For those of you who are working on ships for the contest, they need to be done and submitted by Saturday. We will go through them all and have results for you by Monday! Good luck to all and we can't wait to see what you all have come up with.

A distress call has been heard from deep space, Mr. S is requesting your immediate assistance!

His ship is believed to hold a weapon of great power that needs to be protected at all cost.

After careful consideration, the overworld spawn has been defined as the best place to hide and protect this equipment. A beacon has been setup to guide him to this safe place.

According to latest telemetry measures, his ship would be arriving among us on Saturday 15th July 1PM CET (Texas), 8PM CEST (Paris). At which time, all existing, returning and new members of the community will have the opportunity to fortify the overworld spawn.

It's believed that his nemesis are in pursuit and will arrive shortly after him, about 1h later.

Until then, you've this final week to recruit, build weapons and sharpen your defence strategy in preparation for the final attack. You may also raid your neighbors for good measure, too :).

As said, if not protected, this weapon will trigger a full server wipe and, according to the ancients, the beginning of a new age will happen... somewhere in space... among Arch magical beings...

Update: a scouting probe has been sent, it captured what appears to be a ennemy ship

We're giving another try to ArsMagica2 with an experimental 1.10.2 modpack on Curse.

Look for "Mage Wars" in the launcher!
