EaW Battle Royale: 1st Raven (9) , 2nd Giz (7 ), 3rd Eric (5.5)

It went well, although people kind of died down a bit later in the week. There are a few folks that were still working out some MP bugs (hopefully the next patch will fix all of us). I also played a few matches with yall where we tackled some hard computer opponents, which was pretty fun.

Competition Results - 03/07/06

Congratulations go out to Task Force Chisha! They took the lead early and never stopped driving forward. In the last few days of the competition, Ninjin began to creep back into the picture, and now looks quite formidable, but Chisha pulled away, winning the event overall by a score of 50 to 36 over 22 matches. Raven was the top pilot overall, followed by Karredo and then Giz.

Chisha:
Raven: 7-0-2
Giz: 4-1-0
Eric: 2-1-1
Feak: 0-2-0

Ninjin:
Karredo: 4-1-2
Jinx: 2-2-0
Blast: 0-4-1
Barnes: 0-1-0

Site up - 2/2/06

Welcome to Righteous Indignation Division. Our site is now up and fully running and have our two task forces, Chisha and Ninjin open for joining. We're also proud to have the demo hosted here, for a speedy download.

Beyond that, if you look in the demo section, you'll see that we've compiled some of the mods folks have made for the demo. If you've breezed through the entire demo already, you may want to check them out, as they add some serious life to it.

The game is scheduled for release on February 16th, which is in only a few short weeks away. We'll be rolling into full gear as it hits the shelves. I'm working on getting our Team Speak Channel to create an Empire at War channel, as well as getting everyone on Xfire. Stay tuned for more news as it becomes available. Welcome Aboard!
