This topic which acts as a quick War help Desk.

So.. got a question?

What is the ultimate purpose of War as an event ?

Also, while experience in previous Wars is appreciated, should War target a more newer audience than the already established audience ?  In other words, should War participation be more open to newcomers instead of being exclusive to Rare farmers and/or FG grinders ?

There are many levels of PvP on the forums; PvP tournaments, PvP leagues, PvP events.  Each of these is pretty friendly to new players and is a good place to get 'name recognition'.  Look at war as the 'all-star game' for elements.  The top players all split into teams and have a large spectacle.  If one wishes to play in a war, play in tournaments, one of the leagues, join PvP events, spend time in the official chat and give yourslef name recognition and experience.  For an event like war, involving new players is not necessicarily a good idea most of the time.

Has the underworld tourney been been reduced to single elimination, and if so, what are the new deck building rules?

That was explained in the Underworld: Round 1 thread.

Will the chosen events cards made public before the actual fighting starts (i.e. during vault-building), or not?

A community Event based around the "Master" community title.

War is ment to involve players of all levels but moreso those that are most commited to the community. Being commited means that you have likely grown out of being a rookie and shown some sommunity presence and or effort before.

Each one will be shown during deckbuilding for that round and not beforehand.

Will there be a limit on the number of matches between 2 teams in a given round (e.g., no more than 2 time/death matches in a round)?  Will there be limits on the number of times 2 players will face one another in consecutive rounds in the early part of the war?

besides the first drama allready starting^^ :

a simple question:
is there a (visible) timeline for the whole event?

i'd like to know things like; when is the propaganda vote over?
how much time do we have for role desicion/vaultbuilding etc.
when does the first war/duel round start?

this is just to prevent a puff-you-need-a-vault-yesterday-effect.

The propaganda voting closes in a couple of hours. After that you'll have a few days left to finish your vault and then duels for round 1 will be announced.
