I never was interested in AoC until I talked to one of their guys on a RPG Convention. What really makes it interesting are the guild PvP servers they are planning, where you can build cities and get attacked by other guilds. Not sure how they will implement it, but it might be perfect for Legion.
Also on the same event I was able to play a WAR battleground, pretty much similar to WoW, but I hope the PvP will not just be battlegrounds, that would suck.
We have to wait for more details on both games I guess...

There are actually several ways to PvP. The battlegrounds are a component
of the land control system. In this way, they are functionally different from
the pvp instances in WoW (at least back when I was playing WoW, unless
they've altered the system to make it have an impact on the game world).
So even if it is a similar game of capture the flag, the goal is a component of
a larger strategy of conquering territory, which is a significant difference. I
recommend going to www.warhammeronline.com and watching the
pvp/battlegrounds podcast andthe RvR podcast.. They explain how the land
control scale is balanced. I like the system the way they describe it. Taken as a
whole, it has nuances that WoW lacks (or lacked when I was playing). If WoW
is that nice T-Rex skeleton you see in the Smithsonian, then WAR would be the
monstrocity. Sure they're the same species, but one is more fleshed out.
that chased down the trucks in "Jurassic Park."

If they can pull this off then that will certainly change things. This is a great idea
I do so like the Chaos Chosen tho....

Well, Shadowbane has that. We're not playing that, are we? I remember
playing it briefly with some other friends of mine a while back. I think it's free
now as well.

In addition we are also thinking about a trek to Pirates of the Burning Sea. But a WAR division is definite and i dont care were going destruction. Enough of this alliance bs.

The section is there, the forums are not currently implemented. When we get closer to launch / more ppl in beta then they will be added until then there are some threads floating around.
