It's been 350 years since the Fall of the Selucarian Empire. In celebration, as we do every 50 years, we'll have having events and putting in new content from minor to major during the approximately two weeks that year 350 will last for. Part of this Achaean fiesta is a series of contests and games that result in the overall winner. You can read more about it at


Note in particular that the winner will get his or her choice of a new iPod or a real-world sword called "The Sword of the Sun God." (pictured on the aforementioned webpage.)

So come check us out and enjoy the excitement! A new player isn't going to be winning the year 350 events but can still have a lot of fun participating and supporting a guild leader or mentor.
