Even though it?s the lazy days of summer, things are quite busy around 
the studio.&nbsp; The coming months promise to be very exciting and to kick 
things off Stuart Zissu (Producer, Dark Age of Camelot), Andy Belford, 
and myself will be making our way across the pond to GamesCom: Cologne. 
While in Germany we?ll be talking about the future of WAR and DAoC so be
 sure to stay tuned for coverage from the event, which takes place 
between August 18th and August 22nd. While in Cologne, we?ll be looking 
to get together and meet up with the players, so watch for updates on 
the Forums, the Herald and Twitter (http://twitter.com/WARHerald) for 
where to hang out with us on the road! </font></td></tr><tr><td><font  size=\"12\" face=\"times\"><a href=\"http://herald.warhammeronline.com/warherald/NewsArticle.war?id=1201\">PTS Stability Test and Dev QA Tonight!</a></font></td></tr><tr><td><font  size=\"12\" face=\"times\">Come one, come all to the Warpstone Public Test Server for tonight's Stability Test at 8:00 PM EDT/02:00 CET! <br><br>Join the BioWare Mythic Development team as we put Game Update 1.3.6 through our regularly scheduled Stability Test by throwing mass amount of players (and Stability Bots!) at some ORvR Keeps...but this time with a twist!<br><br>Two WAR Developers are being held by the forces of Order and Destruction in opposite keeps in one RvR Lake...it's your mission to rescue the Developer and escort them safely back to your Keep before your enemy can do the same!<br><br>Be sure to join us for all the fun during the test!<br><br>Also, join the BioWare Mythic Development team on the official BioWare Mythic Ventrilo server for a Dev Q&amp;A Session starting at 4:00 PM EDT/22:00 CET.

<p></p>Over the past year we have worked to grow a collaborative forum community where all players can come and get important information or just talk about the game they play. In less than 18 months you have totaled over 120 million page views with nearly 1 million posts across 80 thousand discussions leaving no doubt about your dedication and passion for WAR. 
<p></p>As we continue to integrate with the BioWare family we are pleased to announce our plans to bring two great communities together. Next week the Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning forums will join the<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;</span><a style=\"COLOR: rgb(203,150,16); TEXT-DECORATION: none\" href=\"http://social.bioware.com/\">BioWare Social Network</a><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;</span>where you will have the benefits of being a part of a larger community, one with a passion for gaming as big as our own. 
<p></p>We'll be sure to provide clear instructions and information next week before the transition. For now you don't have to do anything and can continue to use these forums normally while we iron out all the details.
