WoW

Summer of Love is coming! We are looking to have the schedule for our annual Summer of Love soon, though due to a scheduling conflict with the tail end of Nerdtacular, we will be pushing things back by a week. But don’t worry, A COOP, a Wedding, and shenanigans are being planned. And, of course, the very important Remembrance Day!

And even though San Diego Comicon didn’t give the fans what they were dying for (Trailer!), there was a fair bit of WOW Movie News- including posters featuring both Durotan and Lothar. Wowhead and the Nerdist both have a good wrap up of the panel- plus, there has been a promise of a real preview in November, probably at Blizzcon. And, every report from SDCC has said that the footage was amazing.

SWTOR

Not related to SWTOR directly, but additional amazing news from SDCC- there was a three minute Episode 7 behinds the scene reel that was shown at Comicon and quickly put up on youtube. It MAY of driven a number of adults to tears. Seriously, if you have not seen it, go watch it now!

Are you in SWTOR and want the Cantina Speeder? Some of our generous guild mates have been kind enough to share extra codes on the forums.

This week on SWTOR Escape Podcast #98, @AIESema, @MaxTheGrey and Astromech EPC-98 talk about the official and unofficial community resources available for SWTOR outside the game: podcasts, websites, videos, blogs, streams and tools. They talk about some of their favorites in each category and where you can go for more.They also cover other game news for the week from SWTOR in general and from our guild, Alea Iacta Est. And, a huge congrats to our friends over at the Escape Podcast, as they near their 100th episode!

And with that, let’s get back to Hoots and Lanc and find out what’s going on with AIE in EVE..

GAME NEWS

Fozziesov

Okay, that’s a lot of reading. What’s the summary?

Summary: you don’t need to bring out massive fleets with giant ships to capture sovereign space any more. You just need to control the battlefield with this little doo-dad called and entosis link.

Here is a handy flow chart: http://cdn1.eveonline.com/www/newssystem/media/66967/1/sovflow.jpg
