Issue #17: Shape Your Game!

Scheduling Changes! Effective immediately, the Friday NA Training & Event are cancelled. While the linebattle will doubtless still take place as we are not the ones hosting it, we will not be attending it as a regiment anymore until further notice. The overall attendance of the event was poor and linebattles with rules as strict as the ones we abide by are not quite as much fun with lines consisting only of a handful of people. Furthermore, we are bringing back Thursday Trainings and Events! After many of you have voiced your desire for this particular time slot to be filled up again, there will now be trainings and, depending on turnout, events hosted on Thursdays again! These will take place at the same time our other regular events happen - 20:00 CEST Conquest of Nations Now that the latest update to the game has had a chance to establish itself, the developers want your feedback! Following last Sunday's Conquest Event, we have started a thread to gather our collective opinions and suggestions on how to further improve the new game mode. Join the discussion here! e-Sports are Sports Too! The newly dubbed Holdfast Conquest League (HCL) for North America has opened up pre-season registrations. This means that teams will be able to compete before the actual season starts, which is scheduled to happen with the upcoming Melee Update. The rule set was changed slightly, too, as now each team will consist of 12 players as opposed to 6. If you would like to know more about the event or even sign up for it, head over to the official forums! As for the EU version of the event, we still would like to encourage you to sign up here, as there is a possibility of the 12-man-teams being adopted as well. The EU season will also happen after the Melee Update, which according to our latest intel will be the very next update. We will continue to update you with any further development. Time for your weekly event schedule: Remember that the Friday Event is cancelled and that there will instead be a Thursday Training at 20:00 CEST. The Saturday Public Linebattle is at 20:00 CEST and the Sunday Linebattle happens at 20:00 CEST. This has been your weekly dose of the Minden News™! We will see you on the battlefield.

It was like an old dog that the owners where reluctant to put down, even though it was basically a walking corpse.
