Attention, <a href="http://www.rgtr.com/">AFS recruits</a>! On the 13th of June (only a couple of weeks away!), <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/ncsoft">NCsoft</a> will be hosting the <a href="http://www.rgtr.com/news/latest_news/announcing_the_2008_afs_war_college.html">2008 AFS War College</a> at their offices in Austin, Texas. What's the War College you ask? We're told it's one of the AFS's time-honored traditions, which brings together strategic thinkers to identify, develop, and address future issues critical to the military organizations' success. Members of military leadership hand-pick each year's class to participate in the college and these select few bring with them battle-tested feedback and strategies vital to success in the ongoing war effort. (Read: a small number of players -- selected based on the quality of their field reports, level of experience, commitment to the cause, and game knowledge -- will get to spend some quality time with the <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/tabula-rasa/"><em>Tabula Rasa</em></a> development team and get a first look at <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/tr-deployment-10">Deployment 10</a>.)<br /><br />General Darkstarr and General British have announced the call-signs of this year's War College attendees: MrGlass, Woebringer, Line, Lanster, TankHardrive, PegasusMD, Youngblood, and Rothnang. If you know these soldiers, offer them your congratulations! (And don't forget to give them any questions you might have for the development team!)<br /><br />Your faithful war correspondents at Massively will also be attending the War College and reporting the events back to all of you on the front lines.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/05/29/ncsoft-announces-the-2008-afs-war-college/">NCsoft announces the 2008 AFS War College</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Thu, 29 May 2008 19:00:00 EST.
