Bitter Rivals: Choppa and Slayer!

[News Herald]

As announced in the newsletter, we are excited to bring you news of the latest additions to the Armies of WAR!

Choppa Slayer

For uncounted centuries, the Dwarfs and greenskins have been the most bitter of rivals. Now that the Slayer and the Choppa are set to join the armies of Order and Destruction, old grudges will be answered and ancient enmities will be given new breath. Though the outcome of the war still hangs in the balance, one thing is certain: the battle for the Warhammer world is about to become deadlier than ever!

Once the Bitter Rivals live event begins this March, take part in daily challenges to earn a head start in the two awesome new careers.

This exciting news and more is described in detail in this month's Newsletter, but here's a sneak peek of what's to come:

CHOPPA!! Marauder never did much for me, but once you go green, you can't go back.

I'm not seeing what really matters. No mention of changes to the "rubbish" zone control mechanics. Did I just miss this among the hype?

"
Land of the Dead Opens (June): The deserts of Nehekhara open to players with the addition of a new RvR-gated dungeon zone. To gain access to the Land of the Dead, opposing Realms must battle for control of the zone to access dozens of new Public Quests, instanced lairs, and a massive new Tomb Kings dungeon to plunder in search of the Casket of Souls.

<Cough> Darkness Falls <Cough>

Darkness falls was awesome and popular no reason not to make something similar especially with people complaining about the endgame

1.2 or 1.3 is when there adding this.

"3) RvR changes/improvements. - This is a rather lengthy list which includes a new scenario, changes to the Zone control system, lots of Keep Upgrades (this is only our first pass at it), oRvR events and additional rewards for Zone and Campaign captures."

[Gisli]

Yes, that post from Mark clearly says further down that those 'changes to the Zone control system" will come in 1.2, and that the patch will go to Test server in early February.
