Some screenshots from the last event which led Brogendenstein and its allies in a journey from the Golden Halls to Umbrick's Halls in the Underdark.

A conveniently placed portal in the end. Thanks for that!

Sadly didn't make screenshots of the UD counter attack army.
We rallied a large group to stop you from, what we assumed, claiming the fort.

The group fell apart due to internal conflict on how to approach the situation/ lack of leadership. (ambush on surface vs charge the ruins)

An ambush on the surface after we spent 5 RL hours doing the event would have really, really sucked.

Ambushing on a server transition is pretty lame imo tho.
So i for one is also glad they did not do it.

Server Transition Ambush is cheesy and not very sportmanshiply, though if they had done the "Charge the ruins", it would have been a lot more exciting and added an interesting element! Fight like a dwarf, underdarkers. :P

(Timewise of them deciding action is about an hour in, I believe Team Dwarf had only been inside Umbrick Walls for a short time.)

Didn't even consider the transition factor at the time(to exited for things to come), but it would have been bad. The transitions was a big factor in the UD group falling apart because we got split between UD and surface.

But the UDer conflict from then is resulting in some good followup RP. So the event turned out good for UD and surface i think.

It was great, and yah UDer massing in reply was kinda expected. And one attacking the other while they are in the mid of a event is all good (you shoudnt take it into account when IC deciding stuff), we dwarves did the same when underdarkers attacked the elven crypts in an event, and we had an awesome fight in minmir bridge that seemed to last forever :D

This is the best screenshot that I managed to take after we recovered the crown, sorry.

Not exactly part of the event, but more of an aftermath.
