There's no denying the similarities between the Guild Lord in Guild Wars and the Keep Lord in Warhammer Online. They're fundamentally the same, whether you're involved in a Guild vs. Guild battle or a Keep assault, when you kill the Guild/Keep Lord, it's all over. In a recent article at Kill Ten Rats, the basic comparison is brought to the next level with an actual explanation of each category of comparisons, from Best Style to Best Loot System to Best Glory for the Winner.

So if this aspect of either or both games has ever intrigued you, check out this article for some interesting analysis. Then next time you head out for that main assault on the Keep/Guild Hall, you'll be that much more prepared!

There's a new FAQ at Ten Ton Hammer that looks at the keeps and sieges of Warhammer Online. It answers a nice chunk of questions that people might have about this aspect of the Realm versus Realm gameplay which was looked at in the February newsletter. The process involved in capturing a keep will be to first breach the exterior walls, then the interior walls, and finally to slay the Keep Lord.

Along the way you'll be able to use a variety of siege weapons, and both the attacking and defending sides will find these siege tools useful. When the Keep Lord is taken out, all remaining guards at the keep will despawn, and the Keep Lord will respawn as an ally to the sieging party, ready for when the other faction tries to re-capture the keep. It's a big, messy circle. Check out the rest of the FAQ for more on how you can attack or defend a keep in WAR.
