| Alteil card dueling game announces first Guild Wars Event |
An Anonymous Reader Reports: The premise is simple, play as usual in the main Folrart and Crest arenas starting Monday, November 10, at 12 noon EST next week, and if you're in a guild you'll get bonus Gran when the weekly rankings go up the week after! Everyone gets something.
Also, we're going to have extra prizes for the Guilds that earn more victories against competing guild members. Every time a Guild member defeats another Iczer who is in a guild (other then theirs), their guild gets a Victory point. At the end of the week, the victory points will be added, and extra prizes will be given based on what guild has the most points. Duels only count in Folrart and Crest. There will be 1st, 2nd and 3rd prizes.
