NEW TOWN

 

GODDARD

image.png

 

Long long time ago, there used to be talks about a vast, rich, strong, fortress town, of light gray stone built within a mountain and with a castle as big as the eye can see far in the horizon. A town that was known to be a gateway point for traders, adventurers, and even simple travelers on their journeys from north to south and vice versa.

At some point in time, this what sounds to be such an amazing place stopped being so popular, for some reason people stopped wanting to pass by, and then they just didn't anymore, and with time passing stories of this town became legends...legends became myths... and myths became history... and then... forgotten. To the point of latest generations even wondering if such place really existed or it was just stories that passed from father to son along history. Or was it...?

 

In one of their latest excursions the Researcher Guild found some artifacts and ancient documents that made them believe the stories about this town were true, there was indeed something, somewhere northern, although all the researcher teams they would send deeper into that territory would never return... countless teams of brave researchers and adventurers were sent there to gather information and report back, but they never did, and then mercenaries were paid to do the same job, but also never returned...

 

The Researcher Guild was now finally understanding why at some point this town passed from a supposedly wonderful, famous and busy place, to not being used and eventually forgotten... It had become just too dangerous.


When they were about to give up on the project with fear of further unnecessarily loss of young researchers lives, one lonely member of one of the latest expeditions managed to come back... with dreadful news.

 

That person was Researcher Fiero.

Researcher Fiero had found that the whole territory being blocked out by tribes who used to be at war in this region. Investigation found reports that for ages these tribes were in constant battle not only with each other but also with the population of this area and all the other peoples who would pass by.

 

Eventually, these tribes grew smarter, and they realized something interesting... If they work together, they could get rid of the population in the zone and split that territory among both tribes, and then they would have more territory for both tribes and no reason to fight anymore. 

 

Fiero became extremely curious about all of it, and he was not about to come back with all this information  without figuring out the situation at the moment, so he mustered all his bravery and 'stealthiness' and went deep into it. 

 

After some investigation and careful scouting, Fiero figured out the mazing plan of these tribes, they had found all the entering places for this territory, man made or otherwise. and simply blocked it, killing everyone who would get in sight, no one would go in, no one would get out, after some point no one would even dare to come near... and eventually everyone just stopped coming or trying at all.

 

"...but it exists... it is real... and its every piece of amazing as mi grandfather used to say it was lads..." - Fiero, Researcher expedition 343.

 

 

Now, after we received these reports from Researcher Fiero we cannot let those bestial tribes rule over that territory no longer, and we thought "who else could save that place if not the brave adventurers of Classic Club Community?"

So we are here together with the Researchers Guild to recruit YOU, to enlist on a mission to put those tribes back on their place and to help restore the town of Goddard to its former glory, and once again make it a place of trade, life, love, celebrations and friendship.

 

But first things first. we must find these places where the blockades exist, and figure out a way to break these defenses down for the ones following us.

 

According to Researcher Fiero notes, one of the more fortified places is a gate in north of Blazing Swamp, this gate is closed with some mechanism, Fiero reports this mechanism needs some sort of lever, his reports say he has seen such device being used by "the big one", and then he followed this same creature to some fortress near Outlaw Forest, where all the other creatures greeted this bigger one with some respect, he must be somewhat important, and Fiero is sure he is the one holding the lever.

His reports account for countless soldiers guarding this fortress and from time to time he could spot some "different looking" ones that seems to have their own quarters and  were given spoils of war and foods before the rest, he gathers this ones should be some type of generals. He believes there should be at least 3 of this generals. 

In the middle house of this fortress, the bigger one that is according to Fiero where "the big one" lives.

About the generals Fiero points out some information that might help on battling them, on his words:

 

- "...the little one outside likes to shoot things with some sort of long range shooting device, and i saw once he shot a deer, poor creature didn't die from the shot but some minutes later he slowly perished, I'd imagine some sort of poison... maybe..."

 

- "...fat guy with chains, he looked to be responsible for the prisoners, some tried to escape but he used some type of magic ability that drag the ones escaping back to him and it looked like they were magically imprisoned right there in place... don't know what is that kind of sorcery... but he looks a scary fella..."

 

- "...looking to the other side i saw one looking like he was wearing some robes or i don't know, maybe i was too far away, but it felt like they were coming to him when they had some injured or sick soldier, so my guess would be he is some sort of a healer among their people... or some shaman...he might be hard to deal with, he looked really powerful healer, saw them bringing sometimes soldiers in brink of death and couple of seconds later it was fully restored, might need to find some trick to deal with this one..."

 

 

Fiero also managed to include some pictures on his reports, they are not the most informative but he says he couldn't get closer to not risk getting caught

 

Fortress up the road from Outlaw forest, where he saw "the big one" go with the lever.

he marked the location on the map for us.

Place where he last saw "the big one" use the locking mechanism

So, with all the information Fiero gathered for us and the Researcher Guild, the plan is:

At Sunday 07.07.2024 16:00 UTC+2 , we must gather as many people as possible and venture into the fortress where "the big one" is expected to live, battle through all the enemies, slay the generals defending it, gain access to "the big one", and retrieve the key for the door mechanism.

After we obtain the key, we must go to the second location where the gate is and battle the enemies there to gain access to the gate to release the mechanism locking it. According to Fiero these enemies at the gate look strong, so be prepared or be very silent.

Fiero made some arrangements with a small group of militia that has been living in hiding in the territory, they will be waiting on the other side of the gate as reinforcements waiting for the gate to be open.

Good luck, we are counting on you.

I have to say that most of our new maps are boring

FI-interesting map,not too big,can't gate

GC-map is too big,hard to meet pvp,can gate

HB-toooo big,hard to gank enemies,can't gate

anakim/lilith-big,but interesting map,best aoe farm zone.

on my watch,GC and HB almost cant meet pvp,although i know enemies are farming there,im lazy to go so far to gank,

if GC and HB closed,i wont be sorry for them
