In addition to these changes, we will be going through the game and systematically changing the way that we refer to what guilds and hideouts provide you with. In other words, we are changing all instances of 'tp' to 'plans.' All instances of 'mp' will be changed to 'mana.'

We will aim to upload these changes before Age 27 starts.

Why is it that Naz and Viks get the new spell? I don't have a problem with the spell or anything, it just seems to be strange that those two races would share a similar specialty op. Are Naz made up of legions of undead Viks?

as Naz and Vik are both awesome for BC...

vik for 4hr attack and Naz for heavy damage!!! its especially for war!

I have to delay the changes 48 hours*Edit*, until then none of the above updates are uploaded.

It's not a new spell. It's just a common name for a similar effect in war for the races.

Made some minor corrections to the announcement.

Delaying the changes once more, indefinitely this time - but I expect to be able to sit down and do this correctly within a couple of days. With Christmas and new year's celebrations tomorrow I really haven't had the time for this.

We're cleaning up the database's structure too, that is the reason why I can't just type in race numbers... All tables need to be modified in the right order, chances are I'll mess up somewhere even with lots of time on my hands

Thanks for updating the Ravens im looking forward to that

ravens do look fun, if only my connection was more consistent... :P.

just curious, but will anyone be updating the guide to change the MP/TP to mana/plans?

~aqua

In several places of the guide I've already done so, but there are certainly some places left

when the races page will be updated for age 27.

when will races be updated zzzzzzzzzzz

Indefinitely postponed, it looks as if we'll be better off saving these for age 28.
