Night of Murder - 2/9 thru 2/16/2010

Greetings!
“As darkness falls on the Night of Murder, the worshippers of death bathe the land in blood, each intent on proving his or her devotion to the Elf god Kaela Mensha Khaine. It is a time that the forces of Destruction are all too willing to exploit. Assassins infiltrate the cities, while on the battlefield the differences between Good and Evil fade beneath the crimson haze of bloodlust. None are immune to the will of Khaine during this dark holiday.”
We will be bringing all North American Servers offline tomorrow, 2/9/2010 starting at 10:00 AM EST for maintenance. During this maintenance we will be enabling the Night of Murder Live Event. At this time we anticipate that all servers will be back online no later than 2:00 PM EST. As always, please check the Herald for up to the minute information on this downtime.
For more information on the Night of Murder Live Event, please check the event page here.
Thank you for your continued support.
