i have been thinking of ways to make this game more interesting. how about making a set of Races within the Withered Aegis playable? they DO have an entire eastern continent to themselves. so, why not make the WA a player faction? you could have *real* invasions, run by real people, and the Gifted to counter this invasion, instead of going to the ED and killing mobs. it gives reason to do events, and it effects the whole Istarian world. properly balanced this could be a game-changing implimentation. it also makes others work together as a whole unit, because if you lose...you lose a whole town for example. we could write Istarian history as we play the game...
