Warzones
Players at Maelstrom Mixer will sign up for one of seven distinct warzones, each a bespoke conflict between two rival factions, each with a fully developed story and plot ark. Each side in these conflicts will consist of 4-5 players who will work together to accomplish their faction's goals. Over the course of the weekend, you will get to know your fellow teammates, learning how best to apply your collective talents and army compositions to the challenges you face. Similarly, you will come to know the rival Warlords in your warzone, each of them posessing charecteristic strengths ... as well as weakness that can be exploited.
