Welcome to Conquest Games! The player run event inspired by "The Hunger Games".

Player's are pitted against each other in a free for all Battle Royal with limited resources. The last player to survive will be named Supreme Champion of the Realm and be handsomely rewarded with riches from across the land!

This event will always be streamed live on Twitch!


The Arena...

Battle it out in this unforgiving Arena of Doom! Deadly traps await those who dare enter!

How to play...

The assembly point is at the The Barnacle Tavern in Minoc. If you intend to play you must be in Ghost Form and not in a guild.

Image

Image

From here a Moongate will take all participant ghosts to the event arena to begin the Initiation Process. Ghosts will be resurrected, healed, added to the Guildstone, and given a starting bag (clothing, food, 2 heal pots, 2 red pots)

At this point you will be asked to relinquish any newbied items you may have, except of course for your spell book. Please do not bring any newbied items to this event.

Image

Once all players have been initialized a one minute timer will count down for the game to begin. Upon game start the table barriers will be lifted and players become free to attack! Please do not attack/steal before the game starts, doing so will result in "remove thyself".

I will definitely try to be there - sounds awesome!


btw... how hard is it to resign as a guild master? Does everyone have to declare fealty again or what?

I wouldn't recommend resigning as a guild master. The next person on the guild list will be promoted to Guild master, and if you want to change it back you need a majority vote for fealty and wait 24 hours for it to come into effect.

Aries, this event is designed to be repeated. Hopefully I can do it more than once a week.

Cheers everybody, it's my first message here at the forum.

I'm not very bright, so could anyone enlighten me about the correct EST? What EST? EST new york, george town, EST Panama or EST Kingston, or Nassau?

I'm assuming New York, but again, I'm not very bright.

Eastern Standard Time. Right now it's 6:40pm EST. Also the Server Time is in EST, if you type !time into IRC it will tell you what time it is.

New York is EST.

Thank you Rose. And thank you for the event too. It seems like it's going to be great fun. I'll be there for sure.
I'm still learning to play it but the danger of being killed and the surge of adrenaline is what makes me love UO.

See you all there.

Thanks for all of the 'advanced' notice...

That sounds sarcastic. I am currently writing a note about FishinPro needing lots of time(more than 8 hours) to prepare to play a video game.

Later I will forget about this note and smoke the paper I wrote it on.
