Sword Of The New World Adventures

A highly controversial issue in Orpesia....the behavior and actions of Phalanx. Today In a fierce fight against other clans Phalanx has managed to take over the map.

Peace makers? World Takers? Colony Breakers? Small-clan Haters?
You Decide what you think....Either way here are some screenies
Karana Lays down the Rules!Phalanx takes the map.
War ends and they get bragging rights.

My Two Cents: Bravo for being strong enough to take the map.....but the game was more fun when there were actually colonies to fight for. If there were a 5 colony limit...or if they only wanted part of the map it would be more fun for smaller clans to try to fight. Having the whole map completely dominated pretty much ends CW...which is a shame because it can be a lot of fun.

Either way. STH and Phalanx had some pretty epic fighting going on...some of it will show up in a vid I make later most likely.

And because It has to be said......~Lamperouge~'s Nar was badass.

Well here I have to share the Clan Event held for all Clan Members by Justice! In advance Justice told the clan we were having this event from several days ago. It all Began with Justice getting into character...I headed over to the Beach and got ready....=PWe all gathered together with a surprisingly good turnout! If only we could get the same for HWR.Justice then gave us a pep talk and traded everyone an Angler Spin...Some people, however, could not follow instructions.
Every member launched a spin at the same time, and there were a lot of anglers running around. If you are curious the ratio for Swamp Anglers to Bog Anglers was about 1:4After Killing all the spins (no dhr T_T) Justice opened a ton of different CS Boxes RR StyleFinally he ended it with this.
In conclusion, it was a fun event...It's nice to see the clan leader holding events and bringing the clan together. Go STH and happy gaming to the rest of ya!

Sadly today I received the news that a long time friend and inspiration in the sword was pratically quitting the game. LionofGenesis is essentially retiring just like Fossa. Here are some final screenshots chillen with the big guy.

I will really miss LionofGenesis. He was definitely one of the best geared and well liked members of STH.

My History with LionofGenesis
First met Lion in PY when I thought farming G and Chim in there was a good idea to gear up, yea and he killed me.
Squaded with Lion as frequently as possible for going in there.
Fought against Lion in CW as Shineska and he still owned me.
Joined STH and we became clannies!
From then on Lion has been my Circus partner and guardian in mostly all STH raids and cw events. He has been a mentor and inspiration in the Sword world.

Lion's Legacy! Things that remind me of Lion:
Favorite Lion Quote: "I'm Lion betch and I drive in reverse"
Lion's best known for his keen ability to raid while drinking!

Lastly, Lion gave me some of his shiny treasures for me to look after while he is away!

Lion we will all miss you in STH and we wish you the best in whatever you do!

Alright Finally Finished! Sword of the New World Ice Gate Videos! Check'em out!

Part I:



Hey Guys! Another release here! This time it is Ice Gate, I have parts I and II ready...Here I am trying to set a more dramatic scene, I want to show more than just the raid, I want to show the surrounding area and set the stage for the raid itself. This video covers scenes from KTV, FW, and some of the members that participated in the raid. Hope you enjoy! I am also saving the credits for the end of part III but so you know the music is from Two Steps From Hell.

And Part II:



Hey Guys here is Ice Gate Part II. This video covers scenes from Floor I, Floor II, The Elevator, and Floor III. Sorry about the shaky camera at the beginning. It is surprisingly hard to record everything on High settings with so many people in attendance. Hope you enjoy! I am also saving the credits for the end of part III but so you know the music is from Two Steps From Hell.

Still working on Part III T_T sorry.

Hope you Enjoy!

So I did not witness this myself because I was on my alt, but another clannie has sent me this:
And I checked alt-y later and it turns out this is the case T_T Ama has left the clan. We will very much miss her enthusiasm and delightful conversations, I hope she keeps her blog http://amalielle.blogspot.com/

Its always sad to see a friend go especially when you did not get a chance to say goodbye, but she had this as a former post

"I don't know, but if one day I'm gone, you know where I've gone to. I won't say good bye, because it's not the end. I won't give away my account because one day I will be back. I won't QQ on broad because there's nothing to be QQ about. Silently I've come, silently I will go~. Just miss me a little, because I will miss you too <3"

I can only assume she either found something she did not like with ShakeTheHeavens, or the more likely case is she is moving back to Ragnarok Online.

You will be missed!

Posting a picture of the elusive Ice gate orb. After ascending to the second floor of IG and depositing the BMS in the proper location an Orb appears leading to the elevator! This is it!

Check out my new movie on YouTube!



t is finally Finished! The Movie is Complete, Thanks to all who participated....and for those that did not get a chance too...you can next time...Remember to turn the Sound on for it!

Thanks Stutts for cheering me on.

Description:
Turn the Sound ON! This is a quick introduction to the MMO Sword of the New World. This video features some of the locations, classes and bosses that can be found within the game. There is also a segment that features the new content that was just added in the new patch v3.4. The last section of the video features my clan, ShakeTheHeavens. This is my first video I am publishing, I realize there is a lot of room for improvement so constructive criticism is appreciated. Finally, Sorry to all my clannies that did not get a chance to be featured in this video, don't worry I'll get you in the next one. Feel Free to PM me in game, Although I'll probably be afk =P

So a quick recap of CW:

For STH we just picked up some new members from the former S.T.A.R.S clan. New members include:

1.Rmans
2.Maoster
3.Trigergrupe
4.Death2You
5.trevolt
6.Vonhapsburg
7. jarguonazz
8.Lexia
9.Arkainaz
10.Hajime_no_Ippo
11. Veronican

|Justice| lead us to victory capturing Tetra Hill and scorching. Exciting CW because we took Tetra and Scorching, then they took Tetra Back, and in the last 12 min we took it back again =)

I also discovered my crappy builder team can get a colony from 50 down to 38k in ~10 min.

Pedobear got some new members from S.T.A.R.S. also. One dude I met was Eigenmann...genuinely nice talkative fellow.

Also something sneaky happened that I just realized. |Justice| won the election because probably all of Phalanx voted for him. Apparently, if you are the winner of the election, you cannot switch the leader....This means we can't buff Lion for LG....Crap!

A extraordinarily generous clannie holds a competition every Monday in STH. The goal of the contest is that Ida posts a picture of a location and the competitors have to find this location in game. The winner recieves a ton of loot. Sadly, this weeks competition requires a vet calypso. So I spent essentially all week leveling myself a Caly. I dunno why it took so long this time around, normally I can vet a character in four days. Oh well....Today I have a vet Caly.

In, Clan news, S.T.A.R.S. disbanded because they may be merging with us. This is very sudden and it seems our vices were not consulted. I don't think anyone in STH is happy about this merge.

Alright so I am back in Ancient Area Skeleton Dungeon. Surprisingly with a buff pet, 10% speed gloves, Halloween back Costume, and 5% apatite in the LoE, Helena can solo! The clover buff that appears every so often is nice too! The primary benefit of soloing is that no one drags you when you are leveling which commonly a huge problem since memorials were added. Here is a quick pic!



In other news Phalanx is probably mad as hell. LionofGenesis is completely rocking out in LG. I don't know what magic powers he has imbued into his characters but he managed to snag a ELB for musk, yay clan!

It seems that without Roley and ShojoBeat a united front between the rest of the stronger clans is enough to suppress the new Aegis. In this week's CW Phalanx was only able to seize control of three colonies in the end. It should also be noted that Angie as actually just that awesome at breaking colonies....I must train another. The major players against Phalanx were STH, Core, Pedobear, and Ethereal.

For any of you that have not heard, Aegis is back without ShojoBeat and Roley. They return under the name Phalanx. This clan war they showed up to wipe Othrys off the map. Currently STH, Core, and Othrys are in an alliance to prevent total takeover. This weekend Othrys lost all their colonies, despite the best efforts of Othrys and most of STH. Core lost one and STH lost 2 but gained Scorching when with less than 30 seconds to go the colony was broken. Honestly, the result was unexpected because there was so little time the rotating blades and everything where out, so when someone Finally showed up from Othrys, even though we stopped dpsing, the blades kept on going and we ended up taking scorching right before CW ended.

Here is just a quick Vid I made using footage from today's CW. It just shows some expert stance skills.



also here in full resolution:
http://rapidshare.com/files/350427624/SOTNWCW.zip.html

That's Right. I got the colony last hit AGAIN! Muhahahhaha.

|Justice| Had a master plan that paid off in the end. I can't go into detail about what we did but the end involved an epic battle between Core, Othrys and STH. Oh and we got the Colony of course.

Unfortunately, Othrys did not seem to like this at all and declared a perma war. There is much speculation on why they kept the war. Some say they were pissed about the colony. Other say Roley ordered it. Why they did we will never know. What I do know is it ended about an hour or two ago.

So now it is official. Shineska has pretty much reassembled in ShakeTheHeavens. Today, Under_Cover, DIMEz, DarkBones and I joined up in STH. Wow... so many active people, and so many timers....Too bad I got dragon age....As you can see my first act as a member was to take Adelina and Lorch to the freezone and afk T_T. I use to be an active! when did I become an afker? AAAAHHHHHH.

Yay, So I had a chat with |Justice| and It looks like I will be joining STH with DIMEz, DarkBones, Under_Cover, Humingbird, and little dodds

So while I was afked in FI 100k Zone, I received a pm from a clannie. They said "Why did we disband?" And for a moment I had to take that in.... Then my response was "WHAT?" Lo and behold... While I was afked it turns out Under_Cover disbanded the clan. Apparently, Agonize told him to do so....

I guess I am in the market for a clan now.
