Well, if you want to see some other screenshots...





What we are striving to create is, indeed, a more mature platform, which we will create with an interesting storyline(s), lovely areas and amazing quests. Moreover, changing the look of World of Warcraft into something more mature, more dark, to indeed catch the interest of more mature (the old generation of Warcraft) players.

More updates are coming soon!
Mainly we'll post updates on our forum first. ;)

Fatal:
Who, What, Why
[paragraph:1nt8l80l]We are a small team with a similar goal in mind. Reformation and refurbishment of the greatest MMORPG platform in the history of gaming, and revive a story that the recent expansions have warped and torn apart. From the greatness of the Warcraft games, to the original release of World of Warcraft, we know what has worked and what hasn't, and we wish not only to bring World of Warcraft back in the sense that many of the Blizz-Like servers have accomplished, but we wish to improve upon it. Many of the avid Warcraft fans are of the older generation, and we wish to gear towards a more mature audience. Our stories will be filled with love and lost, greed and loss and especially war. We are hoping to do what George R.R. Martin did to Lord of the Rings, and bring about not only the Warcraft we love, but a more gritty and realistic Azeroth we saw in the original 90s games.[/paragraph:1nt8l80l]
Player versus Environment, Player versus Player, Roleplay
[paragraph:1nt8l80l]There has been questions over what we are hoping to achieve as a server. Our features would suggest we are both player versus environment and player versus player, but our expansive revitalised lore would suggest a roleplaying server for adults. We are both neither and both. We are a re-telling of Azeroth, and a revival of the "retail" servers that encompass all three play-styles. For the player versus environment and player versus player addicts, we will have constantly added and updated content for players to wage against and for the roleplayers, we will implement features to make their lives easier. Our policy on all forms of roleplay is that if anything taboo is kept private, we do not mind, and we will take action against any players who purposefully cause disruption to the atmosphere. We do not enforce all players to roleplay, but we ask that both discretion and respect is upheld on the server.[/paragraph:1nt8l80l]
Custom Lore, Adult-Geared, Mature Ethos
[paragraph:1nt8l80l]With custom lore, we have decided to veer away from the cheery depictment of a world that is supposively distraught with war. We will not enforce an age limit upon our servers, but there is a warning that there will be adult content in the server, all for the sake of realism and fantasy. This is not to say that player-characters will engage in intercourse, but there will be storylines that focus around the themes of war, disability, homosexuality and xenophobia and we understand that such gritty fantasy elements is not to the likings of some. Vulgar language may be present used by the non-player characters and players alike. We want all players to respect each other and a friendly and mature ethos is asked of people, and we hope that our game masters will not be asked to handle player-player arguments.[/paragraph:1nt8l80l]
So Far, Currently, Implemented
[paragraph:1nt8l80l]The server is compiled, upon the ArcEmu and LuaHypArc engine. Many positions have been filled and the original post has been updated to reflect this. In the end, we hope to have almost everything customised but thus far, we're only starting. Our coding teams have been working alongside the world-builders, and a new capital city has been formed and information regarding this will be released when the final touches have been made. Races and new artwork has been added, and you will be able to play as several new races and origins that reflect the return to the True Alliance and True Horde. For now, the new races are: The Scarlet Crusaders, The Dark Iron, the Blackrock Orcs, the Stonemaul Ogres. Whilst some servers think that over-flowing custom races and classes make a better server, we think that quality beats quantity. Each race has depth, lore and reason to be here. You may also notice that the racial choices are similar to what would have been present during the Second War, with elves, draenei and Forsaken removed from their respective allegiances for reasons that will be released soon.[/paragraph:1nt8l80l]
What now?
[paragraph:1nt8l80l]Expect updates on a very regular basis. We hope to release a major update once every three days, with at least three screenshots each. For now, we have some new content to share, mainly world-builds and some model edits. More information will be seen soon! Enjoy the shots![/paragraph:1nt8l80l]

Cheers for fixing it. I'm pretty much copying and pasting it from the other forums. Didn't know that some of the BBCodes wasn't permitted. We'll keep this in mind!
