War for Hirestel Preview: The Spire


There are many Realmgates across the Realms that open up into Hirestel, but only one Realmgate in Hirestel of which all Realmgates flow: The Spire. The Spire is one of the most magical and mysterious spots in Hirestel, and battle for control of it will be incredibly difficult and rewarding.

The first Battleplan is called "Blood on the Spire Steps" and is a multiplayer match for 3 to 6 players with armies consisting of 1000 points. The Realmgate resides near the steps and battles are constantly being waged in an effort to be one of the first to make it to the top of The Spire.

The winner of the match will earn 1 point per participant for control of The Spire, but ALSO be allowed to enter The Spire and begin to ascend to the top!

In "Ascension", the games turns into a 75 pt. Skirmish match between two victors of "Blood on the Spire Steps"! There will be a chart present to track everyone's progress. Once you've won a game on  The Spire steps, your progress is saved and you can come back to "Ascension" until you win. Once you win and head up to the rooftop terrace, it's all or nothing!

"Ascension" is full of treasure and traps, but winning this match gets you entrance to "View From the Top" - a 1000 pt. Pitched Battle on the perilous rooftop of The Spire!

The points earned from victory in this Battleplan will be HUGE in control towards The Spire! Once you've earned victory in all three Battleplans, your points are earned and your progress is reset. There are 27 other ways to play, but if your influence should fall to another Grand Alliance, you may always come back and fight your way back to the top!
