Alludra: AIE Podcast News
We will be moving to a new Internet Relay Chat (IRC) server for the live recording chat room. The new server was set up to support not only the podcast, but game divisions of AIE which need some open-access chat capability.
The new channel can be accessed as #podcast on irc.aie-guild.org on port 6667 or on port 6697 for SSL/TLS encrypted sessions (which we recommend). You can also use our secure web client.
If you are new to IRC, there are tutorials available.

Mkallah: World of Warcraft
Noob Raids First Anniversary is coming soon!
http://forum.myextralife.com/topic/55947-noob-raids-first-anniversary/
Here is what Sparrow, the esteemed leader of Noob Raid has to say: It has been a fun year and a great time, I have made some amazing friends and had the opportunity to play with some of the greatest people in the game.
How do we plan to celebrate this event? By going back where we started, but this time we are going Heroic !! ( was going to do mythic, but I dont want to limit the size of the group) .
Saturday, March 21st at 11pm game time we will be setting off into Siege of Orgrimmar,
If we end up with more than one full raid team, we will split off and make more.
Come one, come all share your tales of Noobish valor and adventure!
Spring Craft Faire CooP
Grimcow has put up more information around the upcoming COOP craft faire. Gather at 8pm server on April 25th at the Goblin Death Blimp in Orgrimmar. COOP heads out at 9! The plan is to form as many groups as needed, and of course priority in the primary group is given to those without the War Bear. And we do need as many people as possible to run support, as those nasty Allaince leaders and friends hit HARD. Level 100 is prefered, but not required- and no PVP gear is needed.

WoW Game Token
http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/18141101/introducing-the-wow-token-3-2-2015
Coming soon to an Azeroth near you: the WoW Token, a new in-game item that allows players to simply and securely exchange gold and game time between each other.
Players will be able to purchase a WoW Token through the in-game Shop for real money, and then sell it on the Auction House for gold at the current market price. When a player buys a WoW Token from the Auction House for gold, the Token becomes Soulbound, and the player can then redeem it for 30 days of game time
When you put it up on the AH, you are guaranteed the price you list it at, even if the price decreases or increases, and when you buy one from the AH, you get it at the price listed at that time. Any difference in what it was listed at and sold at it taken by the AH.
Alludra: Star Trek Online
There will never been a better time to start playing Star Trek Online than during the Delta Recruitment event, which runs from April 2nd to May 21st. Characters made during this time will be Delta Recruits, and they will earn a host of new benefits and rewards to aid them in their leveling experience.
Delta Recruits are specifically designed to rapidly close the gap that exists between new characters and characters that have been in Star Trek Online for years. It’s the most new-player friendly the game has been in almost two years, and the perfect time to join the community of Star Trek Online.

Tetsemi: Imperium Lūdī- Tabletop RPGs
Did you know that we have a section of the AIE forums devoted to RPGs- the old school Role playing games? Well, we do- and there is at least one current discussion of getting a 5ed campaign going. Do you want to try your hand at DMing, or want to explore the genre that started it all? Head on over to the Imperium Ludi section of the forums to start organizing a game- it is now easier than ever to play, thanks to lots of online tools like D20 system.
Mkallah- And with that, let’s get back to Abo and Kelseer and find out what’s going on in Final Fantasy ..
And with that, let’s get back to Sema and Max and find out what’s going on in FFXIV…
