Bioware has officially released its first major game update, Rise of the Rakghouls. We should expect a few content changes and additions whether you’re a low level or high level player. The biggest update is the vast expansion of “Karagga’s Palace Operation.” As Bioware reported on its site, This addition will more than triple the size of the Operation as a whole! Playing through the expanded Hutt Hospitality Operation will test you and your allies’ skills against Karagga’s private army of bounty hunters and battle Droids before culminating in a massive final battle! Making your way through Karagga’s palace will  [ Read More ]

So 2012 has finally arrived. The Hield Collective has gone through many changes since we announced our involvement with Star Wars: The Old Republic. With the game release, everything that we hoped Bioware would bring to the game has come true. The Collective, as a guild, has not been very busy in the past few weeks. We all were experiencing the game and getting our feet wet with all the features that SW:TOR has to offer. However, with the ringing in to the new year, it is time for The Collective to start becoming more active in official guild business.  [ Read More ]

Distant Kings, Barad Lotsa Thieves

Everyone knows how beautiful the landscape is in Lord of the Rings Online. Part of the appeal of the game is the scenery and the fine detail that goes into the realism of the world we quest in. Whether it’s a simple Elven bridge before a waterfall in Ered Luin or the skyline as the sun sets in Enedwaith, the world of Tolkien is breathtaking. Now, HY will be hosting a biweekly contest featuring player screenshots taken around Middle-earth! Every two weeks, Cwen and the officers will select a winner from player submitted screenies. Photos will be judged on 1) Originality  [ Read More ]

Cwen comes out to see her ex-fiance, Tyne Dernhere standing in the doorway.

So, many of you know that Cwen is currently involved in a very indepth storyline. If you’d like to catch up, and don’t mind a ton of reading /say and /emote, here is the RP Capture, edited for clarity, including spelling, grammar, punctuation, reorganizing so dialogue is together for sensicality, and so on and so forth. It is over 100 pages long, and I’m at least two days behind as of 8/15/2011. You’ve been warned! Extra information would include Cwen’s Diary information or whatnot. Okay, so a google document of the chatlog so far… https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Sd7ypTXjIIUVfacS0LJperF5W-oKR5jUks2LID0yzoM/edit?hl=en_US It’s currently under construction as  [ Read More ]
