Numerous people have asked me about the ongoing availability of the battleisle

for testing/training. As far as I'm concerned, for the foreseeable future,

the battleisle will remain fully accessible for anyone who wants to go there

and play, learn, arrange duels (advisable), etc. Strikes me there's no

a disadvantage to having folks learn firsthand the nuances of warfare as

best they can - battleisle, as many of you will have found, presents a

slightly artificial impression as all the legions there are fullrange 100%

skills whereas legions in real Avalon are rather more a pick'n'mix. The

battleisle will certainly remain open until MISSIONS are live.
