Well, I had planned on having this out a week ago, but that just didn't happen (my computer died on me). The Elven Alliance Beta has been released to all those who sent in applications through e-mail and were accepted. If you sent in an application through PM, please resend it through e-mail (I've decided to run this thing through e-mail alone). Those who sent me an e-mail but have not yet received a response, consider your application denied (if you'd like to try applying again, do so; just write a better letter this time). Anyone else who still wishes to get the beta but has not yet applied may do so now.
In other news, I have some info on how Banner Carriers will work in the Elven Alliance. Rather than purchasing the upgrade from an Armory and then again for each battalion, you will purchase Banner Carrier units from the Armory. This unit can then attach itself to any level 1 Elven battalion to rank it up. Each Banner Carrier will only cost 250 resources, which is very inexpensive in comparison to the sum that the other factions come to. This lends to the trend that the Elves have many methods of quick "leveling up".
