World of Warcraft Cataclysm – The Gilneas 10v10 Battleground

This article provides a brief guide to the Gilneas 10v10 Battleground.

Cataclysm sees a battle for resources on the Gilneas battlegrounds for teams of 10 players. The group PvP have players start at different sides of the map and battle their way to the center to take control of resource points. The team who gets 2000 resources first wins the match. The battle can be considered an end-game event as it is meant for level 85 players.

………In The Battle for Gilneas, three distinct resource points are available for the taking by either the Horde or the Alliance: the Mines, the Lighthouse, and the Waterworks. Once any of these points is held by a team, access to nearby graveyards will be granted. In addition, workers from the controlling faction will show up to collect the resources necessary to win the battle.

Chaos will be unleashed upon Azeroth when Deathwing returns, but many steadfast leaders will see the Cataclysm as an opportunity to further the cause of their people… or simply attain more power. The situation in Gilneas is no different. Will the embattled Gilneans be able to defend their land after realigning with the Alliance? Or will the Forsaken, reinforced by Garrosh’s Horde, seize this near-forgotten territory as a new stronghold in the Eastern Kingdoms?…..

Here’s an early version of the battleground:
