Have you ever wanted to be part of a group that controls real and strategic territory in Ultima Online? Are you tired of PvP for the same reasons in the same old places and are looking for a breath of fresh air? Here’s your chance to be part of something truly exciting:
Baja will be holding its very first Capture The Fort event this coming Saturday eve at 4:00 PM PST. The event will be divided in two phases:
1) 4:00 PM PST to 5:30 PM PST – Attack Phase
During this phase, you should aim to gain control over the area. There are several strategies that come to mind, how will you approach it?
2) 5:30 PM PST onwards – Flag phase
Lay claim to the garrison during this phase by being the first team to have your hue on the flag for 10 consecutive minutes (the clock will reset if someone rehues the flag). Remember, the flag is inside a house and normal house rules related to PvP do apply. We might move the flag out for the next event if this becomes a major issue, but for now it will probably stay inside. So strategize accordingly.
Once again, the winners will be given the keys to this rather large garrison in middle of T2A for an entire month. Be the first group of players to ever win such a massive territory within T2A!
