Speaking of hompy, he and TheGrandmaster created a brand-new Ace of Spades game mode, based on another game, Soldat. Basically, the blue team gain points for defending the intel while the green team try and retrieve the enemy intel. Read more about Infiltration here. There is quite a conversation stirring up!

Sham and izzy are hosting this game mode, look up "aloha.pk infiltration" or "Rescue Shams Pony" on the play page.

To promote this gamemode, there is a <@> vs. Forums match during Sunday May 6th 7pm GMT.
Sign-up and more details here.


Can't make it? Another event's been planned. There will be a Tower of Babel Mumble match on May 13th. Get a mic and use voice communication to dominate the enemy team!

Yeah, I had the idea of a newsletter for a long time but decided to start after the 1 year birthday mark.

So far, I'm not looking for any help. But I'd love if you guys could suggest some news topics, etc. :)

I like this. Seems a bit more interesting than the other newsletter type thing.

Some ideas:

    -ToS in the works
    -New registration/server list launcher
    -Pay2Play

Just some ideas.

Thankyou for writing this in a post. I cannot stand having posters that and other ridiculous things that only make something "pretty". I have been trying to keep up-to-date with this game and stuff like this is really great, just in case I miss out on something.

Glad you enjoy this! I was originally going to make a poster but abandoned the idea because:
1) they take a long time to make
2) large hi-res images can take some time to download
3) too snazzy

I will try to promote AoS media (pics/vids) as well in the next issue.

But i made 3rd issue on 25th april...
viewtopic.php?f=11&t=348
Anyways, i have finals in 20 days so sorry for being busy :/
And is the pm system broken or am i just not getting articles? :D

Guys, maybe we could work together (more people, less trouble)? You could do the plain text version and i could do the formatted image thing, unless you have anything against that.

We could all contribute articles...
...but how would we (actually you, since i would just help) call it? IF you want to work together...

I like the Spade Courier, don't take this the wrong way but I don't really like making a graphical newsletter type thing. :s

Plain text eh? I can live with that.
But is there any way we can cooperate so we have this newsletter thing easier?
