Warsong Gulch: First look *Spoilers*

Check out Blizards own article for th story line behind the Warsong Gulch here.

I had a play on the test server and when I saw this I thought I was in for a long wait!

So I entered the portal and got a little icon next to my map, i moused over it and guess what! only a 6minute wait!

After getting into the Battlegrounds I was straight into the action, the map size is not very big, only taking a minute or so to run across from base to base and half that when mounted (lvl 60 mount).

A very nice little addition to the new patch is the estimated ammount of contribution points gained from that kill is now shown in the combat log. It's estimated because it doesn't take into account the diminishing returns (killing the same person on the same day gets you less combo points each time).

He's a screenshot of the opponents we were up against, it was 6 pallies, 1 rogue, 1 warlock and 2 mages! lol Saying that our team did have 4 Undead Rogues :)

Playing in here was great fun, and I racked up about 80 kills within half an hour! (Was in a Raid group as you can see). The only current problem was that both of the flags were lost/bugged! No-one had any idea where they were, so the score stayed at 1-1 the enitire time I was in there. I'm sure that this will be fixed soon though, in the update next week I'm guessing.

Looks ace. :)

Are they the blood tokens from enemy drops in the inventory?

Hehe, no they are healing potions :)

Although you can loot the enemie for a few silver (not their actual money) and then they can't be resed or walk back to their body, they need to res at the spirit heal that's reses everyone waiting once per minute i think, and without res sickness.
