Today Blizzard released the world wide WoW event "The Retaking of Gnomeregan and Echo Isles".
This event is meant to lead up to the Cataclysm story line. It has been played during this morning and mid-day and so far the event has been getting good responses from the WoW community.
The Alliance part of the event takes place in Gnomeregan while the horde part is played in Echo Isles.
Blizzard administrator Daliniya writes;
- "If you are of the illustrious Alliance and wish to take up the charge of retaking Gnomeregan as called by Gelbin Mekkatorque, you'll want to report to him for duty in the district of Tinkertown in Ironforge. Members of the noble and steadfast Horde are tasked to report to Sen'jin village in southern Durotar. No matter if you're a weathered champion of your faction, or are still learning the ways of battle, you'll be able to help in these monumental efforts to change the very landscape of Azeroth. Dismissed!"
Just dragging you feet around in Azeroth? Then this is definitely worth checking out!
