slowed down

to a crawl. WNxWesker and

WNxPinkShadow have come

in to help them out. The Re-

con Black ops team is going

to help bring the section back

to what it was and hopefully

activity is going to go back to

where it once was.

Recruitment - Area 51 is

quite active in recruiting peo-

ple they’ve had about six new

people join the section in the

last month.

Showing Off - They do their

best to provide people with

the screenshots of their

games and what is going on

in the section as well.

Change At The Top - They

have promoted a new Recon

Captain and a new major

after WNxWildo has stepped

down from his position,

WNxcptskip.

Good Start - The section has

had good activity this month

and the in game activity is

good as well. They have a

new server up and running.

The members in the section

have grown fast and are go-

ing to be very successful. The

section is finally out of devel-

opment and has had its first

leadership positions decided.

Renegade section is no

stranger to bringing up the

best members in WNx, it's

always nice to see those

members rewarded,

WNxKenny achieved the

medal of honor, congratula-

tions mate.

Yet Another Promotion - I

am not saying it again... Ok i

will Renegade brings up the

best members because he is

another promotion,

WNxAcatel is now a marshal.

OK, Start From The Top -

Needless to say WNxM3 is a

legend in the making the

renegade section, he was a

major when I joined in Janu-

ary, he became a BO Commis-

sioner not long back, now he

has become a colonel of spe-

cial forces, what I want to

know is who is he paying off,

only joking mate congratula-

tions really well deserved.

Captain Kenny Honoured -

As you have read above the

for new members to fill up

some big spaces left by their

predecessors.

FPS Domination - The COD

4 (PC) section is one of a

kind, no wonder they won in

the FPS challenge. The sec-

tion held 10 game nights in

the month of May, majority

of them being inter clan, with

great attendance at all of

them. Hopefully their game

night fever can continue on

to next month.

Change At The Top - They

have been many changes in

the leadership of COD 4

(PC).WNxJesus, the well

known GM of COD 4 (PC)

stepped down as GM, in or-

der to become a Commis-

sioner of Battle Ops. The

member to replace him was

his second in command,

WNxBeyond. As they was no

longer a HG FO, WNxRe-

dreader was promoted to HG

FO. WNxSilent was also pro-

moted to HG BO and keep

the competitive edge of COD

4 (PC) alive.

New Event - A new event

called the "Castle Siege" was

started a while ago and with

5 teams of 4 participating, it

has been very competitive

and interesting. Currently

'the dutchnabs' are the castle

holders, but other team is

threatening their position. To

read more go the COD 4 (PC)

forums.

Fourth Place - With the rank-

ings of the FPS BO Tourna-

ment has been released this

month and this section has

section has done a lot of

events, and managed to

make it pretty high in the

standings, only losing to

three others and beating out

all the rest.

The Major, WNxSwitchBlade,

made a celebratory speech by

bringing out the drinks and

laughs.

2v2 Handgun Only Tourna-

ment - WNxSilver has

started the 2v2 handgun only

tournament in the section,

which is sure to be a hit.

Many people have registered

for the tournament and the

first round is ready to begin.

Out With The Old, In With

The New... - To put it bluntly

the section has lost three

members this month;

WNxFroggy, WNx0wnd34d

and WNxCartman, but has

recruited five more to replace

them, so welcome WNxJ3ff,

WNxn00bster, WNxSpooner,

WNxveser and WNxSwifty.

There are some new officers

in town... WNxSol1ce has

started to build up his team,

promoting WNxNinja to FO

MP. Good luck to the follow-

ing members and hopefully

they can improve the section.

Still Growing - To say that

Day of Defeat is back on its

feet is a vast understatement.

The section was dangerously

close to being archived only 2

months prior, gained another

5 new primaries and 2 new

secondary this month. When

you consider that there were

only 17 primaries last month

this is an amazing feat. This

means for every 5 primary

members the section had over

2 new members were re-

cruited. Of course it was not

only rollcall that improved this

month, but they also had

many game nights with sev-

eral members attending and it

seems that Day of Defeat is

only going up from here.

It is with a heavy heart that I re-

port the closure of the Dystopia

section. In the last couple

months the section has went

from bad to worse with abso-

lutely no activity. Despite all ef-

forts nothing seemed to work

and it was ultimately decided

that the section was to be closed.

The Dystopia section was

brought into Development on

10/10/2006 and one of the

game champions was Gump, who

was the last Major for the sec-

tion. The largest the section ever

had gotten was in March 2009

with 58 members signing rollcall.

It has been a great ride for the

Dystopia section and it is truly

sad to see it go.

deserved promotion.

Rollcall and Activity - De-

spite a loss of 3 primaries,

bringing Halo to 21 prima-

ries, they are still giving it

everything they have got to

keep the section alive. They

have regular game nights and

are currently in the works for

running a new server. This

section has a lot of great

potential and is a section to

keep an eye out over the next

month.

Officer Promotions - With

WNxJingo stepping down

from Major and leaving the

section as primary, the

Admin support had a serious

decision to make. So

WNxRoses did what any

good Admin would do and

stuck everyone's name on a

Dart board, blindfolded him-

self, and spun around in cir-

cles three times. The name

that came out of all of this

was WNxThorsT3r. In all

serious, let us all give a con-

grats to Thor and his well

Slow Times - It's been a

slow month for this section,

however they've managed to

make out some activity. The

major event that has hap-

pened this month was the

promotion of a new captain.

WNxmustang2u has pro-

moted WNxGanjaMinion for

the new Battle Operations

Captain spot. The thread for

congratulations can be found

here: http://

also have a fun night every

Sunday at 8pm GMT.

The FPS Challenge - So

among many call of duty

sections and several other

retail games where did we

see a free mod like GES place.

Let us look down near the

bottom, but wait it isn't there.

Going up the list of games

you won't find GES until you

reach the 2nd place spot.

Yes, the free mod GES was

only beaten out by Call of

Duty 4. Even United offen-

sive, which came in a close

third, could not catch up with

them. Great job to the GES

section and congrats on the

second place finish.

Golden Eye: Source

Maintaining The Average -

This month, although GES did

not lose any members, they

stayed exactly the same with

54 primaries and gained one

secondary. Despite this, 54

primaries for a free source

mod is quite a feat and we

should expect even more

great things from this sec-

tion. They have kept their

members interested by hav-

ing a game night on every

Saturday at 8pm GMT, usually

consisting of 2 rounds with a

race to 50 each round. They

Activity Crisis - It seems the

sections activity is slowing

down gradually, this month

many game nights have been

arranged as well as polls to

arrange the game night

times. WNxWesker is on to it

along with other section lead-

ers to find out why the sec-

tion is quiet, hopefully the

left will not be Left 4 Dead.

Promotion - Congratulations

research, the section and

myself wish you luck with

your future endeavours.

Screen Shot Contest - The

section started a screen shot

contest this month; with Left

4 Dead being quite an ex-

pressive game in terms of

facial expressions the results

should be good.

Rollcall Results - The TF2

section have a very healthy

number of members this

month, the have 36 primary

and 24 secondary, that a

huge total of 60 members,

well done guys and girls keep

it up.

Hawkeye Steps Down - I am

sorry to start with the bad

news but I have to put it

somewhere so lets get it out

of the way first, WNxHawk-

eye isgoing to hang up his

boots as Captain at the end

of the month.

Update - It seems the TF2

section are waiting on an

update for the game, they go

one but not what they

wanted.

See the updates here: http://

Mass Recruiting - At first

glance of the WR forum I

couldn't seen anything else

but welcome, welcome, wel-

come... Well done guys and

getting so many new mem-

bers.

Rollcall Results - The WR

section is struggling despite

the mass recruiting, they

have 16 primary and 4 secon-

dary, needless to say that is a

total of 20 members, but

they are still a very active

section, well done guys.

Left 4 Dead

Team Fortress 2 War Rock

Screen Shot Contest - Like

other sections the Planetside

section has started a screen

shot contest in hopes of get-

ting the sections activity back

up. They are always fun and

give the members something

different to do and win.

Planetside

Rollcall Results - The Plan-

etside section isn't the big-

gest in WNx but it is still a

very steady section. The sec-

tion has a total member

count of 23 members, 21

primary and 2 secondary.

New Vent Server -

WNxLithiumLT has brought

something new to the atten-

tion of the section, that is

there new vent server, have

fun guys and remember so

Points for Promotions? -

WNxFandango, the Recon

Captain of the section, has

devised a method for increas-

ing activity by implementing

a point system. Basically, for

every event they go to that is

hosted by him, and for every

other set of requirements

they meet, they will gain

points. At the end of rollcall,

they'll be able to qualify for

certain promotions. Each

month the points will add up

until the members reach a

high field rank. So far this

has been going well with 20+

participants.

A Mass Exodus - Not really.

WNxPwnstar4hire left the

section early in the month to

start his own clan, taking a

couple of members with him

(not intentionally of course).

This has setup the leadership

being on edge and their Ma-

jor, WNxDropkikkmarc71,

has taken a course of action

to nullify any great losses.

With everything on edge, they

managed to get into the top

3 of rollcall with 2nd place.

They have proved that no

loss is too big for the section

and have moved on. Good job

to the leadership for acting

responsibly and taking the

right actions to move on from

members leaving.

recruitment for other sec-

tions.

Do you have SKILLZ? -

There Major,

WNxMcCLURE361 has

started to SKILLZ Tourna-

ment, which pits teams of

two against each other. Each

round has it's own specific

rules and limitations. For

example, the first round was

sniping only, which would

allow the players to only use

Another Month At The Top

- While this month saw a

major rise in console mem-

bership and sections in the

top 10, this section was able

to maintain their reign at the

top for another consecutive

month. The game's hype is

still as high as ever, and re-

cruitment has been steady

enough for new people to

join more and more. This

section is showing what con-

sole sections are made of,

and by being at the top of

weapons such as the Barrett

50. Cal and Intervention. This

tournament has been in the

process of moving with

teams determined for the

second round. Good luck to

all participants!

Did you say Double XP? -

The section has been capital-

izing on Double Experience

weekends, by making game

nights in order to boost par-

ticipation in their already

healthy section, as well as

gaining some experience to

level up. Of course, everyone

loves double XP, so this is

sure to be a success in boost-

ing the activity of the section

WNxShifty, got his 50th

lot of people know about

Nukes, but to enlighten those

who don't, they are very diffi-

cult to achieve. It takes going

single round to achieve a

matically. To see that

together quite nicely they

have just found there first BO

Captain they have plans in

the future to get the section

active in game.

Mass Recruits -They have a

event on 29th of May. That

will surely start things off

with recruiting. So far the

section has got 17 recruits in

less than a month.

Info-man - They have

gained a new informative

member WNxOldironsides, he

has been getting information

on the new stuff in the game.

The sections activity has im-

proved a lot.

Section Rivalry - They are

currently in a competition

with the Battlefield (Xbox

360) Section.

Out Of The Pan Into The

Fire - The section its self is

having some trouble, they

are looking for new officers

right now. The Recon Captain

has been promoted to Recon

Black Ops. The in game activ-

ity is up by a lot and so is

forum activity. The Major is

planning to train someone

for a new BO captain. They

have acquired some new

recruits and are competing

with the Battlefield (PS3) sec-

tion.

the mess that is the MAG

forum, there has been many

recruits brought in this

month, which can only be

good for forum and in game

activity.

Although their primary num-

bers were practically un-

changed, losing one member

from the previous month,

there does not seem to be

any activity on the forums to

report on. As of the writing

of this article there has not

been a gamenight all month,

but is one planned for Thurs-

day May 27th. Hopefully the

gamenight will be successful

and we can hope to see

things go upward for this

section sometime soon.

there has been at least 3-4

is posting up anything and

everything, there MP needs to

sort it out and quickly be-

cause it is just looking plain
