As promised it has been done! The Alliance Southern Minnesota staff is proud to invite you to join us at Camp Parker in Nisswa, Minnesota for a full out castle siege on April the 1st of 2011! While we don't want to give to much away, the siege will feature a multi-stage battle including breaching the exterior wall, and a fight for the castle section by section against a determined, and disciplined foe. Of course after the siege there is plenty of wilderness territory to explore and things to discover, and our plot team is hard at work making sure there is plenty to discover!

The Camp Parker Castle Features the Following
1.) Large courtyard surrounded by a castle wall with walkway.
2.) Underfloor heating - Keeps you warm all event!
3.) Full bathrooms, with multiple heated showers!
4.) Two full Barracks each with room for 32 heads. (one can be seperated into two 16 bunkers)
5.) Four Private Bunk rooms with 4 Bunks each (We'll likely be offering up to three of these for extra rent if you'd like a bit of privacy for your group stay tuned!)
6.) A Massive Mess Hall with the most complete Kitchen we've had yet!
7.) Multiple inside areas fit for combat, even larger scale (including a massive basement area.
8.) A Few other suprises!
9.) Well lit, safe, and as in period as you can get with all of the above.

Of course this Event is a bit of a gamble for the Southern Minnesota game and we hope to have the turn out to justify using this most excellent site again in the future! In game plot lines will begin in January to encourage local players to reach out across their network of allies for help in this assault, with our newly increased build cap of 255 more characters then ever can make it through the mists!
 
Is this a hard cap...or soft cap???

As in...does it count things like blacksmithing and craftsmen others???

I'm pretty sure they've said it's a hard cap of all build EARNED, not just what you've spent.

If you current character doesn't fit below that cap, you're invited to bring an Alt, start a new character, or NPC.

It is indeed a hard cap, although we are currently considering a number of requests to bend a small amount for those who have accidentally/recently gone over the cap (ie card is 3 build over the cap but 5 of that build is unspent because the characters been getting winter blankets).

Regardsless of the final decision on the above issue (stay tuned, final word by EoB monday), we considered making this game no-capped before posting it, but have noted repeatedly that the cap would be in place for this event. However please note that the build cap is officially scheduled for full removal after our October event this year, so be sure to brush off your favorite toon for our "off season" games and the 2012 season!

Although we do not know how long it will be before we use the castle again, although we have access to use it again, it is a more substantial commitment to reserve, so I always encourage everyone to try to come experience it if you can!
